Seeing the game in person last night, I saw great signs of good coaching. Grant has had a good effect on Williams, who is becoming a more complete player. Williams did not take a three and passed and rebounded and moved on defense. Maybe his best game this year.

Great call by Grant to try some full court and then man at the end, but our talent just can't do it on defense. Our offense is not a problem. Out defense and lack of rebounding position is a huge problem.

Great call by Grant to leave Trey and his high energy in almost the whole game. It rubs off on some of his teammates.

I bought tickets at exactly mid-court in the last row so I could watch the defensive rotation, and the offense attempts to get the ball inside.

The defensive rotations and movement on our zone looked like a cat chasing a laser dot. A day late and a dollar short most of the time. Richmond is not good and they shot 39% from three on continuous wide open shots in the corner and wing. The staff has to teach man and make the likes of Trey play it.

The passers looked inside a bunch last night. Two problems, no great post up players and our passers are too slow passing. Lots of telegraphed looks to the post and then a slow pass off target. There was some progress, but our guys have to learn to the point that they can make inside passes in split seconds. Our bigs have to post up better. Too many times Cunningham is rotating and not looking. Kostas posts up decently but turns his head away from the ball, so the guard rotates the ball. Williams was never taught by the last staff how to post up, and is clueless. Trey does a decent job of posting, but he is not tall so the pass has to be away from the defender, not high. Last night it was all about execution, which was rarely there for post ups.

Our penetration on dribble drive, led by Trey, was outstanding and the main reason we scored a bunch. DD was off shooting last night, or we would have scored 100. It was obvious from the lack of outside shot attempts by DD and Jordan and others that Grant has their ear (only 19 three attempts last night). Crutcher took two early shot clock threes, and is still on the short bus.
