Robert has really picked up his point production and shooting percent, where everything else is staying about even - Which isn't a bad thing at all. If they want to be productive and successful in the tournament, they have to keep playing their game - 1) The back court needs to be smart with the ball. Minimal turnovers and smart passes inside. 2) The front court needs to be tough inside and make sure they take high percentage shots. 3) The swing men need to play off of the inside guys, be selfish or selfless depending on how the flow of the game is going.
