No Jalen Miller

Heard a lot about his “on ball” defensive prowess the last month.
If Pike didn’t play him tonight, gotta figure he’s not playing this year

True Frosh , has time to earn rotation time

Miller will play. Lehigh s offensive scheme wasn’t conducive for a freshman guard who is a defensive specialist in my humble opinion. Plus team has a lot of depth

Mag sustained a injury during practice and did not suit up for the game.

Mag wasn’t dressed. Had some dental procedure.

Miller I have seen in three practices and he gets right up into guys grill. I am surprised he didn't get in as well.

On ball defense in practice against the guards on our team who have the ball is, we’ll, meaningless.

Plus we were losing most of the game so not entirely unloading the bench for a players first minutes

I don’t think defense was really the issue tonight.

People actually thought the like 250th ranked recruit would crack the rotation on this year's team?

I don’t think defense was really the issue tonight.

It wasn't at first, Lehigh was making tough shots. But they got way too many uncontested looks as the game went on.

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

I get killed at relying too much on stats…but often times it really helps me understand things.

I thought individually we were atrocious defensively and got bailed out a lot with Lehigh not finishing and having trouble with our length.

However, my trusty box score said there were 81 possessions so 70/81 isn’t horrible. When adjusted for the opponent the result can be better.

offensively we need better than 73/81.

the biggest nugget from the box score squelching the concept we got beat in the boards. Despite Lehigh having more rebounds we OREB 26% of our misses and they OREB 16.7% of theirs.

when you miss 15 more shots than your opponent they will almost always have more rebounds than you.

Yes, people actually thought that because it was obvious that he would probably be the best on ball defender to apply backcourt pressure on the team

Very impressed with his really tough D last night.
