If Purvis took a page out of the Boatshow's arsenal (dribble drive way more than take perimeter shots) we'd be even more of a problem for folks

Really nice job closing this game out. Money down the stretch at both ends. Although you have to wonder what Purvis was doing pushing the ball with 1:03 left, leading to the equally boneheaded Hamilton foul. Ollie looked like he wanted to hurl.

This will be a quality win - great effort on D and on the boards, good ball movement, many contributed, but need to get to better on FT.

Sorry you don't get the mojo greatness of the William Shea quote there, fanner.
Down 5 when I posted that, and now what? A Victory for the good guys. There is still mojo to be wrung out of that obviously. Can you loathe me and thank me at the same time? I will accept that and take one for the team.
 
great finish , only thing i didnt like was seeing Purvis shoot free throws , they looked really bad.
 
the little bit of doubt I still had about Boat not quite being filling Shabazz's shoes is gone. he's the next great UConn PG. tough, skilled, smart. A leader who hates losing.
 
This is the kind of win that gets the pups stronger!!!! Can you imagine when Omar comes in pistons firing!!!!!!

Good effort. Chemistry finding itself. Boat is a stud! Once we figure out minutes we will be okay.
No worries. I see a long run in the tourney.
 
They only had 24 points in the second half. A lot of the first half problems came after Briunah and Nolan were both sitting with two. It doesn't excuse things like losing your man on back cuts or not hustling back on defense - we'll need to be better at holding down the fort in non-Brimah minutes with a little better team defense.

Part of it too, though, is that these early season 3 in 3 days tourneys don't give you much time for film/scouting report/game planning. Assistant coaches will be assigned teams, so whoever the Dayton scouter was would have had the game plan ready. But with less than 24 hours, you can't really get everything into your player's minds that you need to. Dayton ran some good stuff on offense - and they had good passers at multiple positions, which made them hard to scout since they can attack from different places.

Partially due to halftime adjustments, and partially due to Brimah, the second half was much better and we asserted ourselves when we needed to - great job attacking the rim late after maybe a bad possession or two with contested threes.

A good early season learning curve game.

Definitely; we just got our first win over a tournament team this season
 
I'm predicting West Virginia match up in the finals... which will be TOUGH...
 
Great learning experience for the youngsters... Welcome to the dog fight

Now that's one version I haven't seen yet. ;)

Not you too!

How soon we forget!

That phrase led us to a title last year. I
