In response to TigerFan
Definite lack of defensive consistency shown by the team, both within and across possessions. That's why their standard make-them-throw-another-p butt approach isn't working--they're OK for a while, but then a breakdown occurs. When they pressure the ball it shortens the possessions and gets the other team out of its rhythm--Morales was really good at that tonight. Bell played terrific D the second half, too. But short, quick Lehigh guards switched onto Much or another big did not work out well.
And I just cannot get used to watching a Princeton team fail to move the ball on offense. They look like a caricature of 1970s NBA at times, all dribbles and isos. Let the one-on-ones come off of ball and player movement, when the defense is out of position. Either old-school Princeton or new-jack NBA. Right now they seem more talented but less synergistic offensively than in years past.
