Message: [QUOTE="Madbiker, post: 148258, member: 312"] The natural inclination when they get ahead 18+ points at the half is to take the foot off the gas and just coast. Against the pre-conference teams that works. Not good against BE teams. I don't think it's so much a drop off in defensive intensity. It's more they get sloppy on offense with bad shot selection and careless unforced TO's. They start taking shots they normally wouldn't in a tight game that leads to run outs and easy buckets on the other end. Before you know it, 10 points has come off the lead. JB needs to find a way to keep the intensity up the first 8 minutes of the second half. [/QUOTE]
