00:00 Another game where I felt like the team's approach from the beginning of the game was very good.
00:07 Understanding that we needed to try to slow them down a little bit, not let them get out in transition.
00:16 We only gave up 10 transition points, which they missed some in transition, but I thought in general our focus was pretty good.
00:24 And then again, coming out of halftime and winning the third quarter I think was massive.
00:28 My concern at the moment is that we're on a winning streak and that is great,
00:37 but this is the time when you start to have some slippage creep in that gets covered up by winning.
00:43 I feel like for the majority of the game the ball is really moving,
00:48 and then we have moments where we seemingly get a little bored and the ball stops moving
00:56 and we start playing a little bit too much isolation and we start to force it
01:00 and then the environment changes a little bit.
01:05 That's not to say that won't happen from time to time in a game, but we need to try to shorten those windows.
01:12 And then that kind of bleeds into the defensive end.
01:14 I think our attention to detail lately has been very, very good on the defensive end of the floor,
01:19 and then tonight I felt like there were a few pockets where we just kind of gave in
01:26 and let them tee up some wide open threes.
01:32 Overall we played a good game tonight.
01:34 I'm not trying to nitpick the team, but it's in these moments where we really want to try to double down as a group
01:42 and dig in at practice tomorrow on tightening a few things up.
