Message: [QUOTE="InKembaITrust, post: 2435625, member: 6729"] Agree with most but disagree with a few points. On paper Jalen had a great game, but honestly he's not playing defense to his fullest potential. Missed a lot of assignments with weak recoveries. He should take some notes on Alterique's on ball defense. He wants to get into the league he HAS to start playing better defense. He also missed a lot of floaters and bunnies he normally makes. MSU did a great job keeping him out of rhythm when we were still "in the game." I would also disagree that we have no NBA players, it just LOOKS like we don't at this point in the season. As the chemistry builds and the offense is polished both Jalen and Terry can and should start playing at an NBA level. They both had their moments where they looked like they belonged out there with the big guns, its just a difference of being drafted top 10 lottery and late in the 2nd round. Lastly, your point that we [U]almost[/U] didn't have an inside game. We had absolutely [U]zero[/U] inside game. A big fat goose egg for FGs from our bigs, how often does that happen to teams?? I take inside game to mean plays from our bigs, not points in the paint which is what you might be referring to, I'm just interpreting it differently here. But my god, any high level talent we face this year can use this game/film as a blueprint to guard us the rest of the season. I'm seeing a lot of zone coming our way, Ollie better get to work...
