Can anyone weigh in on the following? Fearne was talking about ball movement and āhelp others succeed.ā On multiple occasions now Iāve seen what appeared to me to be a player passing the ball off while said player was directly in scoring position. Like right next to basket, mid-air. It appears to me as though the player could just as well score a layup but instead passes the ball.
Am I just seeing this wrong altogether?
Is there something Iām missing that makes this wise ball movement?
It feels to me like players sometimes value teamwork so highly that they pass the ball rather than score. Itās frustrating to see, but I may be seeing it wrong or appraising incorrectly.
Only person I ever see having problems passing is Lucye (in terms of āsharingā the ball). He commits to drives in the paint very early, which makes him so good, but cringeworthy at times. With him being the heart of the offense, Fearne may be speaking on that directly??? Who knows.
There were at least 2 occasions in the ~5 games Iāve seen.
I canāt recall the exact circumstances. (Instant replay would sure be nice.)
The one that I remember best, the player was in a position with the ball that I firmly believed he could have just as well scored a layup but instead passed the ball.
I have noticed it as well. I feel it is a hold-over from last season where there were routinely 28 seconds of good shots passed up to throw up a prayer at the buzzer to appease Ronās asinine system.
I really want this game. Hoping this game is where we get back to where we were before that last 30 seconds at USF. This season has me feeling those Lutz vibes where we go into the conf tournament like a lion after winning some we shouldnāt and losing some we shouldnāt⦠The run up to that starts with this game! Letās go!
