We appear to be playing at 2pm against Lakeside. Is everybody in?

After the last game we gave some thought to how we wanted to play  
these guys in our next encounter. It's true that they beat us last  
week, but we need to remember that they won by just 2 points and we  
were missing both Kieron and Dave. We also lost to them by just 8 on  
the Terracon weekend when we were missing me, James and Chris, but we  
beat them by 3 in our first game, just a few weeks into grading. So  
it's not like they've demolished us in the past or anything.

I think this team has 2 primary offensive threats - 3 point shooting  
and keyway penetration off the ball (either to receive a pass or  
establish rebounding position). If we limit them in these areas, I  
think we'll be set.

As far as our offense goes, I think we're generally doing things well.  
The main thing I'd suggest is that we need to remember to get the ball  
right down into the deep wing area so we can set up the double post.  
And as usual - we just need to play calmly and not rush things.

Anyway, I'll throw this open to everyone else. Any ideas on how we  
should take them on? Should we modify our defense? etc...

Tom.
