Message: [QUOTE="superjohn, post: 4794852, member: 1522"] That was an important trip to NYC... Hurley has stressed how we need bench play to accomplish the things they want to accomplish this season and we sure got it tonight. Hurley wasn't bs'ing about Samson. His athleticism, length and timing were eye opening. He looked good in the games before tonight but that was a big time athletic team we just played and he was going mano o mano with Dillon Mitchell with wow plays and he did so much more than just the dunks. Tough traffic rebounds. He walled guys up a couple times, saved baskets with huge blocks. He was a revelation and I have to imagine he opened the eyes of the NBA scouts who were there to watch other players. [USER=1414]@HuskyHawk[/USER] you should be doing your victory lap. Diarra played the best all around game of his career here, he was all over the court. Solo had some wow plays early. He's going to be really good. Karaban closed the game out with three big time NBA moves, with the game in the balance and the offense stalled. He now needs to know he's going to be the best offensive player on the court a lot of the time. This game was big for confidence for a lot of our guys. Huge for the three bench guys once we're at full strength. I'm just so happy for Samson. Cam is such a smart offensive player, we know what we're going to get with him. Dude is Woody from White Men Can't Jump, he has every trick in the book. Donovan, needs to get in game shape and shed some lbs. It's not there right now. If and when that happens we'll be truly scary. Texas is tough and is only going to get better. This will be one of our many really good wins this season. Championships never get old. [/QUOTE]
