The most interesting part of it is when Buzz says he was trying to go deep into the clock on Marquette possessions.  That might have worked but it seemed like the last 6 minutes of the game we initiated our offense so far from the basket with such little time left that we didn't get good shots.

I totally get him trying to reduce the number of possessions in the game but we had at least 4 times where we never got the ball inside the three point area in the waning minutes, let alone a paint touch.

Two issues with that:

1) Assuming your team has at least one player that can break down a defense off the dribble and get a good look in 8
    seconds or less.
2) Reducing the number of possesions is smart, but you have to score (and that means high percentage shots) coupled with
    great defense.  Our guards couldn't stop their guards.
