[QUOTE="slugboy, post: 539330, member: 282"] I’m sure one of our deeper roundball experts will write up what they saw. I’ve seen some sharp observations so far. I watched the whole game. I really enjoyed the three point lead we started with (small victories). I tried to watch the game as us vs previous us instead of us vs UNC, and did OK at that. For a while, I thought our defense looked good even though UNC kept scoring. Our three point defense made UNC take shots from way outside the arc. For most teams, that would have driven their percentages down, but UNC was still nailing them. I have to tip my hat to them there. With turnovers, we were in danger of getting run out of our own building in the first half, but we’d steal the ball back and keep UNC from scoring. We played better, and probably would have looked better against a lesser team, but had way too many errors—passes out of bounds, etc. Yesterday’s passes out of bounds looked much better than the Louisville game’s turnovers, but they were still turnovers. In the second half, recovering from turnovers stopped, and changed to UNC zooming down the court before we could get back and defend. For close in offense, UNC shoots better from 10’ than we do from 3’. Unless you have a good plan, it’s hard to win in those conditions. We talk a lot about needing 3 point shooting, but we could really use front court players who can score in short to intermediate range. We seem to only score under the basket, so other teams collapse in with 3 or 4 players and smother us. Did we hit a 10’ jumper yesterday? Did a forward score like that? I like how Jose and Devoe are improving their dribbling skills. I’d like to see some other dimensions of the game emerge for other players. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]

How many points did Georgia Tech score against Cumberland in 1916?
