Message: [QUOTE="pj, post: 2576324, member: 2524"] When you only have one or two guys who step up offensively, you're easy to defend. When the opponents figure out how to defend your best guy, he has a "bad game." If the rest of the team can't adjust to beat the defense, you lose. Jalen needs more around him. In 2011, we had 9 losses while Kemba was building up Jeremy Lamb and the rest of his supporting cast. He could have single-handedly won some of those games, but JC knew we'd need the other guys to win the tourney. And when it came around, they were ready. Not saying the team couldn't be coached better. But the actual record isn't that much worse than you'd expect given the personnel. Losing Gilbert did hurt a lot. [/QUOTE]
