That was exactly the kind of performance I was hoping for coming off the Penn games. Aside from Llewelyn missing some layups (and the rest of his game was great), there was little to complain about.
Reminded me of a game long ago where the Tigers held Dartmouth under 40, and Pete Carril, when asked how it was done, said something like "They had guardable players and we guarded them." This Big Green team is way more talented than that one was, but Princeton's D looked pretty locked in, aside from a few too many straight drives given up in the first half.
Wright was excellent and the Big 3 did their jobs. Morales once again catalyzed the run that changed the game in Princeton's favor. It was great to see Arirguzoh's improved passing out of the high post, something that wasn't looking too good earlier in the season.
Even the broadcast was interesting, as "The Mackchine" on color commentary brought a dry, intelligent humor to the show.
Now we need to see a similar all-around effort against a physical and athletic Harvard team that probably matches up a lot better against Princeton than did Dartmouth and Penn.
