No, it is an accurate assessment of how we have run our half court offensive sets all year.  And it isn't just one game, it has been 5 [not including the two exhibition games, where it was more of the same] where we've seen the same issues / problems manifest--too much one-on-one, and not enough execution of the half court offense--we were just playing opponents that we could dominate despite not playing cohesive offense.

That is a problem, and will continue to be a problem until the issue is solved.  Acknowledging that the team needs to jell does not change the FACT that right now, our team has issues and is relying too much on one-and-one play, despite not having the personnel for that style.  Suggesting that we would go through some growing pains early isn't an explanation, it is merely an excuse for poor play.

What happened after we cut it to 3?  Do you seem to recall us getting over the hump, or did we go on to miss free throws, turn the ball over, and blow miss inside chip shots--all of which prevented us from cutting into that lead further?

Do you seem to remember them stretching their lead back out after we cut it to 3, out to double digits--multiple times?  But hey--we cut it to 3.
