1- Other than way too many turnovers, the first 5 minutes went well.
2- They seem to know our passing lanes better than we do.
3- Good gravy does JoeyC look lost out there. Afraid to shoot a three, and puts up the ugliest two in history.
4- Hawk's 3 off a badly broken play to take the lead back at about 6 minutes left in the half was sweet.
5- Karaban had a great first half.
6- At the half, we're out rebounding (16-12) and out assisting (10-6) them.
7- That foul call on Adama at about 5 min left in the game was one of theworst calls ever.
8- JoeyC's late three could be just the spark he needed the get back on track for the tourneys.
9- Second half, we made them pay for over pressuring our guards in 3 point territory with passes to an unguarded man at the rim.
10- 40 to 20 advantage on the boards,and more than doubled them in dimes.
11- My vote for POG goes to Karaban.

The most worrisome moment was Alex's 3rd quick second half foul that got him off the floor. He finished with 3 fouls.

Credit Hopkins for 6-6 free throw shooting, and was called for only one foul. Alex fared better on every other stat line, not to say they were fully on each other throughout, but to highlight that there was no beating Alex with Hopkins tonight. Alex was the more impactful player in addition to having better surrounding teammates. Very gratifying.

Alex also looked really joyful at times in this game and the last one too. Seems he's figured things out as he was a non-factor in the first PC game but had a great stat line in this one. Same points as Hopkins and out-rebounded him 8 to 0.

Point 9 is so key for me. At times our guards have made horrible decisions when pressured. Last night I felt like they were so much sharper and smart in those spots. Bigs/wings (karaban, jackson, sanogo, clingan) were eating in the second half when they got the ball inside
