1. We are an ugly team. And we are flat out bad on offense. This wasn't Louisville we were playing against and we still just can't get much done offensively. Really poor and sometimes bordering on embarrassing.
2. But...we play really good D. The guards especially are just so solid - they are so big and recover to so well that they are really hard for teams (especially mediocre teams) to deal with.
3. One important coaching point - JB moved MCW off the ball in the last 5-6 minutes when Cal pressed and I bet we'll see that against pressure from now on. Triche is pretty solid bringing it up against pressure, but struggles big time to get things done going to the hole. MCW is the opposite - he'll give it up against pressure but he can make plays - not perfectly but reasonably well - in the lane. Makes sense to flip flop them good call by JB.
