The record probably justifies it, while Sunday's performance does not. Altman needs to settle on his best 8-9 players and let them earn their roles. Going into the meat of the B10 play they need a more focused offense. It sucks when you pay some of these guys to come in to have big roles, but Cook, Bamba and Angel just aint cutting it like they were in some of the early games. I'm leaning towards a core of Shelstad, Tracey, Bathelemy, Biddle and Evans. Altman knows best, but if they are going to take so many 3's, the first 3 seem like the best bet, while Evans and Biddle can work high low and at least someone can crash the boards...Didn't look top 15 at home on Sunday,
Per 247
"We settled for a lot of threes," said head coach Dana Altman after the loss. "We were actually 11 for 21 inside. We were over 50 percent, you know. And again, you shoot at 24 percent from three, and you're over 50 percent might want to throw it inside. You might want to get to the rim a little bit more. They didn't block any shots."
