If you can stop us in transition and make us run a half-court offense, we can't do it. We don't pass the ball, we don't move without the ball, we don't box out and rebound well, the list goes on. Our only "offense" is either the isolation one-on-one game, or jack up a contested step-back three.
Until this "team" learns to play together and can consistently run a half-court offense, we'll continue to suffer losses like these when we play good teams.
All that said, I liked our defensive effort in the first half. Second half, not so much. It seemed like once we got down big, we pretty much gave up.
