Have to give Bake credit, they played hard the first 30 minutes, and strong, they were muscling us

Murray was just sensational, big bucket after big bucket.

Roberts started off solid

I started wondering if they might choke on this game, not in a bad way, just seemed like Traore in particular was trying to go just a bit too fast in teh first have, sped up when he didn't need to.

but our help defense on their bigs was solid, and will be put to another big test.

what really was good is we broke the streak of bad starts which had some lackluster defense, even though we couldn't get a lead to a number of those going to fast plays on offense

teams are blanketing Slater, which is ok, so many guys that can score.

Jones proved his DPOY today

onward, a tougher battle awaits, our guard play is solid, so can't ask for more, hopefuly Mansel is functional, so more time for Rotegaard and Scott, hopefully Rotegaard knows not to do that quick too long 3 the next time he has it, but at least he's comfortable to shoot teh ball
