What would you work on? Rebounding. Shooting. One on one defense. Yes, of course.

I might work on plays that get Reed into the offensive flow. He hasn't seen the ball as much recently. Make sure his scoring touch is in form. Solo Ball's recent jump is sure to be noticed by our future opponents and he will garner more attention. Plays to get him open will be critical. Calhoun's double screen comes to mind.

I might add a wrinkle or even a couple of new inbounds plays. Especially something that gets the ball in and attacks the press.

Calhoun’s circle play.

If you get in foul trouble, you lose. DEFENSE. WITHOUT. FOULING.

Creighton will funnel everything into Kalkbrenner. Either have to rain threes or try to get him out of the paint

Opponents scheme to push out our movement and penetration and force later clock shots. As part of this they want ball in HD/Nowell's hands with 10 seconds or less on clock while face guarding potential pass recipients. They are not Newton who could make his own plays. Ball needs to get out of their hands when gets later in clock and whoever gets it from them should not just pass it back.

There is reason so many end of clock plays have HD with ball, opponents play to force that.

Perimeter Defense and stress the importance of driving to the hoop and not settling for the end of clock jump shot

High pick-n-roll to draw cockbrenner out of the paint and force him to play D on guards away from the basket.
I’ve never seen that happen. He seems to play drop coverage against every opponent. Now if Solo and Maybe Aidan can drill multiple foul line extended jumpers that might cause them to change defense
