In response to crd012
Its not fair to put this on Zach. The matchup was difficult, and this is not a PL team we were playing. Just maybe, the fact that we used our other bigs much less contributed (Nate S, Bruce); and maybe some more help on defense would have made a difference. Maybe not. Zach seemed to be handling the ball more in the press than the 3 was, and that spot could have been used more.
Offensive rebounds were the real killer here, some of which is luck and some of which was the simple size advantage.
And some was fatigue. More minutes played by the starters than usual, and I thought that showed late in the game. (Someone said Zach wasn't 100% with a cold). In many of our games lately we had second half surges against teams that used less bench (think Lehigh). That was reversed last night.
