Message: [QUOTE="OttoMets, post: 1683475, member: 716"] Yeah, not sure I've seen this mentioned: regardless of whether we're screening, Gbinije's got to just get away from the inbounder. Sure, Pitt's committed to shutting him out of the play, but then he's got to flip that advantage by taking two of their defenders out of the play. Instead he allows the defender not only to double him but to deny Richardson a return pass. Brutal. It's so difficult to be successful when otherwise good players lack hoops IQ. Especially when they're veterans, even more so when they're guards. This is why I believe fears about attrition hurting us next year are overblown. Nice to have very good shooters and guys who can score 20 points, but replacing them with kids with basketball intangibles -- players with sense -- will represent an immediate upgrade. [/QUOTE]
