In response to HARVARDDADGRAD
Not quite. Brown won because it shot like it hasn’t all year (15-26 on 3’s). Kudos to Brown.
Obviously I was being facetious about "maybe H is better off without Ledlum". I'm not being facetious, however, about how Ledlum's presence (and 17 point contribution) didn't keep H from losing to Brown by 11. Every team has had to deal with injuries, including Penn who has remade its squad and style of play with great success. The loss of its two main big men forced it to reimagine its offense and redeploy its remaining big man, JuCo transfer Moshkovitz, in a totally different, but vastly more effective, manner. Penn has subsequently tapped into its bench for another big, freshman Laczkowski, who has been a versatile addition inside and outside in Penn's current streak.
By the way, I AM NOT SAYING THAT WANG AND LORCA LLOYED ARE EQUAL TO LEDLUM.
One other point, Forbes played and was generally effective in Penn's win at Lavietes. It's not totally clear that Iogy recognizes that with his comment about Forbes's "re-addition" in the rematch.
