I thought our movement off the ball contributed to this win. Finally creating choices for defenses and freeing up a lot of bunnies

I thought Owens did an especially nice job of cutting and making himself available.

He normally is, but I thought he was brutal on defense last night.  Consistently blown by off the dribble while he's trying to get into a guy 38 feet from the hoop, and fouling a 3 point shooter at a key moment.

He played all of 4 minutes before Chase fouled out. At that point, Stevens was also out.

NJ, Owens, Parham, & Ben on the floor. The options were Phillips for shooting, Norman for defense, or one of the bigs who had 2 minutes combined on the night. All I was saying is he typically plays good defense, certainly better than Phillips, and that's why he finished the game.

I agree.  I just meant that I thought Norman is normally a good defender, but last night he was not.  We don't have a lot of talent on the team, and when we get into foul trouble the options aren't great.

Shaka seems to down play the importance of free throws which is costing this team wins.

Are you saying he should remind the players to try to make their free throws?

Agreed. Not just him, though. Every single perimeter defender was getting blown by off the dribble last night. Every single one. We play halfway competent D and that game is over much earlier.
