The first thing I thought about is how we weren't prepared for a team to shoot over half their shots as threes. We weren't sure whether to go over, under or around picks. Our offense had no rhyme or reason to it about half the time.
As I said from the end of last season through the summer, our offense should be predicated on a two man game of Codi and Devin. The stats make it look like it was, but it wasn't. They each had a period of time when they dominated individually. There wasn't a pattern or designed sets that integrated their talents together.
Devin is a man, but he needs not to wait for the defenders to make contact after he goes under or drop steps. Against ACC teams help will come. Just go and be unstoppable.
Codi should pattern his game after a young DWade. No, I'm not saying he's that good, but the style of his game. He's a a true combo guard. he can get to the rim. He doesn't shoot many threes,will be able beat a lot of guards with his strength and quickness and still be able create for others.
Travis can be a really big part of getting us better if he accepts that he'll get his 12-16 ppg playing off Codi and Devin as creating scores out of broken plays. He has to play full out all the time and look for his spots.
Madison's shot looked a lot better. It's not as herky-jerky as it was.
Coron needs to play mostly with Codi. They should flip flop on D. Coron should play off the ball on offense and on the PG on D.
Tree and Cav were sort of victims of the lack of planning of our D. They were basically trying to cover people 18-22' from the hoop with no hard pattern to it. I was pleasantly surprised with Cav's rebounding. When Tree in we need to use him as a disruptor on D. We also need to play him more of a PF on offense. He can create open shots for the rest of the team.
As usual Moto played at 100 mph. It looked like he looked at the bench a couple of time for direction. The kid wants to play, but he's not sure what exactly he should be doing. That's the coach's fault.
Overton needs to lose about 20 pounds or so. Even though his shots didn't go in, they looked decent. He seems to have a good bball IQ. He needs get quicker.
We have pieces to be a decent team our rebounding is really our #1 weakness behind our coaching. If we can get a lot of mid-range shots from motion our lack consistent three point shooting can be overcome.
The most offensive aspect to last night's game is that our guys didn't seem to know where to be on D and the offense was weird. They want to be coached. They seem to be a close group. But damnit they need direction.
