AJ has only had 4 shot attempts. If Rothschild continues to lead the team in shot attempts, we don't win this game.
Only 3 team TOs (although AJ has 2 of them), but no-one besides our two bigs can rebound.
Tough when your team has only one consistent shooter from long range. Some others who are streaky in that regard. And tough when it's hard to say anyone on the team can take it to the hole and finish strong. That's where we miss Howard. Maybe Woods can be that guy when he gets into better game shape.

Scott and Jelani Williams should eventually be filling that Howard slasher role too.

If the offense continues to stagnate, I'd expect to see either Jones or Donahue at some point, at least for a brief stretch.

The fact that Jackson hasn't seen the court yet is telling. Can't miss wide open js. The speed at which LaSalle is doubling AJ is incredible. This is where having a consistent 3-point shooter to keep teams honest would help.

A complimentary big who can finish around the hoop might help too...That cutter is there any time they want it off the AJ double.

They had all off season to work on that. Should have been priority #1 for this team.
That was the primary reason why AJ slowed down during Ivy season--the almost constant double teams and AJ's inability to find the open man out of it.

Well Max has picked up a couple of hoops off A.J. feeds off the double, so progress. This is his best 5:00 stretch of the two games so far.

No question. If he can take pressure off of AJ like that it's a game changer.

Rothschild showed how to do it. Fed the cutter Betley beautifully.

I think Eddie is about -10 today. Freshman...the free throw misses continue. Sigh.

Eddie Scott looking like a freshman on a back cut, then commits off-the-ball offensive foul and gets yanked.

Max blowing that bunny off the FT rebound - not so great.

I hope this doesn't turn into a FT shooting contest at the end. Does not bode well for our chances--on either end.

Those were the first points off of a TO the whole night for LaSalle.

Max passes up an 8 foot bunny, instead gets blocked, the Woods forced 3 goes all the way down and comes out, Pookie scored again and then Max gives it away for the LaSalle lead. Brutal stretch.

At this point, Penn not being in the bonus is a good thing, IMHO.

We have the chance of winning a Big Five game while shooting 33% from the field. Unreal.

So many blown chances to extend to a two-possession lead, capped by Brodeur’s dreadful turnover.

Rothschild should not be taking 17 shots, period.
Betley has 10 and no-one else has more than 8.
