    I really like how Crabbe is playing. He's doing more than last year when he just stood and hoped to get an open 3 and seemed afraid to dribble, but he's not trying to do more than he's capable of (*cough*Aminu*cough*). He's attacking and taking what's there, and shooting confidently when he has a shot. He's also made some nice passes and he plays well without the ball. Too bad that's not going to dig us out of this hole on its own.

    These past few games we've gotten away from the type of team basketball that looked so good in our first several games. On both ends.

    This. I expected to see a type of Golden State Offense, where they move the ball quickly and efficiently using simple but various routes with a small lineup. They're just not doing that though.

    Not enough spacing without Leonard. They have been experimenting with small lineups but then you get bullied on the glass by teams like Memphis and with Big AL.

    I agree. Losing Meyers really hurts us.

    The ball is sticking in one player's hands too much, and everyone is watching too much. With the players we have, they need to keep moving and look for passes to players moving toward the rim.

    Crabbe read my comments about Hendo taking his minutes and he's showing me what an idiot I am.

    My patented "threaten to turn the game off at halftime" reverse jinx is fueling this comeback.

    Charlotte comes back down to Earth, and we pulled our heads out of our asses a bit.
