In our first match after a long hiatus, we played moderately well considering our lowered fitness levels. Defence was good especially with the help on covering their star center. Both sides started the game cautiously with neither side running at high octane for quite a while. Rebounding started out bad as their centers grabbed the boards repeatedly and scored alot of second chance baskets. This slowly improved over the course of the game especially when we upped the tempo, tiring their post players faster.
Things that could have been improved on was our finishing in traffic, we seemed to get easily bumped off on our drives and overly intimidated by the opposing center's arms. Shooting was good as we hit a fair number of three point shots. The star player of Yuying got close to fouling out and eventually had to leave the game due to injury in the fourth quarter. Overall, it was a good game and we will be looking to improve as we progress in the tournament.
