Message: [QUOTE="Hunt for 7, post: 5212372, member: 12414"] Apologies if already posted but Stewart’s put back slam made number 2 on plays of the day on Sportscenter. He has those hops and he still looks a bit heavy to me. Stewart is definitely an enigma but last night might have been his best defensive game of the year. I see we dropped down a spot on KenPom after the win. Marquette losses drops one spot we win drop one spot. We are just not a team that analytics like. But to me that was our best defensive game of the year, because we executed the staffs game plan. Maybe some of that is Marquette not shooting well but we also contested a ton of shots. One or two of Joplin threes were highly contested. Stewart, Johnson and even Reed did a very good job of staying in front of smaller quicker players by moving their feet. Collectively this was the type of game that can get you wins against very good competition. [/QUOTE]
