Italy Game #4 (SU 82-42)

Terrible free throws. Sidibe 2-6, Guerrier 3-8, Carey 1-4. That doesn’t bode well.

Some came late and in the first half that bent rim didn't help. Sidibe is going to be a struggle all year. Not worried as much about the others aside from Carey somewhat.

Unrequested optimistic interpretation-

They all at least made one free throw. It's August. In another time zone. In a bread box with 14 yawning Europeans.

It's March, after a long season. In another time zone. Early game. In a weird arena with a raised floor, with most of the fans against us.
 
Stats that worry me without seeing the game -- Carey 0 assists. 12 total assists on 30 baskets. 32% shooting from 3. 44% FT shooting.

Too early to put too much meaning on these games. Good opportunity for players to get to know each other on a personal and basketball level. Looking forward to the season.

He had two assists. There was no stats keeping for the game so the stats that are out there were kept by those reporting on it. Carey would have had about 5 assists if not for missed shots etc. 3pt shooting not quite as good but given the court and conditions not completely unexpected. 2nd half got sloppy at times for us. First half a lot of good things.

The poor shooting late in the game was understandable, given that it was the ninth day of the road trip, the second game in two days, oppressively hot and humid in the gym and already a 30-point laugher. Tired legs = worse shooting. I'm sure the bent rim didn't help, either.
 
Wait? Did we shoot on the bent rim all four quarters?
