I thought the game started at 7:00 😠


Who comes up with 6:30 start time?

The most concerning thing to me is that ETSU is able to get to the rim really easily. The only thing is they can't do it without missing, turning it over, or getting their shot blocked, unlike NC State. We have to get better at stopping the ball.

I want to understand this so bad. Can anyone help me? When I played basketball, the easiest thing to do and understand was a press. It’s not like Kim has several different presses. And our offense is isn’t rocket science, we stand around and go one on one. We’ve ran one set tonight, the horn set. Like 10 times! 😩🥴😂 what’s difficult about her system?

Observation: The post play has been non-existent. I know some will say it doesn’t matter they’re up nearly 30, but it’s kind of a little worrying. We couldn’t establish post play in the NC St game and having trouble in this game on a smaller team.

In Kim’s system I’m assuming you don’t establish post play because it’s supposed to be a 5 out? At least that’s what some posters say.

i’m just going off what players have said. coop has been very vocal about how difficult the system was to learn.

The roller coaster that is Cooper seems to have cooled off. Her facial expression in the last time out looked like she is frustrated by something. Not sure with her. Saw similar body language last year. Could be just me ...

They know concept of the press, but have trouble with what angles to take to execute the press.

It feels like teams see that we're happy to keep putting up 3s when faced with a little bit of zone or sagging man, and we just don't really seem to have many plays (at least yet) other than to drive in a few feet then kick it right back out.

That was a nice play that last possession though - the Hurst assist to the Barker layup.

Yes, 5 out. But that's the starting point. You should have the players screening and cutting through the lane. And, if you have a mismatch, stop the cut down low and demand the ball.
