[QUOTE="Ken, post: 1568552, member: 87554"] Trent played basically the entire game and had zero rebounds as well . Our small ball style is getting whupped by teams also playing small ball because they are simply able to get more skill on the floor. When you are running small ball rebounding is going to be a issue but to me an even bigger issue is that we run small ball and cant shoot free throws ,struggle with ballhandling and short creation as well as three point shooting all the things that starting 4 guards should be giving you . When you consider that none of them play above the rim and Ayo is the only elite finisher is the only elite finisher of the group followed by Curbelo and you have problems against top level competition with true sized wings . Im not even sure how you can counter to cover for these things with the rosters current health situation . [/QUOTE]
