Still need to quit taking 3's with players who's ability to make them is 25% or less. Need to get the ball to the hoop with others beside Naz. Michael A had a nice game today, but much of it is inside the 3. When he gets in love with 3's we are in trouble. Garret also. Both are big enough to go to the hoop. When we go inside we have a chance.
Daniel O has surprised me, pleasantly so. He is a tall guard which improves our defense and when he goes to the basket, he is not so intimidated by the big guys. If he can improve his outside shooting and keep attacking the basket, he will be a great addition as a taller DQ type player. Not that I think he is as good as DQ, but similar with the ability to drive and shoot from the outside as a point guard. Hopefully the other freshman can grow into productive players, both driving to the basket, pulling up for mid range shots, and 3's when they are there, and play defense. Next week will be interesting to see if this continues, especially with our new guys.
