Amazing what playing a few games can do when you didn't have any scrimmage contests and you start getting a lot warmer playing together.

Only 21 responses? There would be 70 if we were down 1.
Solid first half. Rebounding much improved and I like them taking ball to basket instead of taking only 3’s.
See- I can be complimentary when deserved.

It’s like a lot of people on here should’ve been patient instead of claiming that we’re terrible and the seasons over. I wish someone would have posted that very thing multiple times........
Rebounding and energy was great in the first half....shooting like crap and still up 9 thanks to doing the other things...hope that becomes an identity for this team

So, how many minutes has Rojas played? He had a pretty good basket early. Is he in foul trouble or attitude trouble?
Best we have looked. I think the obvious piece of the puzzle we can’t go without is Petty. This team needs his scoring. Doesn’t have to go off every night but we can’t have 3 game stretches from him with nothing.
Rebounding energy and effort Should be part of your character as a team
I agree with him, you cannot win consistently shooting nothing but 3s every game. There has to be more to your team than run fast and shoot a lot of 3s. teams like that will win a game they shouldn't because they get hot and lose more that they shouldn't because you can't live and die out there.

But at least he is driving, I will take that. You are much more likely to start making shots at the basket than you are shooting contested 3s, I wish Reese would start taking it to the basket instead of chunking up brick after brick.
LETS GO BRUNER! Way to be physical and PUT IT BACK!!!
I wouldn't let these announcers do a Girl Scout bake sale!
His strong-suit is 3s. Driving to the basket, more often than not, is an exercise in futility.
Problem is he cannot elevate to finish any cannot use his right hand. I have no idea why our coaches did not have Herbert and shaq Spin 2 hours everyday playing basketball with their left hand tape by their back

True, last year I thought he just needed to shoot his way out of his slump, now I'm wondering if this is just the norm for him.
I am starting to wonder what value he brings if he can't hit the 3.
Maybe the Better effort in bawl movement have something to do with it? More intelligent play on the break and in the half court?
So much fun to watch when they move the ball and play together like this.

Yes for sure. And the fact that they’re learning how to play together. Said it a million times, lot of new faces on this team. Gonna take a little bit for them to gel

He has been getting a lot of rebounds lately. So that helps.
This is great to see from the hoops team. Wow
