1. 8 passes including Ochefu post up: Hart turns it over under the basket
2. 2 passes Hart drives and misses a wide open bunny
5. 5 passes, including post-up to Ochefu, kicked out and reversed to a wide open Brunson who shot an open 3 long.
6. 1 pass Arch hits a pull up 3 on the rebound break.
7. 1 pass missed mildly contested 3 attempt by Jenkins off to the right
8. On the break, outlet to Arch in same spot as made 3, halfway down and out
So, OK on their first 5 made shots were on zero or 1-pass plays, all 5 of which were just bad defensive positioning plays. With Nova's possessions, 5 times they had 4 or more passes resulting in a TO, 3 open shots (missed) and 1 semi-contested airball. The other 5 had 2 good fastbreak attempts by Arch (1 made 1 in and out) 1 rushed and semi contested shot by Jenkins, 1 wide open mid-range by Arch, and 1 wide open bunny missed by Hart.
Honestly there was nothing generally wrong with the start of the game offensively other than missing shots and rushing a bit here and there. Defensively was the problem where we just really had bad positioning and gave OK easy 1 or no-pass 3-ball attempts.
