That's the thing I don't get... how do you play so aggressively on defense and then play like such a passive coward on the other end of the court?
I'd be surprised if we have more than one or two plays for him to take the shot and I think it makes him a little gun shy on the offensive end. Our guards are supposed to do most of the scoring the way our offense is set up and I think that's why he usually passes it back out. He's also not the greatest help defender coming across for the block, but one-on-one in the post I'll take him any day.
He did great defending the high screens on the perimeter yesterday. Pretty darn quick for a guy his size. Too bad he can't turn that into offensive production.

Miles had 11 rebounds. That may have been a career high. He didn't shoot well (1-5) but I thought he played very well last night.

It was. Which is kind of sad. He's a senior center, a 2nd-year starter, and this was the first double-digit rebound game of his career...

I'm kind of curious what the career-high in rebounds is for freshman Davies, freshman Haws, sophomore Hartsock, and sophomore Abou...

Also was the first ever double digit rebounding night for Chris.

Hey guys, did you know that this was the FIRST ever double digit rebounding game for Miles of his whole career!? I feel like there was another first this year too...
