Message: [QUOTE="REB1094, post: 4491463, member: 12147"] Yes, Hurley improved as a coach today. Not just because shots started going in. In-game adjustments that I noticed: [LIST=1] [*]Sanogo mixed in drop coverage, and Creighton couldn’t exploit his defense like they wanted to [*]The bench defense was great today and Hurley made the subs at the right times [*]Offense/defense subs down the stretch. Diarra/Alleyne came in for defense, Newton/AK for offense. This is a big deal. Hurley typically runs with starters down the stretch no matter what [*]Throwing in a random full court press that directly led to 2 turnovers [/LIST] Sanogo destroyed Kalkbrenner. Early in the game I said Kalkbrenner was owning Sanogo, and then Sanogo destroyed him. Creighton shaded extra defenders in the second half but that flowed into secondary offense that got good looks for shooters. Hawkins’ percentage was bad, but great game imo. Newton had a solid game. Clingan’s box score isn’t good but he had a great impact too We lost most of the hustle plays for 37 minutes but then came alive down the stretch. Great plays by Andre and Newton to extend possessions for us. We nearly had the ball for a minute and a half straight thanks to them Still lots of fouls. 19 fouls today but the refs blew the whistle on the other end too. That’s all we ask for. Kaluma pushes off every time he drives though Honestly we didn’t play great. Creighton missed a LOT of good looks for threes. The game should have been a lot closer. But regardless, we made the winning plays and they did not. Great win! [/QUOTE]
