Total lack of team ball for the Panthers in this one.I saw little cooperation by the players on the floor or much of an attempt from the sidelines to encourage team basketball. The wins this year have come from five players on the floor putting out a combined effort on both ends of the court . There's no reason to give away any game especially a conference game. That place is hard enough to win at under normal circumstances much less having this type of display. Hopefully some eyes were opened and things won't be repeated. The Lady Panthers need to finish the season strong and get back to basics.
