Gotta be quick.
Has Chukwu experiment before the end of November?
TRob followed the USC game with this? Not cool for a senior.
Thought DC2 played really well on offense. Disappointed with his rebounding but there weren't that many shots to rebound. Good to see him finishing consistently. If this team is to make noise, he has to be a contributor.
The weakness for UW is with their interior defense. We desperately need a PG who can get the ball down low consistently. When UW used a 6'3 guard on TL, we should have posted him up down low every time down the court. If the staff is too dense to notice it, the PG should. And TL should know enough to just do it automatically. We can't let teams defend us by putting a guard on TL.
That was a B1G crew and you could tell from the opening tap. UW knew what they could get away with and played the refs as beautifully as they executed their offense.
No one played well on defense but when TT was in, I bet UW got a dunk over 50% of the time. He has to rotate better. Was just abused out there every minute he was in.
JG and AW were almost as bad up top. Rarely covered anyone on the perimeter. Rarely tried to take away entry passes to the high post. Spent a lot of time in places where they didn't help on defense at all.
Was tremendously disappointed with how we chose to defend UW. You keep a body on Happ at all times. When UW got the ball to Hayes just inside the FT line, let him shoot. Do not cover him...he was looking to pass 95% of the time. Mostly to Happ. It was bad enough this happened all the time in the first half. It was inexcusable to happen all the time in the second half. We should have taken Happ away and #24 and not worried about their role players. Yes, Hayes would have scored some but I would rather have him shooting 14 foot jumpers than Happ dunking every time down the court. I hope this was more a function of all the players inexperienced in playing the 2-3 than anything else.
FH is a really good athlete and is probably our best defender and definitely our best passer. We need him out there. When he gets in foul trouble or dog house trouble, it has a major impact on the team. Don't know exactly what he did to end up sitting so much (yes, he made some bad decisions, as did everyone) but wow, we are lost without him out there. He needs to get his head right.
What were the UW fans booing all the time? Were they all drunk?
