Have watched our team in all four games. There are a lot of pluses so our fan base needs to be patient. Very few teams in the country have gone thru what we have-new staff- new system- and a brand new team. Playing together does not really happen in practice, it takes the grind of a game to play together. We have shown in a lot of ways, that we are able to do this. It takes time. Add to all of the above the teams that we are playing. Teams with lots of returning players. Yes there are some defensive lapses but this will be addressed in practice. pressing team gives up a lot. In three of our games our constant pressure with quick substitutions has worn teams down. Lets stop looking for turnovers all the time but Look at how hard other teams have to work to score. Yes easy baskets happen but our defense will improve both full court and half court. We play hard. With the exception of High Point we have competed in every game. Lets stop second guessing. Our staff will fix what is broke. Coach Al
