Excellent post -- the responses have focused primarily on dirty vs. physical, but I thought UB executed a pretty impressive game plan. I'm sure they thought they could force Tyus into bad shots, but as you point out he was really smart and didn't fall into that trap. Had he, however, we probably lose that game. I also never mind when a team I root for, forces a guy who isn't much of an offensive threat to beat them. It's a gamble but there's some method to it.

As far as Frank, I think a big problem is he tries to go 0-100 a lot. He's dribbling the ball flat-footed and trying to make a move from there. Would love to see him changing directions and trying to not be so predictable, starting from an upright, flat posture and more in attack mode consistently in the offensive end.

Impressed with buffalo. Dirty or not, if a ref doesn't call it, that's where the blame falls. Refs let them play and UB took advantage. Pretty deep, pretty skilled and uber aggressive. That's a tough combination. They played the high screen really well and why we didn't switch to have a more dangerous player setting the screen (brissett) or adjust and attack that exaggerated hedge and split that double is disappointing to me.
