I'd bet our halfcourt D rated out fairly well tonight. If we are talking about initial offense and what we were giving up on the first attempt.
In general, we weren't giving up a ton of open looks in straight up half court sets. They were taking challenged shots or ones where they were moved off their spots. Where we got murdered was on second chance points.
All the open looks and dunks they got were in transition or on scrambling players after an offensive rebound. Unless you want to argue that guys like West or ZaZa got open looks? Which we'll take all day.
Just gotta box out. It's that simple. We aren't good enough on D to give them 10+ second chances.
Do you realize that we weren't able to box out because our D was out of position when the shot went up?
