Take the W.
Move on. Learn from it.
Lots to improve but I did see some things I liked including the handful of times we ran PnR.
The D has to get better though. It’s not good. #mubb

Man, I really like how Adrien Stephens plays under control.
Two buckets at the rim where he took his time.
Eyes on the rim.
Conversely, Nigel James has struggled at the rim again all game.

At the 2H U12, #mubb leads CMU, 58-52.
Marquette is not shooting well from 3 in the second half.
Just 7-14 from the floor including 1-7 from 3.
All seven FG have come on assists though. Nice.

I don’t get it.
Marquette starts the half with PnR action between Zaide and Caedin. Great bucket.
Dribble drive by Nigel ends with a cutting bucket by Zaide.
Another drive and dish to Zaide.
Then nothing.
Inconsistency is maddening.

I love Shaka and his philosophy, but this does not look like a well coached team for #mubb.
This isn’t about young players.
Troubling trends:
Not getting back on defense on made baskets or missed threes. Marquette is giving way too many transition buckets.
Situational basketball.

At the U4, #mubb leads CMU, 34-32.
The defense has tightened up slightly as the Chippewas now have a 55.1 EFG.
Marquette has only turned over CMU five times.
Marquette’s problems at the rim continue though, now just 8-14 after starting 6-7.

At the U8, #mubb leads CMU, 30-25.
Josh Clark was just robbed of a tip back dunk on a Parham miss on the 3.
We will see if the zebras fix it.
Marquette with 5 assists on 9 made buckets.
5:1 assist to turnover is pretty nice.
