Exactly the kind of game I’d be curious to see how we execute.  Grinding half court game.  So much of our offense so far has been playground, what will we do when the other guys our size slap the floor and square up man in the HC?  I haven’t really seen much so far that gives me any sense on how we’d perform when the screws are tightened.

I know it’s fun to watch Ross dunk like Julius Erving, but I get a lot more satisfaction in watching a well run set as a much better indicator of what we’ll need next week forward.

Hurley said it well, these guards just aren’t seeing the slips, rolls, etc that last years team did.  That squad had 5 players that had amazing awareness and vision for one another.  I’m honestly not sure anyone but Alex and Hassan have that on this years team.  And it really takes all 5 guys working in harmony to be able to execute this offense. Part of that is tenure, but you’d hope some of these sophomores would be able to cut and read a bit more like last years team did.  They haven’t show it much at all yet.  I wouldn’t expect the new guys to fully gel on it yet, but you’d hope the sophs might.
