we're getting there

still took a couple of short stretches off, but they seemed to have mostly turned the corner in two straight games now, with a couple of bad stretches against Cuse too

now let's get 40 hard Saturday and pick up a big win, which is very doable. Both Marq and Nova rely on guards and perimeter to win their games, not the type of teams that gives us the most problems.

Won't be able to go 40 hard without more production from the bench. The starters have looked good against both Cuse and now DePaul. At least they are getting minutes from the bench and decent defense.

Also, they were up big. There aren't many (any?) teams that keep up full focus up over 20.

1st half after going up double digits was very annoting for a team who needs to care about every possession. Yeah they were good for 32-35 minutes but that needs to get better to make the run required to dance. The fact they were so awful with caring for the ball for the end of the first half and some of the atrocious passes, alley oops, out of control rushed plays is alarming. They need to realize they are not good enough for those stretches. They were very careless and I guess George noticed it too. Not gonna work for the remainder of the schedule for sure....but there were many positives to take so move on and see what happens vs Marquette!!

That game just became street ball in the second half - I felt like I was watching the McDs AA game. Nice win, loose/fun and much needed for the win column and the psyche but little value on terms of building off for the home stretch.

If we could get anything from Daniels and Roscoe going forward at the 3 and 4, that would be a huge lift. I think some of these athletic teams are going to give Giffey and TO problems.
