As many others have said, Ax is looking good. Everybody else, not so much. |

Interesting half. Some observations:
We are alternating 3 guys at the 5. Both Nathan and Dusan appear rusty.
Frampton has trouble getting his shot. I don't expect that to continue long this season.
We played some zone.
Grady won't be held down for both halves.
Generally Bob uses early season games to find out things about his team. We may not win tonight but he'll know more.
Anyone considering committing hari-kari because of our performance in the first half should just do it and save us the trouble of reading your posts. |

Have to be intentional about getting Grady looks. He’s moving well off the ball but passing lanes aren’t there on the interior. He had a nice drive late in the half. Need for him to do that more. Or some two-man game with him and JAG where Wichita can’t pressure both at the same time.
Until the younger guys get better feel, those two have to be pushing 15-20 points a game each. |

And for once I thought the officials were really good. |

Bad luck on the push shot from Grady in the lane. |

Nearly 3 minutes into half. No scoring. |

The rims do NOT like KG so far, his first shot of the game went 90% down.
We're playing stunningly good defense but giving up about 12 shots every possession. |

Unbelievable. We might as well be playing 1 on 5. |

Getting outrebounded 12-4 in the second half despite W having shot the ball nine more times. |

Tennis, that's kind of chicken-egg, isn't it? You get to take more shots when you get all the rebounds. |

You're right, I guess you could look at that either way. Neither way is good, though.
