The lack of athleticism

What happened to the backdoor cuts we were seeing earlier in the year? Marek was hitting Elijah for 2-3 easy buckets a game.
Every other team has seen those plays as well. Hasn’t been open in awhile

Someone said they don't have good athletes and I argued they are more athletic than last year. So YES I was arguing something someone said. They can't score and sometimes that's what happens when you have guys who can just run and jump.

Pretty sure that was you. :) You said if athleticism was everything why didn't they get crushed by Florida State. Someone said they're not super-athletic at one point......That started the UVA portion of the discussion, no?

I was just responding to that portion anyway.....I think you're arguing with yourself!! This is too confusing! I'm out!

We try it often but I am certain it’s a huge focus for defenses now. Anytime marek has the ball on the left side of the court foul line extended and Hughes is on baseline, corner side, we give it a look. It’s a simple play to defend as long as you keep a body between Hughes and the basket.
