The second unit gets consistently outscored. I wouldn't just put the onus on one player. But obviously we need help. That unit does not play good defense (even with Delfino and Hunter) and that too is a problem. They do not stop people either.

But our First Unit was outplayed but a toughened SA team. It was the same old (playoff) story--jam up Billips and take away the shooters. Now the shots are somewhat contested and we miss.

The adjustment? There is no immediate adjustment. A different guy takes the contested jumper. We finally started to will our way out of it as we attacked what is basically a slow SA unit. But then too, some wild drives and quick shots took away our momemtum.

I am not worried. We needed to have a thumping to know where we have to go. With Chris, the offense can improve.
