Message: [QUOTE="MexicoHusky, post: 2433551, member: 6438"] It's been tough to argue that last few years for KOs basketball philosophy. The results just haven't been there. The board has also been fairly critical of KO and the staff as well. For good reason. Personally, i have been a supporter of KO and what he's trying to do. Through a myriad of reasons we just haven't had the personnel to implement KOs philosophy. Despite the results I still believe in KO. I think I'll always believe in KO. My faith is not based on our record or results. It's based on his guard orientated approach and how basketball is evolving. I think this is the direction of baskeball. Last night was cool for me because more than anything else our philosophy won. The passing and shooting numbers suggest we should of lost. But our ability to dominate the guard play and pace of the game won. As much as anyone, Michigan State and Izzo represent the past of basketball to me. They always roll out a bunch of one dimensional goons. I am very curious how our 2 philosophies match up. We've gotten the best of them as of late. But Bridges is a very legit pro prospect. Bridges and their size may be too much to handle. We'll see how it turns out. If we do win i know what the game will look like. Our guards will simply control the game. Anyways, looking forward to tonight. [/QUOTE]
