I was sitting there saying the same thing, but LU didn't play their main squad, or did they? I hope not! But anyway, they will get their team chemistry better as the season progresses.

Yep, the receiver can't get the ball if the QB can't get it to them

[Hidden Content] [/quote] Ok _ now I understand- Heretofore, I was under the impression that real basketball involved the collective skills/abilities of a group of five players co-ordinating their efforts on the court.  But now I readily see that real basketball consists of spins, shake and bakes, and scoring on your own whenever you feel like it.  Ray Allen and Alan Iverson came out of college at the same time.  Isnt it interesting that the "non real" basketball player is still playing at the top level and the "real basketball" player is not? [/quote]Iverson? No-oooo!!The kid I uses as an example is a team player. But at the same time, he does have the skills to be successful. And yes, Ray Allen is a real baller
