looking good so far. outside of letting them get some wide open shots, but i like the effort and pushing the ball to the rim.

Feazell & Oduro get lost on defense a lot! 2 trips in a row Oduro lost his man for a layup

When did lazy, one-handed side-arm passing become all the rage?

LOVE our aggressiveness, but our passing and ball-handling skills are dreadful. #ThanksAAU

We aren’t switching our screens very well.

This is what Villanova does with Gillespie, though. They attack the rim off pick and roll and our guys can't get there. They're taking advantage of our youth there. The adjustment is to go under the screen with our guard.

A terrible 5 minutes for us. 3 turnovers and I think only 2 rebounds.. no offensive rebounds.

We try to make too many individual plays on offense. A big reason Villanova has gone on this run is because guys like Stewart, Carter, and Woodward have tried to drive the ball and make an individual play off the dribble and took a tough, low percentage shot. Earlier in the game we were creating better shots with ball movement but we've gotten away from that. As I type this, Carter just jacked a stupid three and Villanova responds with a three and opens the lead to 12.

We are killing ourselves.

It all started with forces and bad shot selection on the offensive end. We've gotten away from what was working early.
