[*]Kudos to Hughes and Girard for stepping up and almost willing us to victory. Even though Girard didn't have a great overall FG %, he generally took good shots and hit a good percentage of 3's.
[*]Guerrier continues to play consistently 
[*]Obviously Boeheim had a 2nd consecutive bad game. Team seemed a little energized when they brought in Goodine. Boeheim does demand attention with his outside shot, but when he's not scoring, he doesn't give us much else. Not much of an athlete, passer, defender, rebounder. He has had some fantastic games-guess Jimmy was hoping he'd eventually catch fire.  I probably would have stuck with what was going well until it wasn't. 
[*]Some free throw misses hurt us at the end, esp. when Hughes missed the front end of a one-and-one.
[*]That foul by Guerrier with 1:30 left hurt, especially w/ them being in the double bonus.
[*]Them being in the double bonus made me want us to at least take a quick look at a 3 before settling for a contested 2 in the last minute. There's much less pressure for a team at the end of a game when there's an automatic 2 foul shots, as compared to a one-and-one.
[*]A few times recently we've given it to JG III at the end of games to make a play and did it again yesterday with about a minute left. I'd much rather give it to our best player to either score or create for others. As good as JG III played, he's still only 6 feet and limited athletically. Can't overthink it, if we go down, let's go down with our best plsyer.
