My One Problem With Today's Game

[Lennys Tap]

Thought our guys acquitted themselves very well tonight. Played hard and mostly smart until the final minute.

Also thought Wojo coached a really good game, one of his best.

We made great plays down the stretch (two steals for break aways) and looked like we'd overcome missing a lay up and a dunk late.

My one problem is lack of recognition by our players and probably our coaches  - we didn't even need a clean rebound off of those multiple missed free throws at the end. We had the arrow pointing our way, so when the ball was on the floor instead of trying to come away with it all we had to do was dive on it. A tie up is actually BETTER than a rebound there because we can inbound the ball to our best free throw shooters. Raise your hand if you think our guys knew or were reminded by the staff that a jump ball down the stretch was a good and safe play. I was yelling at my TV for our guys to jump on those loose balls like they were fumbles. Unfortunately to no avail. And it was killer.
