Once Myo and Brock were in, we were able to slow down the bigs and our offensive flow was better. Good minutes from Chen as well.Actually, Ritchie made an exception to his 2 foul rule and put Myo back in for a while late in the first half He only ended up with 3 fouls, so considering how well he was playing, 20 minutes does seem a bit on the low side 18 for Gardner is actually the most he has played His numbers will continue to go up
To me this was another example of sitting top guys with two fouls in the first half hurting us. Myo and Brock combine for 20 points but only 37 minutes combined. Both played sparingly in 1st half with two fouls.
Totally agree with Coach, we have to find a way to help Dawson get on track. We were right there down the stretch after scoring only 5 points in the 1st 15 minutes, no Kemrite and 1 point from Dawson.

Teams are getting film and they are game planning with the idea of "forcing someone other than John Dawson to beat us". We need someone else to step up and be that go to scorer behind Dawson.
