3.the zone...i'm not sure why we didn't use it more in the first half. i was thinking it might be that we go to it after made baskets and we didn't have many of those in the 1st half. but still, it seemed to obvious to me that they were easily breaking down our man to man and that the zone was more effective and i wasn't sure why we didn't use it more in the first half.
I really don't think minutes are an issue anymore. when we gripe about minutes, its over the 82 game grind. What is more important than 44 minutes a game is letting this series slide to 7 games. They have ample time to rest.
Development time is over. This is what we are bringing to the table. While the bench wasn't spectacular, they proved their worth in game 2 when sheed and webber got into foul trouble.
