you hit the nail on the head about Bil … his D sucks. To some extent he kept us in the game on O and blew it on D. We were up by 2 with 1:40 to go … T. Bil switches onto a guard leaving Skyy with the 7’2” guy….realizing the mismatch he hurries to double the big and leave the guard wide open … bang a 3 and we are down one. To quote Donnie Mac, “score and time” if T.Bil stays with the guard, the 3 does not happen and the worst case (assuming Skyy doesn’t foul) the 7 footer scores but the score is tied (instead of being down 1). Bad switch exacerbated leaving the 3 shooter wide open … “time and score” … I am sure this will be a teaching tool for CMC.
I was pleased with our heart and gut in this game … just think we were a little light in the BB IQ…Need to figure our the D rotations or run an all out O game.
