Nobody on this year's team follows their shot. The shot goes up. Four guys run the other way. If someone happened to be in the post at the time and the ball bounces in a fortunate way, we may get a rebound. Everything else becomes a rebound for our opponent.

That has stood out to me this year also. Are they being directed to head to the other side of the court as soon as a shot goes up? It also seems that when a loose ball happens, our guys just head that way to play D. Probably haven't lost out on as many 50-50 balls because our guys are never around to make it 50-50. Are our guys so slow to get back on defense that they need a head start? If so, then we have bigger problems in the near future than people are stating. I mean, of our starting lineup, who needs to be removed to make our defense good enough to fight for loose balls and rebounds? Or is it all on Darrell Davis who's leaving anyway? The Flyers cannot continue to rely on getting one shot per possession next season and beyond.
