Get the ball inside...

That was my biggest frustration. There were many instances late where we should have taken the ball at Bucky. They are a good defensive team, but not so great that we can't drive/pass the ball inside. We were in the double bonus. Get the ball inside, shoot free throws, win. Period. Granted, the refs will often swallow their whistles (especially for the road team) at the end of the game, but get a higher percentage shot, get to the line, and make them play defense vs. hoping that a shot from 22 feet goes in.

I agree to an extent, but it was a block party for WI when we did. We just don't have guys that are strong with the ball down low and once they get swatted a couple times, they stop looking at the basket. I would like to see more 2's from McCabe, Oglesby and May. May does a nice job with that pull up and McCabe and Oglesby need to get off the 3 point arc and take some 15-17 footers. 4-8 from 2 is better than 1-6 from 3.

I agree, especially on McCabe. Get off the 3 pt line. Hit a midrange jumper or two, then you can move back to the arc. May too, I like when he is agressive to the lane and shoots that pull-up shot. If it doesn't go in usually another player is in good position for an o-reb, as the post defender often has to come help on May in the lane.
