re: Must watch .. the General's post game presser!

I bet it involves working the ball inside more

Keep playing D like they have, don't take the quick shot and trying to be the hero. This team will be fine. Teachable moment tonight, you were dragging your nut sack on there face & you fricked around and almost found out.

WW wants nut sack out dragging 40 minutes, not 11-12.

Also WW gotta be gangsta because ole CBK was in the house tonight.

I really don't know how he's gonna fix the shooting. Hopefully he can. Maybe if they take better shots and can get Days to not rush his shot so much they'll start falling more. Should be an interesting 10 days for these guys.

It really is simply about taking better shots. It's great to make threes, but basketball is about creating mismatches and creating easy buckets. LSU has the length, athleticism and finishing ability to dominate, offensively (they're already dominating defensively), if/when they move the ball properly. They did that earlier in the year, but in the last few games they look like they want to prove that they can shoot from the outside (which they aren't proving much there, so far), instead of just sticking with what was working.

After they went up 29-11, they just abruptly stopped running any offense for the rest of the first half and chucked up almost nothing but threes, which not only killed our scoring, but also seemed to get us out of sorts on defense for a while, as Ohio started draining some wide open threes.

Sometimes coaches say critical things after a win, and it feels disingenuous, as though they don't want to let on that they're ever satisfied. But I don't get that sense from Will, and I would have said the exact same things if it were me. It's nice to win, and pat yourself on the back, but getting lazy and selfish on offense is absolutely NOT a sustainable formula. The break comes at just the right time. They got to it without a loss, and they get some time to refocus and get back to what they do well.
