I thought Charmin out coached Kate last night.
Cal maneuvered to get wide open 3s against our vaunted scout defense while we pass and dribble around the perimeter and had difficulty getting 3s. Cal has lost several close games to top teams because they fade late in the game with a short bench. Instead of substituting to get fresh legs we kept the same players in almost the entire 4th & OT. Our team was tired and sluggish. We dribbled and passed the ball around and had numerous empty possessions. Then with time running out we no sense of urgency. We dribbled and passed the ball around. We didn’t press. We didn’t substitute so our starting players had to make fouls. At the end we had 4 of our top players in with 4 fouls each. We had the opportunity but did not substitute so Somfai - the player that made the 3 to send us to OT fouled out.
I’m beginning to really lose confidence in Kate’s coaching ability.
