No Hops vs Cheng's Foundation
Game recap
Cheng's Foundation put on a clinic, blowing out No Hops 121 to 60 in a wire-to-wire demolition. From the opening tip, Cheng's seized control and never let up, piling on runs that No Hops simply could not answer. The 61-point margin tells the whole story.
The stat sheet reads like a fantasy line. Cheng's shot 71.6% from the field as a team, knocking down 38 of 44 from two-point range (86.4%) and 15 of 30 from beyond the arc (50%). The ball movement was surgical: 40 assists on 53 made baskets with just 2 turnovers. Compare that to No Hops shooting 41.9% overall and a frigid 22.6% from three (7-of-31), and the efficiency gap is a canyon. The glass told the same tale, 34 rebounds for Cheng's to just 19 for No Hops, meaning every missed shot fed into more damage.
#25 was the headliner, pouring in 55 points on a stunning 27-of-33 from the floor, including 26-of-30 inside the arc. The supporting cast kept the pressure on. #34 splashed 8-of-12 from downtown for 24 and grabbed 9 rebounds. #8 stuffed the stat sheet with 16 points, 10 boards, and a whopping 19 assists. #4 added 16 on 8-of-11 shooting. For No Hops, #32 led with 23 points but needed 23 shots to get there, hitting just 10-of-23, while #78 chipped in 15. The loss drops No Hops to 2-3 on the season, while Cheng's Foundation climbs to 3-1.
Team takeaways
- The team competed with decent ball movement generating 20 assists and maintained acceptable ball security with only 4 turnovers despite facing a tough opponent. #32 showed scoring ability with 23 points and 5 assists, while #78 contributed 15 points and provided some defensive presence with a steal. Several players contributed which shows the offense is not entirely one-dimensional.
- Shooting efficiency was the main concern as the team shot just 41.9 percent from the field and a poor 22.6 percent from three-point range on 31 shots, indicating shot selection needs tightening. The rebounding battle was lost decisively 19 to 34 with only 1 offensive board showing lack of effort on the glass. Defensively there was minimal disruption with only 1 steal and zero blocks recorded. Strategy suggestions include running more plays through the high post to generate higher percentage looks, crashing the offensive glass with at least three players on every shot, and applying more full court defensive pressure to create turnovers. #34 type shot creators need to find ways to penetrate and kick rather than settling for contested threes.
- Outstanding offensive execution across the board. Shooting efficiency was elite with 71.6 percent from the field, 86.4 percent on two-point shots, and a stellar 50 percent from beyond the arc on 30 attempts. Ball movement was superb with 40 assists on 53 made baskets showing a true team-first mentality. Ball security was nearly flawless with only 2 turnovers all game. Number 25 delivered a dominant performance with 55 points on 27 of 33 shooting while number 8 orchestrated the offense beautifully with 19 assists. Number 34 also provided excellent floor spacing knocking down 8 three-pointers.
- Three areas need attention moving forward. First, offensive rebounding was almost nonexistent with only 1 offensive rebound, which could cost you in closer games against stronger frontcourts. Second, zero blocks indicates interior protection is lacking and opponents may exploit the paint more in future matchups. Third, there is heavy reliance on number 25 who scored 45 percent of team points, so developing secondary scoring options will be critical to remain competitive when defenses key in on him. Consider running more set plays for number 34 off screens and getting number 4 more touches in the post.
