Our offense looks tentative, and it seems like last year (and even two years ago) more our 3-pointers seemed to be part of the plan rather than just random shots several feet behind the line.

Beilein's team *always* value the basketball and it's clear that this team does at least that.

Anyone know what we do when we create a turnover (points off TOs, sort of thing) and where we rank there? I guess it is not good. Great point Giddings!
