Kilpatrick makes national team

[TheLivingLegend]

Seems to me TheLegend, once again, was correct.... playing in these games has turned into a debacle. Embarrassing losses, and poor play.

That was never your point. Your point was fear of injury let's not rewrite history.

The Legend in a round about way is always correct... Once again strikes with great knowledge and insight.

The blame for this team goes to the coaches. They decided to play a 4 out 1 in offense but didn't have any motion with it. Watch the game when SK is in or out, it's the same thing. This team was designed around the 3 point shot, which is fine in international basketball, but they barely had anyone to play defense. It was so frustrating watching the games and seeing a group of guys on the floor playing good defense only to see them get replaced and watch the other team go on a 16-3 run. The Australia game was a microcosm of this. From up 10 to down 11 in a blink of an eye.

The PGs were maddening as well. They would dribble at the top of the key for about 15 second, get the clock down to 3 and jack up a shot with no chance to go in and no offensive rebounding. If I was the coach, the second that happened, that player would be sitting on the pine until he figured out why.

Everything you just described was last season to a T

Offensively yes. Last years UC team was light years better defensively.

Thats what I meant

Everything you described offensively. We ran a 4 out 1 in(tried to) with only 3 point shooting as the offense. Going from up 10 to down 11 in a blink of an eye and PGs dribbling around the 3 point line for 15 seconds only to take a bad shot...

We did get offense rebounds though..didnt do much with them..but we got them
