Way too often our guys force shots when they drive and get close to the hoop. Rarely do they look for kick out opportunities. Todorovic the latest guilty party. We just don't take advantage of collapsing defenses

Nutall is back ... and taking a beating. Dives for a loose ball, and takes a knee in the head.
Yes, he stays in.
