Chief’s Pregame Briefs - Miami Edition

[Chief00]

The starting guards need to shoot over 16% FG and shoot less than 25 shots (unless you start James).

It’s amazing last night’s was that close. We need better recognition of who should take what shots where. The game if played the right way isn’t complicated.

Dan needs a quick hook on hero ball.

he did sit down CV during ot's. I think dh is trying to send a message. not making excuses but it is often hard to teach an old dog new tricks

Chief has been often asked by casual fans what needs to change in CV and AG’s mindset. When I answer I use a football term - ball protection. To start with they need to drastically reduce their volume of shots and move the ball more.

Effectively, their shot attempts have basically been turnovers. They have a 20-30% chance of success vs. the other team 70-80% getting possession of the ball. Even on AG shots that get blocked we seldom get the ball back since the ball gets blocked vertically down rather that side ways - so the guy blocking the shot often gets the ball.

And when CV sat, he was cheering and pushing the team from the bench. I really liked to see that.

I don’t think CV is the only problem here. But point taken.

Gilbert can't hit the broad side of a barn... from inside the barn. But, the season is young and sooner or later he's got to snap out of it and start hitting shots.

Go Gilbert! Go UCONN!!

AG is 1-3 from the field at the half, which actually raises his shooting %. Knew he'd turn it around.

Gilbert 1/3. Vital 2/5. More efficient, less hero ball. Message was received.

 

[HHusky]

Bouk 4/4. Carlton 3/3. Chiefs of efficiency

Our bench is outscoring our starters. I hope we can keep going 10 deep and run the American into the ground. Love this.
