In response to gokinsmen
37-30 lead! What a half. Probably get creamed in the 2nd half, but this is a really nice "bounce back" after the brutal Duke loss. They can hang with good teams.
Even without Stephens, the defense is the best I've seen it this season. I like the willingness to foul, which MH explicitly avoids in other games. I've always been a big proponent of heavily fouling elite teams on the road -- it takes away their momentum and quiets the crowd with boring stoppages and FT parades.
Even without hot 3pt shooting, they're finding ways to score. Is this the game that finally gets Desrosiers going? By far his best game all season. Like I said, we probably get crunched in the 2nd half, but this is a good sign heading into league play.
