I'll say it again, I really like the XJ, Phinisee, Galloway, Thompson, TJD lineup. Lot's of ball handling, lots of athleticism, best passing lineup, and best defensive lineup. The only thing it's lacking that coaches could/should adjust too is shooting. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cthomas Posted January 10, 2022 Report Share Posted January 10, 2022 This is playing out exactly like CMW said it would. He recognized before ever stepping on the court with this team that it would be offensively challenged. He went to the portal and found some help but knew that defense was the only way to success. I really don't understand people giving CMW grief. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Officer Obie Posted January 10, 2022 Report Share Posted January 10, 2022 All I know is that IU was tied or something in the 2nd half and I was pissed, so I went out to buy a Sunday paper, and when I returned 10 minutes later the Hoosiers were up 10. Your'e welcome. 3 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's about time that Galloway takes the starting role and we use Kopp off the bench as a shooter only in limited minutes. I don't think it's any coincidence that we played our best ball in the last 10 minutes of each half when Galloway took over for Kopp. Been the same story for the last two games. Trey is just a game changer for this team and needs to be on the court as much as possible. Agreed... If Rob can continue to knock down the open shot he is going to make an argument as well. A short bench of Rob, Kopp and Geronimo is a good mix with the occasional Durr siting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mchenry34 Posted January 10, 2022 Report Share Posted January 10, 2022 It will be interesting to see how we handle people sagging off of our point guards (and probably Bates and Galloway) going forward. I think there are some hints of what was done in game, will be exciting to see what happens with planing: - Those guys are capable shooters (not great, but if WIDE open? probably at least 35%), will need shoot with confidence - I think that the half time talk may have included an emphasis on transition (which was a bit shaky with X forcing a couple of times, wish our guys would trust that if they draw help they have done their job, and they can just pivot out of trouble and find the shooters filling in behind) - They started using Trayce with a pin screen in the middle of the lane to make it harder to double - The last few games we have done more with a small wrinkle in secondary break, using a drag ball screen to try to free up the the ballahndler...more of that with a down screen on the weak side would be great and give us the chance to find TJD early in the possession...we need to do more to occupy the weak side defenders so that they cannot focus on their help responsibilities as much A couple of wrinkles I'd like to see them put in: - Use X and Phin as screeners on the perimeter...ball hand offs to shooters...if the guy guarding our PGs is sagging the shooter should be able to come off screens from the PGs more open - Flatten out our offense along the baseline and use TJD to screen and re-screen the ballhandler to get deep into the lane and force help...or go small and use Geronimo that way and have him pick and pop once help has been forced.... - If they are going to over help on TJD, I'd love to see us use him as a back screener (or any off the ball screen) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one thing to have the guys covering them playing help defense but quickly recover and be in position to at least close out on any shot, but to just stay sagged even when they have the ball like that - that's not going to work. I can see teams doing that to Race and Galloway, but I don't know what the Minnesota staff was thinking there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My grandma had a beta max and vhs. Always thought beta max had better video quality. My dad still had his 8 track in the garage. Never failed, almost every tape had a song that stopped and you had to flip the tape over to continue. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also had to have a pencil handy to stick in the hole and rewind tape that had gotten tangled. I had a carrying case for all my 8 tracks that took up 2/3rds of the back seat of my car. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
