Message: [QUOTE="RuffRuff, post: 5212844, member: 1268"] I'd agree that AK getting hot (as well as Liam & Solo), the 3 of them generally just figuring out how to architect their scoring triage is huge. We need our three best scorers to understand how to work together to get good shots and make them. Liam was downright combustible in this one and playing so iso/reckless and Solo was taken away for large chunks. Hassan's health is huge, but I'm just not sure how something plaguing him all year can spontaneously get better unless they decide to inject him before the tourney. While an amazing game from Samson, once we go into the halfcourt games against talented front courts, it's Tarris that we need to be core. Samson will always be a better matchup in a track meet, which are few and far between. He was that last year vs StJ. Things I loved as building blocks. Tarris's pass to AK for the sealing 3, feel like the inside out offense could be consistently effective. That we took care of the basketball, 8 TO's after 25 last game was a coup. Marquette is a bad rebounding team, almost by design. StJ outrebounded them 43-21 in their last game. They are 4-5 over their last 9 with their last good win in the first week of Jan. It's basically Kam Jones, who has a serious case of the yips, and a bunch of jags. [/QUOTE]
