doesn't mean you can't take a "gimme" when it is staring you in the face. I understand we don't want to make it a track meet against them.

I agree. Even w/our methodical half-court approach, you need to push when numbers present themselves

good way to finish, but I still don't like the fact that we REFUSE to take a fast break gimme when given the opportunity. Memphis can crash the offensive boards all day long because we won't make them pay for it. We had 4 on 2 and pulled it up

9 turnovers at the half hurts us and their 3-point shooting... other than that, we are beating them in every other statistical category! we need a great start of the second half and continue staying in the game!

Win or lose, everybody we play is being forced into our tempo right now. At the very least, that's encouraging.
