But, Jackie/Bounce, that's just it. We missed shots, but instead of making an effort to work for better shots, we would keep jacking up the same klunkers.

Second half was much better, with SK and the gang going to the hoop, but, with the ramp-up in competition, we need to start much earlier with a patient mindset.

Mick has a handle on it. I was driving around doing errands the other night and caught most of his coach's show on WLW. Most of the callers were talking about the offense and poor shot selection. Mick doesn't just include turnovers in his concerns.......he was talking about wasted possessions due to poor shot selection. He said they're going to concentrate on fixing it. He's very happy with the effort and said their rebounding continues to improve.......that Nyarsuk and Mbodj are really starting to catch on to how they want them to defend and rebound in the low post.
