We all know our inside 'presence' (if you want to call it that) is lacking, both in strength, intensity, and toughness.  A string bean like Sid might be our toughest inside guy right now.   In this case, struggling on the boards is exacerbated by them missing a ton of 3's.  Those long rebounds often lead to the other team grabbing the ball (if our guys are boxing out inside).

Give him time.  1. he ain't an AA.  2.  he's played like 3 games in his college career.  People seem to forget or overlook (not saying you Rich) that he's played only 142 minutes of college ball.   That equates to 3.5 full games collegiate games, minutes-wise.

Single most important part of the game.   I don't care if we get stripped.  It does not matter how you turn it over, only how often.   If we keep it to 10, that's all that matters.

Fear not.  When we lose our next game.  Despare will be back in full force.

We will need to keep the turnovers the same, and play (better) solid D.  Whatever happens with the offense, happens.

Hurley is still learning this team, and these guys.  People overlook the fact that he hasn't had these guys for years.  He doesn't know them inside and out.  He hasn't molded them to his ways.   It's going to take experimenting.  He's slowly working it out.
