He made 2 out of 7. Not bad for a center. And he wasn’t forcing them. They came with the flow of the game.

Man do the Hawks stink. Who are those guys? The worst part is that we're not much better, although in our case I think much of it is just little boys learning how to play in a big boy league.

Yeah they do stink. But even though, this is the blueprint of how we need to play to win ball games. Great D, rebound, get into transition to start the fast break, use our young legs/athleticism to beat down our opponent, easy buckets!!!

In a league where unfortunately you live by the three and die by the two now, we have to avoid falling into that trap unless we happen to be shooting the ball well on any given game. The problem is that if we go hard in the paint, we can't hit our free throws. So a productive offensive set resulting in free throws results in 1 point for us and 3 for them at the other end. Regardless, I believe that this is how we must play until some shooters eventually arrive.
