Jamari Thomas looks so much better running the point than Sims that it makes the whole "experiment" look very stupid. It's like Coach really wants to play Sims but can't figure out exactly what to do with him...

We have shown more movement and passing . Then wah-lah! We perform better.
Go figure.

I have to say that we looked better with Jamari, Shy and Mike being the lead guard. Mike is not bad in that role. White and Harvey played well and you can see Jamari looking a little more confident as a PG.
Our defense was not good at first. It was good to see Saab out there some. He has some size and looks like he could really help us when JB goes to bench or eventually with him some.

Sorry, but this team looks quicker and more aggressive on offense and defense when Sims is on the bench.
It will be interesting to see who Coach starts at point in the second half. Will he learn from clinical observation?
Sims is very mechanical. When the ball gets in his hands our movement on offense slows down and it doesn't matter where he is on the court. He doesn't get the ball out of his hands quickly when he passes. He tends to dribble and look around. That's why he is best when his feet are set and he shoots off the pass.
My biggest conern tonight is our "big men" are doing most of the damage scoring against a much smaller team in the paint. Haven't seen we can do that against decent sized D1 competition.

Probably the best thing I am seeing tonight is White hitting the three. If he can expand his offense and shoot from three, he can be really good. Otherwise, we're playing an overmatched DII team so it's hard to tell how this will translate.
