Re: Will we score 50 points?

You beat me to the punch.  I didnt watch the game because I am out of town but I couldnt believe the box score.  You will never win a game win your two point guards have 0 assists period.  I dont know what the issue is with passing but we will not make it to the second week of the NCAA's without a pg that can make that extra pass.

minutes, or about a game and a quarter. In that time they shot something
like a combined 4 of 19 (38% of the total shots UC took), and while they had
only 3 to's, they had 0, yes count them, 0, assists. Fortunately we are not
going to run in to 3 guards of that quality on the same team very often, and
having played them during the season we won't get them early in the
tournament. But we've seen them 2x's now and they have beaten our pants off
both times - that isn't an accident. Andy K said they were the best passing
team in college basketball and from what I saw last night I would hardly
disagree with him. Last night we gave effort, played decent "d," but the
offense was so pitiful that there was no way to overcome it. Maybe as part
of the 45 minute "talk" after the game, about how they had to proceed as
family for the rest of the season, Hugs might want to think about changing
the practice allocation and finding some additional time to work on the
offensive side of things. (Can Oscar work with the 2 point guards to teach
them what a point guard is supposed to do?)
