Well, look at this way, when was our last 50 point half? And against a legit team, not a cupcake?

I saw the first half and was dismayed like most were. I also saw the second half. Both halves had poor shot selection, but in the second half a good number of the 3 pointers went in. I think the part that is on the coaching is that it looks like our offensive strategy makes us take harder than necessary shots and makes us too easy to defend. That said, in the second half we tried to get inside the arc much more although still took a few "give up" threes, which predictably didn't go in and in some cases led to points for Gtown. There is more natural scoring capability on this team than there has been in a few seasons. Carey and Hughes make a big difference. Battle can dominate games for 6 to 8 minute stretches. The defense was lazy in the first and more energetic in the 2nd.

I still have the same opinion as pregame. We are a work in progress with a pretty high ceiling.
