Message: [QUOTE="jdubs30, post: 4062610, member: 1620"] I do agree. I think offensively we will figure it out enough to score points to win. Cole had a lot of open looks and wasn’t even close. If he hits those shots, we can wins games like this - if he doesn’t? Yikes No matter how much we improve offensively, the defense just won’t ever be there. I don’t care if we perfect every rotation - we lack the athletes to be quick enough to force the other team into bad shots or turnovers. And to top it off, we won’t be able to rebound. Our best case is the offense figures it out and most of wins come in high scoring games. We absolutely cannot rely on our defense to win games. VCU is less than pedestrian on offense, and even though they looked bad, I still had no faith we could stop them. Even if catch another team on a bad shooting night, can we rebound enough to make it matter? I’m shocked we out rebounded VCU - but I think that’s more an indictment on them than it is a positive for us [/QUOTE]
