Keep their Stan the Man under 20 and our Will the Thrill over 20, I like our chances a lot.

Tournament play is more physical. Separates the men from the boys.

Down 13 at the half. Difference in this game has been the point blank bunnies we have missed and the easy looks we have given up around the bucket.

Going to be tough to make a run while making fouls.

Coyotes just a much more polished group. Played better team ball (18 assists to our 4).

That was a hell of a basketball game. Players coming up big at big times. The ghost of Caleb Green must have been in the Pentagon tonite.
Actually, Green was still playing pro as of a couple years ago.
