This is something I liked:
At times, we ran a 2-3 with the desired intent to close out hard
on three and then filter drivers to the key, where Otchere was
waiting for them and swatting everything away (or changing
shots). It was a defense that was clearly designed to make the
offense do a very specific thing. I liked that, especially with
someone as large and gifted as Otchere waiting for them.
That's gonna be a nice weapon to have.

Sorry to be late to the party, but a work obligation didn't
allow me to view the game live. Just saw the replay on ESPN+.
I must say that their broadcast was not the best - guess I can
complain about it now that I'm a paying customer -:)
I have to say that in all sports, there are games that can
define a season for a team (good or bad). I think this game can
(and possibly will) define both SBU and GW. To come back from a
25-2 deficit, and literally salvage and win a game after being
royally embarrassed at the outset, is remarkable. The
confidence and stick-tuitiveness of SBU last night can provide
them with unbelievable confidence for the rest of the season.
For GW, just a devastating loss.
Although the win was great, we MUST do better at the Free Throw
Line. The only reason we're not complaining about this more is
that GW was worse than us in that stat line. Shooting 63% from
the line is not gonna cut it for us. We need to bump that up
10%, if we aim to win a Conference Championship. Memo to Coach
Boals - let's work on this super important aspect of the game in
practice!
Congrats SBU! Let's keep the mojo going at SC on Friday night.

Well said, Steveoh. 2-3 was the key to the comeback.
And yes Old, free throw shooting needs to improve. Last night
looked very similar to last year.
