Message: [QUOTE="RichZ, post: 4429330, member: 534"] [LIST=1] [*]Started out looking disjointed. [*]Early -- a Buffalo guy (Adams) with the clumsiest, most obvious hook I've ever seen on a basketball court. [*]Lousy shooting early but our rebounding -- particularly offensive rebounding -- was outstanding from the get go. [*]If Sanogo's 3 point shooting doesn't turn out to be a mirage, he's really going to climb up a bunch in the draft. [*]Stop shooting 3s, dammit! They ain't going in. Directed at the team as a whole, except JoeyC, but when I said it, he hadn't turned it on yet. [*]Never thought I'd see a stretch where JoeyC is the best guy we have on the floor [*]Speaking of Joey California, he looks like a high school sophomore out there. [*]Newton's breakaway dunk changed the game. It energized the crowd AND the players. Not sure it would have had the same effect if he'd just laid it in. [*]Shocked to only be up by 4 boards in the rebounding column at the half. But the 9 to 2 advantage on the offensive boards is a huge factor. [*]Officiating was inconsistent to say the least. Same action that gets called a couple times then gets ignored for much of the rest of the game. [*]Nice run at both ends around the 15 minute mark in the 2nd half. [*]Five minutes later, they got VERY sloppy trying to force the ball in to Sanogo and created 3 consecutive turnovers. [*]No question in my mind that Sanogo missed that breakaway on purpose to give Tristen a shot at the rebound. Glad that he got the last couple on real game action instead of a setup. [*]Don't know how you can not call Newton the POG with the triple double stat line he put down...22 points, 14 of 17 from the line, 10 boards, 11 assists, 4 steals and a block. And [B]no [/B]fouls. That's impressive. But there's still that 4 of 14 shooting from the floor to mess it up. [*]Diarra had his first klunker of a game. [*]26% three point shooting as a team. That can't happen again. [*]JoeyC had a pretty decent stat line and was the only husky to hit more than one from deep. [*]I thought the Play by play guy was a step up from the first two games, but Steve Lappas is a horrible color man. [*]Fixed the rebounding in the 2nd half, and ended up with 14/28/42 compared to buffalo's 5/24/29. [*]We played really well for about 5 minutes beginning with about 6 to go in the first half, then from the 16 minute mark until the half way point in the second half, and finally, the last 5 minutes.
