The Downside - Miami

[SWC75]

(Sorry for the delay - fatigue has been an issue.)

- Their star, Matthew Cleveland is very talented but he had a free hand the whole game. While JJ was 8 for 21, Matthew was 10 for 12 from the field. We put him on the line 12 times and he made 10. That means we were trying to defend him and failing. He scored 32 points, grabbed 3 rebounds, dished 5 assist had 2 blocks and 3 steals. He had 38NP.

- Robin to his Batman was Jalil Bethea who scored 21 on 6/8 from the field and 6/7 from the line, had 6 rebounds4 assists and a block. Those two really won the game for them, not for the final numbers but for the efficiency hey showed in creating them against out inept defense.

- In a game where every got big numbers, Lucas Taylor (-4) Elijah Moore (-2) and Kyle Cuffe (-2) came up empty.

- Red seems in despair. Six games to go and he can’t get his team to play the game the way he wants them to play it.

Cleveland and Bethea scored career-highs against the Cuse. And so it goes.

Every contest we have numerous players in the game with the same limitations and the results are disastrous. When I see three players on the court who rarely score much, I realize we are going to struggle until Red makes a lineup change. And then I notice a player who is having a hot night on the bench and I slide into despair over Autry's lineup choices and the way he distributes playing time.

Majstorovic's pass into the stands was really memorable! Go Cuse!
