Just when we thought we had the defense headed in the right direction...

we give up a 61.5% shooting percentage and miraculously only lost by 4.

I have no words...

First games after the all-star break can be a little crazy at times. I wouldn’t worry too much about it in all honesty. Especially against a high powered offense like Glory.

I appreciate what you're saying here, but I've played D2 and higher teams without giving up a shooting percentage that high. If that number started with a 5, it wouldn't bother me. A 6 is a different story when defense is our primary weapon because we KNOW we are the gang that can't shoot straight.

If I've ever given up a percentage that high, I honestly cannot recall.

This greatly bothers me.
