Finally had a chance to watch the game. A few things were painfully obvious!
1. The lack of energy from the get go! I understand you are trying to slow it down, but the team looked asleep.
2. The lack of a big is hurting this squad as much on the offensive end as defensive. I didn't see a single entry pass to a post player. Even when they had a man on their back. This is the easiest way to get open looks on the perimeter. I guess the guards didn't see them, which leads to my next point.
3. Parker dribbling around creates ABSOLUTELY NOTHING for this offense. Since teams know he will not score they allow the Huskers to set screens for a guy that is looking to just dribble some more.
4. Watson needs to slow down. Play under control and within yourself.
5. Shields did not attempt to post his man up once. He would only get the ball on the perimeter and teams have that figured out. Unlike how we couldn't figure out the 32 year old center was a lefty!!
I really thought we would see a more open game from the Huskers this year. If you are smaller than your opponent, you try to gain the advantage through pressure and spacing. Why slow it down so teams can get all five guys in the paint and we want to penetrate???? Andrew White is a baller. I woiuld hate to see this team without him.
