Re: Game #29 vs Arizona State

Usually after a loss I'm upset but this team is such a joy to watch. I think Tommy did the right thing by starting the two senior role players. It will mean more to them in the future then any of us know. It also means more to their teammates to see these guys get some rewards for their hard work. ...

I'd look at what went wrong (not enough defensive intensity, not enough scoring, not enough guys who could run the offense) and look at the three guards that Lloyd has pulled in and see if that isn't the exact answer to those problems.

Free throw line extended shots need to be taken by our bigs, including Tubelis and that should open up the offense to allow for some open 3s and less contested shots in general.
