Message: [QUOTE="sdglast, post: 5206476, member: 9195"] I thought offensively they played well, but I agree they struggled defensively. Constant dribble penetration and guys getting to the rim way to easily. It's baby steps as far as I am concerned on offense. They needed a game where they played 2 consistent scoring halves. Pleased that they attacked the rim more, especially Solo and fed Reed. Better FT shooting as well. The rebounding since McNeeley's return has also been very good, but they still lack a defensive stopper. Stewart got beat off the dribble several times, Karaban looked very slow and seemed in a daze at times, and Ross is just lost. Nowell got beat off the dribble as well, but I liked his competitiveness considering he is a freshman playing against an experienced player like Epps. In the end, they won a game fairly easily getting balanced scoring from their starters. Let's hope they can keep it going offensively. [/QUOTE]
