The offense stalls at times, but when you score 100 in a 40 min game, that isn't the issue.Something tells me there might be an upset brewing in Pool play these guys just aren't that sharp. Good thing Klay Thompson finally got his stroke going today.
In regards to No. 2 he must not watch the NBA then cause there are plenty of moving screens and you see it in college too.Coach K was interviewed (on espn iirc) regarding the team's "struggles". He made some good points.
1. This team has only played together for a month. Their opponents have played together for several years.
2. The rules are a bit different and allow for more moving screens.
I think this is why we see our defensive weaknessess exposed. It's just harder to defend.
2a. Some of the international teams play great team ball and are in constant motion without the ball. Constant motion. This in contrast to the nba's isolation business. Players like Kyrie, who some call a great 1on1 defender bc he's quick and gets steals, isn't so great defending against superior team basketball.
So there is a serious learning curve for our players after playing one way all year and now with a new group. And yet, they win.

Our guy Baye Keita used to set some of the worst and moving screens I've ever seen. Not all the Pitt guys.
The difference between Baye and the Pitt moving screens is that the ones Baye perpetrated were actually called.
Melo is really struggling from the line.
He really is struggling in all facets. Bricking threes which is all he does just camping out there. Doesn't look like he has any lift either. Fortunately Klay has picked it up.
That may be true but I am just tired of hearing that it is only Pitt who are guilty of these.
