Lots of problems stood out today. Defensive rebounding was atrocious. 38 minutes of fair and Southerland at the forward positions won't work if they don't fight hard on the glass. Really thought we should have seen more of Dajuan in the middle of each half just to eat space.
Half court offense sucked. Southerland just could not get free and it really screwed up the spacing on the court. We cannot live on a steady diet of CJ and triche trying to beat people on the dribble drive. It's not what we do. Even though those two had decent games. I'm not blaming Brandon, but those two passes he let go through his hands were just fin killers. At least one occurred with a chance to take the lead. Gotta execute better as a senior.
Agree with Bees, CJ has become a black hole. The offense comes to a screeching halt when he gets the ball.
Michael. If he makes his free throws we win and nobody is complaining about his play. Temple did a good job of taking away passing lanes and forcing Michael into taking shots he hasn't had to take up until now. I don't really blame Brandon Michael and CJ for forcing shots today because we weren't getting much from other players.
We are getting nothing on the blocks, Rak has to get more aggressive on both ends. He's just not giving us the energy plays we need from him.
Good learning experience. Temple definitely gave us their best effort of the season. We are still settling in on who will play what roles in crunch time. Need someone to step up with a bit of mf'er in their game. Not sure who that'll be. Would love to get DC more run to find out if he can do it.
