RIverside plays to their script very well - deliberate. They defended outside pretty well

I just thought, for this game, CDM would get more time from Rotegaard and maybe play Scott a bit, to stretch the rotation of players and reduce some minutes

almost the opposite, rotation down to almost 7 players, then almost 6 in the 2nd half.

that's a small rotation for 3 straight games.

still, two main things - Slater's shot has been off, slow starts to begin games,

positive: Roberts mid-range game has been really good, Murray solid, Mansel the last half of conference has been consistent and cut down errors a ton, really big without Hampton

still wish we moved ball better, just to get Jones more looks, but it is, staff wants the ball in Slater and Murray's hands 80% of the time - we play a lot of isolation, the best thing about these guys vs past teams is the guys really know their spacing better, which avoids the TOs

one thing about this team vs. the fab four, better FT shooting, which helps in teh clutch
