Believe that was almost 6 min (5:30ish) with no bucket...
Terrible way to end the half when they could have kept their foot on their neck when they were down.

Adams is good defensive coach. It's apparent his strategy was to take Akinjo out of the mix. Watch it closely in the 2nd half. Anytime Flo or Bonner are on the floor and are basically no scoring threats, he rolls a 2nd defender off to cover Akinjo from both sides. Mayer has gotta become a scoring threat again or teams are gonna start rolling defenders off him.Wichitabear said:
Where is Akinjo tonight ? We need to see him scoring

These "flat lines" on offense are no bueno. We used to have that issue often
