Get the losses out of the way. Everything that could happen this season did. All that's left for us to do now this season is win. In the process, the transition game clicked. There's a battle of wills that goes on during a game.
Bad offense leads to bad defense.
If you're running back on defense worried about what happened on offense, you're not committed enough to playing defense well enough. That happened to us at times earlier in the year. It's no surprise we had more layups in the last four games than we got in the last month. It's because we're stopping people. Now, the other team is worried about offense.
