I agree with you. This team looks out of shape and doesn't have a clue about playing defense in the paint. It's a very lackadaisical looking team. Donald Trump would describe this team as "low energy". Very frustrating to watch.
On a coaching front, I honestly thought we should have gone to the defensive press much earlier. Our press seemed very effective once it was finally deployed. It slowed UTEP's offense from moving the ball down the court so quickly (keeping them out of the paint), and it forced several turnovers.
