It's incredible how basketball is never really talked about in any of these threads. It's always about one individual or another.

With that out of the way, we have to do something about the way we start games. The team with a few exceptions comes out wound so tight that it takes us minutes to get into the flow of the game. Coming back from double digits down regularly to win isn't a sustainable strategy.

Also, allowing a player to score 20 points in the second half if they aren't a star player seems like poor game planning or adjustments especially when said player is a center who plays back to the basketball. Being inflexible with your defensive game plan also is non sustainable long term (read: Syracuse).

Lastly, another bad shooting night did us in... if the 3s are going in we win if not we lose it's looking more and more clear that we don't really have another way to win which could lead us to #5 or a first round loss....But we are who we are.
