    Not just you. They've finally cut down on all the silly mental mistakes they were making earlier this season. We have solid defensive personnel and enough offensive talent to still play like a top 5 or top 10 offense.

    Still want to see us against an elite offense where being solid might not be enough and where we may have to throw different schemes and looks at them.

    I'd say Roco and DJJ are finally learning to use more schemes than they did with virtually no training camp.....it does seem like guys are learning where teammates like to be on the court...all these things are making us a better team...I like what I've seen
