In response to Old Bear
Lesmond’s a tall guard (6’6”)
But bringing Ajogbor and Okpara out on the perimeter opened up the lane (e.g., Lily’s end of first half drive) and Brown’s remarkable offensive rebounding in the first half.
I guess the foreshadowing was on Brown’s first possession. Ajogbor rejected Lily’s 3 on the perimeter, but Lily chased down the rejection, stepped even further back, and barely beat the 30 second clock with a rainbow over Ajogbor for Brown’s first basket of the game. A precursor of the games ending(s).
Definitely a few games in one:
A rock fight: First 4:45 minutes: Harvard 4 - Brown 3
Brown dominance: Middle 25 minutes: Brown 47 - 29
A stirring Harvard Comeback (final 11 minutes) Harvard 28-8
Lily clutch closing 3 to tie at 61
Harvard up in OT: score 64-61
Brown 7-2 run to lead 71-66
Final: Brown: 71-68
Amazing how performances in both games between these teams were so uneven:
First Game;
1H: Brown 41-24
2H: Harvard 48-33
That’s Ivy Basketball I guess.
