Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 121785, member: 405"] They beat Texas (!) and Princeton, but lost to Stanford by 4 at Stanford (good loss), Vanderbilt by 9 and Indiana by 11. Not terrible losses. And they've gone 6-3 against a decent schedule. C.J. Leslie is a good player and is going to score some points inside for them, but he is an inconsistent rebounder. Keeping him off the boards will be a key. Richard Howell, a 6-8, 250 big man is going to get his. Lorenzo Brown is a 6-5 slasher, who rebounds and passes well as a big guard. They have a lot of balance, with 6 guys effectively averaging 10 points a game. They kind of look like a lesser version of us - they're not quiet as athletic, they shoot about as well as we do, they pass pretty well, they're not a dominating rebounding team. I think this will be a tough game, but we're going to win based on depth and experience. [/QUOTE]
