re: Honest Assessment of the Basketball Team...(long)

Agreed. I've noticed the lazy passes, too. Today I saw a two-bounce bounce pass from the point guard to the top of the post.

Here's another thing about our man to man offense. The play starts with the point guard passing the ball to the wing and cutting down the side of the lane with a pick at the high post from Mickey. Watch how lazy the pick is and watch how lazy the cut is. The look to the cutting point guard is designed to be the first scoring option on this set. That play is open if our guys would just put some effort on both ends of it. But we don't ever look for it. And this team, when its struggling to score could use an easy bucket to get going.
