Just watched the replay on WatchEspn and haven't looked at the board much.

Safe to say though if White goes for a few threes less then this is likely a loss.  I haven't looked at a box score but it was an ABYSMAL job on the def boards it felt to me.  That Aminu skying over our guys and other Ospreys grabbing rebounds.  Not securing rebounds and Lydon having them ripped from him.  Getting out hustled big time.  Felt like I was watching Pitt with Sam Young and DeJuan Blair except these were the Ospreys.

Nice to see Battle play with confidence.  Same with Coleman.

Perimeter D was garbage.  Just garbage.  Gillon was horrendous in all facets of the game today.  Very disappointing.

Lydon wasn't much better and Roberson's play is approaching comical out there.  The amount of missed bunnies by the whole team was unreal.

I still don't think this was a game for Chukwu and am not as down on TT as others.

Good game by Frank on offense.  Really good vision out there.

This was not a good performance.  Did we improve?  Hard to say but I'm leaning to no, frankly.  North Florida had some good offensive rebounders like Aminu and that PG is a good player.  Rest of their team was garbage.  Fortunately they missed a bunch of their OPEN looks in the 1H.  We'll see how we do against a more athletic UConn team who will try to play street ball.  If they get all those offensive rebounds like North Florida did then we're leaving MSG with a loss, imo.
