OK, Mercer has a 5'8 power forward. I am interested in seeing his post up moves! BTW, I have been to their last 2 games and have yet to see Nick post up or play the power forward position. Who would he post up or out rebound? The cheerleaders?!?

 

perhaps I have found your problem!:thumb:

Mercer basically plays with four guards and Taylor. There is no "power forward". I think bad freethrow shooting is what has cost Mercer from being 3-0, not bad decision making.

You got the freethrow shooting part correct. Taylor has got to improve his freethrow percentage. My guess is that it is around 40% or so. Not good for someone who gets fouled as much as he does.

Bad decisions = bad passes, loafing after a bad pass, blaming another player after a bad pass, driving into the lane for a 1 on 3 contested shot at least 5 times in the 2nd half of Tuesday's loss. Not good decisions!

I didn't see all of this. Looks to me this years team has a much better attitude and team chemistry than in the past several years. In the two games I attended, I thought all the players were working hard on the floor and I haven't seen anyone play the blame game. I must not be paying attention:sleep:

Your right! I have not seen any of the crap that went on last year. What I meant was that player A would make a bad pass to player B and then blame B for not making the catch. Sort of like player A could not possibly make a mistake.
