Message: [QUOTE="arbitragegls, post: 118133, member: 302"] ...well that was easy...'Cuse rocked GW...Dion presented himself a nice birthday present...the team played awesome defense and leaving Waiters out...scoring was balanced...steals were high...assts on 67% of buckets...FT shooting was awesome...[B]AND 3pt shooting and rebounding sucked [/B]as well as half court [B]flow to the bigs[/B] 'Cuse is a very good team...and team meaning balanced scoring and very good defense and all that brings to the party...but 3 glairing weaknesses in this game and in previous games may cost 'Cuse the NC if not fixed quickly: 1. What on rebounding...any team...even much smaller teams...are beating 'Cuse on the boards --FAB is playing better...but hasnt increased rebounding vs. year ago that much --Christmas has presented any presents on rebounding...is he on the court --Fair is inconsistant on grabbing boards...sometimes yes...sometimes no --Keita has either regressed and or is hurt..his mitts have to be hurting 2. 3 pt shooting is terrible...we need to be 35+% better and that is going to be a stretch for 'Cuse to reach...although for season we are close...we are not canning enough of these to offset weakness in FT shooting and rebounding 3. Half court flow to bigs is not good...with Melo, Keita, and Christmas shooting % good, 'Cuse continues not to throw ball into bigs often enough...and not sure we know how to get them the ball---we are a guard-wing oriented team...which is okay...but 'Cuse could be better working inside-out particularly with bigs shooting % These are the 3 areas we need to improve...if we can improve any one or two of above, I believe we will be crowned in March...what do you think?
