[QUOTE="Techster, post: 283202, member: 360"] Someone said it earlier in the thread that UVA is a good team to watch, and I caught myself thinking the same thing. They are just so efficient with their possessions. They don't make every shot, but they just don't shoot themselves in the foot. No cheap turnovers, they make the extra pass to the right guy, and their players are so fundamentally sound. Each guy plays within his game. I think Corey Heyward kinda showed what you have to do against UVA. Space out the floor. Drive to the basket, let defenders collapse, and find the open man. Whoever's guy leaves him to help on the guy with the ball needs to make himself available for the pass. Lammers took a step back to get the ball and was able to slam it home off the pass. We needed to do more of that. If the UVA collapses, and you can't find the open guy, draw the foul. Didn't see much of that. I thought we played well for the most part. There were 3 stretches we couldn't hit shots, and we just didn't take care of the ball with stupid passes and give aways. That did us in. We would have a nice stretch of basketball but would follow it up with a stretch of carelessness. Overall, a better showing than most thought. This game is exactly why the VT game was so important to steal...it gives us a cushion. We're under .500 in the ACC after this loss. Now we have another 2 games against REALLY good teams coming. Hopefully we can take one of those games. [/QUOTE]
