I am rewatching the game on espnwatch now. The game was not as lobsided as it seems. Cincy dominated the insides with points in the paint. We had little success scoring around the basket. Offensively, your bigs scored at will.
You have one weak link: Dewberry. He's got great hands and length but he is out of shape. Upon receiving a feed inside, he takes a long time to gather himself. As a result, the he susceptible to getting stripped by weak side help and doesn't have the leg strength to get his shot off. Cincy is better off posting clark or the other 6'10 230 pounder. |

I liked the zone defense Larry Davis went to at the start of the game. The problem was, he didn't know when to get rid of it. After VCU started to beat the zone one or two times, I would have ditched it. Problem is too many VCU guys penetrated causing help which caused the wings to be open for 3's. Exactly what VCU wanted to do. They spread our defense out real nice and capitalized on everything.
I'd like to see UC go down low more often too. All to many times, our guards missed open players either rolling from the pick or posting low and sometimes the guards threw the ball after the player was blanketed by a VCU player. Throw and score low and when VCU starts to focus or double team, then dish outside to Cobb or Caupain or Johnson. Johnson has done next to nothing. He misses frequently from 3 which is where we count on him. Johnson needs to produce each game with 10 points and a couple of 3's. In many causes these players are not productive. IS that the coaches fault? Sometimes. |

I think the thing I miss most about SK was his ability to move without the ball and get open. So many times, I see our guys standing around and doing nothing on offense while one person dribbles. We need more movement, that is the key.

Senior starters playing 25 minutes without scoring a point is exactly the kind of problem we always seem to have. Why does he get a pass? We needed him to win a 1st round game and he delivered 0 points. The diamond in the rough types only have so high of a ceiling. We have seen that over and over again.
