First of all it's the first game of the year... so as expected a little out of sync and mistakes are common but...
1) We do not have a defensive stopper...the guards for UMKC were able to penetrate and move at will.
2) We did not show we can protect the 3 ball... lots of open shots outside the arch.
3) We looked stagnant offensively no movement lots of standing around .
4) Although we have the size our big men play too soft constantly putting the ball on the floor , not posting up strong, not going strong to the basket and not being aggressive rebounders.
So in summary: we look like the same team from last year with the same weaknesses.
The positive .....
Joe Wiescamp has a nice stroke and plays within himself and can only get better.
That's it... didn't see many positives tonight but it's early yet.
