2) Boarding, credit Bake for the tipping drills, and manning AT like crazy, but to not have our guards keep releasing so nobody was ever near a Bake tip? I was like where are our players, it looked like we had only 3 guys on the court on a lot of those. Barnes is smart, watch tape, and tell your guys to tip and see what happened. I get we want to break, but trying to reobund 2 vs. 4 constantly?
3) Defense though I thought was superb, JOnes was an animial, with 8 minutes left and in, AJ was told to deny Higgins and Higgins dissappear, reminescent of the advice against Davis to just box and one. I like it when the staff just says, "this guy will not touch the ball" and guys execute it. Can't wait to see that vs. AJ and SB.
4) AT's FTs, last few games he's gone from a 55% shooter to a 85% shooter. wow, knew he had it in him, now if he can hit that long awatied jumper
5) AJ iso vs. Tsohonis iso. wow! that was great
6) Thought Tsohonis played a smart game and guarded his guy hard
7) this team has that higher ceiling still.SIlva needs to hit those WIDE OPEN 3s, good shots, but man has to hit those
8) I though first 10 minutes of 2nd half was lockdown D, and the perimeter was shut down
9) team has so many offensive weapons, IMO more balance than anyone in the league along with IRvine. Jones, Tsohonis, AT, LT, AJ, even Messiah all capable of putting up 20 points and always haveing 4 or 5 guys over 10 points. No one pt guard but increasingly the committee of Messiah, AT, Tsohonis, & Silva to handle the ball is working progressively more. And Tshonis seems to be a bit better understanding a role to distribute at times.
