we were playing excellent, but no way that's the case last few minutes where we've been ourscored, and I think every basket over Drew, like 6-7 in a row?

15 minutes great ball. 5 minutes of lack of execution on DEFENSE primary Timme

[spike_jr]

Disagree. Short of 3 missed assignment s(6 points) and 2 out of this world 3 point shots (6) points we have held them to 19 points short of those issues

I don't know Hoop, on pace to give up 82 for the game. Granted, the pace is fast which equals more possessions, but 41 in a half to SCU isn't good.

Sums it up pretty well. We all love the offensive fireworks but giving up 41 points to SCU? I know they're not chopped liver but we've got to do better than that

[zagzilla]

Still on pace to score 120

SCU does not suck on O, they have some weapons. Our screen roll D suffered down the stretch, not sure what the plan was. If the guard allows himself to get picked off on purpose, then Drews is left 1v1 with a ball handler, got torched. No hard hedge, no jumping the dribbler, no weakside help, just Drew left out to dry. It did not work and SCU went off

It’s WCC

yep, that's what I said

Drew only has one foul, he can get REALLY agressive in this 2nd half.

[caduceus]

14 assists. Not bad.

[whatazag]

Don't feel the guards are making enough (or any) effort to get Chet the ball down low. He is working for position and not getting rewarded.

Santa clar is 48th best team in nation for offense. With adjusted offense rating of 110. Holding them to 41 is not shabby considering at least 16 points were either defensive error or amazing shots……….meanwhile holding them to 40 shooting and 30% from 3 is not too shabby to be honesat

I saw several opportunities that were missed need to ensure he gets into the flow

[zagzilla]

Doesn’t seem like we run many plays for Chet. He gets his in transition or off of putbacks as opposed to half court sets. OTOH, we run tons of set plays for Timme

Thanks

I use Norton internet security which has a feature to change my VPN. On game day, I change it to Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Works fine. Otherwise I'm always in market

Thanks for the tip, that worked for me.

Watson once again showing his value. Leading in rebounds with 7 leading in steals with 2. and solid shooting on 3-4 shooting…….
