I know a lot of people on here weren't big fans of Batten, but he was a physical guard that wasn't afraid to attack the basket. We need that balance of having spot shooters with guards that are also willing to attack. I think ODU has gotten themselves in trouble in games this year when they settled for jump shots instead of attacking.
You are right. Attacking the basket is very, very important. Bacote has also been doing more of that lately, and I hope he continues to do so. There's no substitute for it when the long ball isn't falling, which for us is more often than not. Attacking the basket collapses the defense, draws fouls, and can result in three point plays. I'd like to see more of it myself.
