A few days off before the JJJ vs Wemby battle

3J will have to make Wemby earn every possession and not get himself into foul trouble in the process.

We have to be leading the league right now in techs due to arguing phantom/bad foul calls.

Also I know we are missing a lot of key guys and the opponent's shooting will eventually regress to the mean, but we may just be bad this year.

Nice win...Well played coaches and team!

Glad to see JJJ take it upon himself to close the game out in the fourth - he consistently got the ball and put pressure on the defense by driving to the paint and initiating contact in the beginning and middle of the fourth quarter. Once he needed a break, Jenkins was smart enough to bring Bane back in for the same purpose and was staggering them - Bane messed up and picked up his 4th and 5th foul in quick succession though.

If we have any hope of winning games while Ja is out, then JJJ and Bane have to realize it is on them to close the game in crunch time - demand the ball and go at the rim, don't give the defense a break by pulling up from outside every time; of course, we also have to play well enough throughout the first three quarters to give ourselves an opportunity in the fourth.

Our guys came up big that second half. JJJ breaking out of his funk was huge.
