1) Where might we be if we had Tracy, Leron, and Thorn all playing?
IMHO, still not a great team but capable and likely to have won many more games.
Possible tournament team.
Thoughts?
2) Why do we only have 1 or no players anywhere near the basket when we put up a 3 point shot?
Seems to me if somebody crashed the boards, other than Morgan or Finke who are usually boxed out, that we would get some offensive rebounds and second chance points? I don't know why guys don't follow their shot (like Roger Powell Jr. in the NCAA final four for example). Seems the ball either comes straight back in the direction it was shot from or straight off to the far side more often than not. Why doesn't Groce insist a couple guys crash the boards. It's not like we are in danger of giving up fast break points, even so a couple guys can drift back on defense. Just frustrates me to watch us have no one in position to rebound and then I see our opponents have 4 guys under the basket for rebounds and garbage buckets.
