31. "Let’s see what the second half of the season brings." In response to In response to 0 Wed Mar-10-21 01:55 PM by allStah
I didn’t like the way we closed the first half of the season. The last three games we went 1-2 and gave up 124 points against the pelicans in the last game.
We have to do better with protecting the ball, especially in the backcourt. That is the main problem, costly turnovers down the stretch have killed us.
And we have to get better on defense. Scoring is just one aspect of basketball. There must be a focus on defense as much as there is a focus on offense.
There is a log jam of losing teams in the east, and we sit within that jam in 9th place. So we have a shot at making the POs.
I’m still not sure as to who are the long term pieces on this team. Zach is offensively gifted, but the defensive and turnover woes are alarming. Let’s see if he can get better in those areas to bring a completeness to his game.
And Lauri and Otto need to stay healthy.
