    Sort of what I figured...I don't fault Garrett though. He has made some nice baskets and will again.

    If it wasn't for Garrett we would've lost this game.
    We didn't lose the game by that last shot.
    We lost the game because no one rotated over defensively to stop Texas ability to drive to the basket.
    If there is one thing I know about watching John Brady's teams is that they
    play better defensively, this game wasn't an example of the effort his teams
    give defensively.

    The only lacking I see on this defense is not stopping the drive. Since their isn't a legit shot blocker and Big Baby inexplicably spends most of the time out of the paint on defense we will see this all season. Maybe Brady will see this too and have him stay low to take care of this problem. Otherwise they get steals and force some bad shots. They get quite a few defensive rebounds do really they are playing a tough D. Need that presence down low to complete it.
