@marshhawk
I think the concern here is the statement that was made by Coach Self that he(Alexander) has dealt with this before and that it "usually" goes away in a few days..... Which implies its somewhat common for Cliff. Which would be bad news

Ill be happy to see it. But im doubting it. Perhaps a few minutes today at best. But, who am I? I know nothing. :)

Im wondering thoughts on what a game like this does for our team defense moving forward. Another poster suggested that the defensive rebounding as bad as it was still didnt allow many second chance points. I cant say im completely in agreement. I think we win by 10 plus if we rebound better. And personally 2 second chance points is 2 too many in my book. That said, I like the fact that we had to grind this game out ugly. Play defense late late into the shot clock on multiple occasions, and then not get the rebound and have to do it all over again. When the players see film on this, do they see that they can in fact expend tons of energy on defense for just about as long as they want?? This could be good moving forward. We all want to see this team lockdown. Im hoping this was a huge step in that direction. It may just be me, but ive always felt the longer coach Self is here, the more he becomes the master of coaching today in a manner that gets him what he wants. Not tommorow, or maybe the next day, or even next week, but weeks down the line when it matters more. I think he has found ways to adjust how he coaches in early season in order to get the team closer to their ceiling at the end. And... He seems to do it his way and still keeps the team winning.

How exciting is it that every game feels huge right now? I like the 10 team league for that reason. Ready to enjoy every minute of the ride. Its likely to be bumpy. But, Im pumped to see where the league season and Coach Selfs tactics take this team from where they are right now. Having said that, I sincerely hope Ellis doesnt spend much more time "out of it". Rock Chalk!!
