Akron Thread
Good start starting out. Flyers playing aggressive and forced a couple turnovers to start. 7:20 in the 1st and UD up 7-3.

Halftime and UD is up 42-36. Jones leading all scorers with 9 points. Akron has a couple scorers in double figures. UD with 7 turnovers but that's much better than the last game.

On the other hand they have little interest in playing defense. Akron is passing the ball into the paint at will.

Unforced turnovers keep killing us. Decision-making gotta get better. Part of the bad passing is no off ball movement. Passing to static targets where the passes are telegraphed.

25 fouls. We are a fouling machine. We are averaging over 20 fouls a game. It's unsustainable. Most of the fouls are unnecessary reaches not defending straight up and bringing arms over shooters heads. Need to defend with feet.
Stats through three games:
UD/OPP
FTA 40/80
FTM 29/56
TO 60/36
POT 21/69
We have been outscored by 75 points in three games just on FTs and TOs.
Its all coming down to fouling too much and turning the ball over too much. Easy cheap points at the stripe and in transition after bad turnovers. It probably gets worse before it gets better. I feel for Meek. Imagine being a player of her caliber that likely never made this many mental errors in a 4 year career see it accumulate in every game.
Perez played 6 minutes and had 4 fouls -- almost all of them reaching over on players heads and arms while they were shooting. Cant have this from our lone post player. Need to go straight up and push the player 3-4 feet out from their comfort zone inside the block. But that takes lower body strength.

I expected more rough commentary anyway they've got to learn to defend the backdoor and pick and roll - it looked like a clinic for Akron and I realize this is another opponent with experienced players from last year but its fundamental basketball. 1-1-3 rotating zone befuddled UD into quick shots many of them poor forces. Best thing on offense, the inside play from Wheeler off the bench. Flush this one prepare for Thursday.
