[QUOTE="YlJacket, post: 864032, member: 2784"] I was wrong before the game thinking they would focus on the perimeter. We made more 3 point shots than they did. They sliced and diced us with really nice offense between Mutts and Aluma inside. Both between them to score inside (Aluma with 24) and some really nice inside out kicks to shooters in the corner. I generally don't care if CJP goes small but last night I thought he should have played bigger. I will give him that we did get TOs from VT with some pressure, but they shot 60% in the first half for an unrecoverable 46 points and cruised to over 50% for the game. When we did play man, they were blowing by us with regularity. CJP even tried J Moore for 7 min in the second half to see if he could stay in front of someone. On offense I will give CJP credit that he went away from the Princeton when Howard was in the game and ran it mostly with Usher at the elbow. and tried to run motion with the other 4 around the perimeter. Problem was K Moore's guy never went with him and generally stayed in or near the paint. So while Devoe did play some hero ball, multiple times he got the ball with not a lot of time left and tried to drive only to find multiple defenders waiting. Note that VT defenders did a good job of not jumping when defending Devoe - scouting report is simply stand your ground and let him do all his feints around you. That said though, Devoe did launch some shots from beyond the parking lot - has to be frustration. There is a reason Young is considered one of the best offensive scheme coaches in the ACC - and we saw it last night. They got a lot of easy shots for their guys where they wanted them. Some just some simple ball screens on the zone. We don't get those types of looks and have to grind out everything on that end. It wasn't pretty and I have to admit it was disappointing to watch. We have some major issues to address - both players and scheme. [/QUOTE]
