Hoping to see this team take a step forward tonight, last chance before Maui.
Defense:
Players that need to step up:
Mitch Solomon: Stoup fouling. play fundamental defense and be aggressive offensively
Hammonds: needs to find his offensive game and REBOUND
Waters: Slow down a 1/2 notch and he can be a smooth offensive player with the wingspan to jump alot of passing lanes
McGriff: continue rebounding, but look for more opportunities in the paint offensively.
Shine: put the ball on the floor instead of settling for 3's.
Jawun, Carrol, and Forte have done everything I could expect of them so far.
Looking forward to the game tonight
Defense:
- Less fouling
- Continued defensive intensity with less 'breakdowns' including quicker close-outs, better help D, and tighter man
- More touches in the paint, when we cut through the paint, cut with a purpose. Guards have to be willing to make those entry passes.
- Stop settling for 3's
- Less perimeter dribbling, more high-post/cut passes
- Continue to push the pace and remain the high intensity flow
