We have two teams. One led by our upperclassmen guards and one of our underclassmen.
I have no idea why but Rob has never pushed pace even though I guarantee you he's the fastest guy on the team. He even had a breakaway with Nunge running backwards....and he slowed up and looked around not sure of what to do.
Drives me nuts. Has always driven me nuts and it's ugly basketball.
With Lander coming on, you see us play at a faster pace that actually takes advantage of our strengths as a smaller but quicker team.
It also increases our energy on defense.
The freshman erased not one but two double digit deficits against a top ten team.
That's the type of basketball that Archie promised. Fast pace offensively with a tough defense.
My point, I believe if we can increase our pace offensively we're going to see an offense that can break down a defense. In other words, it changes us offensively for the better.
I keep waiting for Rob to start playing and stop thinking but Lander is starting to get it and that changes things.
Other notes, Race is developing a unguardable right handed jump hook. Race is still like a bull in a China shop trying to score in traffic but that jump hook is a thing a beauty and makes him a real offensive threat.
No doubt about it, Franklin has onions. We need a killer with a chip on his shoulder. Aarman is looking the part with two straight clutch isolation plays with the clock running out.
For those worried about next year, Race's drop hook in the post, Aarman's onions and the freshmen class are reasons to be encouraged.
