One of the most alarming things to me was that our offense got to the point that Joseph couldn't be trusted to dribble the ball up court even without any pressure, and yet we still tried to rely on just dribbling the clock out and letting a guard create.  This team is so blatantly desperate for Christmas to get the ball when we need a bucket at the ends of games.  I was so pissed off at this team not getting him the ball that I couldn't even bring myself to cheer when he finally got it on the last possession and won the game for us.  It's one thing to be careless with the ball, and it's one thing to be young and inexperienced...but it's another to be completely unprepared for common game situations.  Everyone on the team should know that when we need a bucket, Cooney should have the ball and he should dump it into Christmas so that they can't double down on him without giving up a wide open shot to Cooney.  We're like 5 games into the year, and there's already been at least 2 or 3 games where we've looked completely clueless at the ends of games.
