Impression after watching Rox game first time this year

First time on national tv this year and I wouldn't miss it for anything.

I think offense is the biggest problem. 8 out of 10 times, they had to try to beat the clock! dribling, standing still in first 14-18 seconds, and then going 1-on-1 or a couple passes, and jump shooting. No front court exept when Yao was on. So many turnovers and so few assists!

Yao played well today, only too nervurse. They should work on getting the big man loose. Also, there doesn't seem to be any offense designed for him at this point. He is often on the other side of court from the ball. Rudy needs to make a few designs specificlly to use him. He is also good at shooting jumpers, why not try to get into that situation. He can take a lot of shots when he finds the right position and right rythem.

Defense looked OK tonight. Last minute was disaster. A timeout should be called with one point lead. Instead, Rudy let them play cluelessly and commit 24-sec violation.
