Tigers win 68-61! WOW! What a win. I caught most of the second half and I was super-impressed with their grit.
I honestly thought they'd lose by 12-15 in their first post-Tosan game. I was wrong about Davis starting - they went with experience - though Dalen and Huggins both got 9 minutes.
- Despite MH's talk about Xavian being upset with him, Lee looked plenty comfy and played to his strengths. So smooth on offense and much improved on defense. He still made a few mistakes, but that never shook him. I love that. Very resilient and a "big play" type of guy.
- Allocco thrived as The Man on offense. 21 points on 9-13 shooting. He was always the best tough shot maker on the team and that came in handy today against a tough Rutgers defense. Can't wait to see more of Mush Unleashed!
- Caden Pierce is Dennis Rodman's long lost nephew. 15 rebounds including 6 offensive! His constant extra chances makes up for a lot of our post-Tosan, post-Langborg offensive challenges. His defense is stellar too - moves his feet and doesn't commit bad fouls.
- Martini + double-teams were able to slow down Omoruyi, and his 3pt shooting drew Omoruyi away from the basket on offense. Smallball worked like a charm today.
- I was surprised to see Peters starting but he's certainly earned it. Made 3 treys and only 1 TO. No slouch on defense either - everyone really stepped it up from last year.
