What a game...lots to have commented on during game. Now...just a whew...that was too close with 3 minutes left...but we won...have mixed feelings on how JB handled substitutions today basically with Scoop...but he did make some good plays down the end. Waiters is terrific...Triche was super..particularly liked his feed to Waiters on fast break...my views of what needs to improve:

1. KJ should not dribble more than three times before shooting or passing...at least 5 balls off his feet
2. Bad Scoop early and good Scoop late...but he does pound the ball alot...and he really cannot shoot 3's
3. Team missed 6 bunnies that I counted...CJ and Mello and Keita...ugh
4. Triche is asserting himself and beginning to look like a very good guard

Below is box score from ESPN...
1. KJ had a terrific all around game
2. Triche had a very good game and his 7 rebounds stand out
3. Waiters had a very good game and 7 assts are very good
4. CJ very good all around game despite missing several bunnies...good boards
5. Melo played well...8 boards and 6 points
6. Scoop...dont know what to say...had twice as many TOs as assists...shot poorly...had no boards

I frankly am surprised JB played Scoop as much as he did...although he redeemed himself sometwhat at end...he had a horrible overall game.

They were hacked on some of those and nothing was called.

Keita had perhaps the most important 4 points of the day.

Not only important 4 pts but between Fab and Keita made marquette miss a lot of shots. Second half guards and forwards were gambling too much and let guys dribble into the paint. Finally in the last few minutes guards stayed in front of their man, but marquette hit a few 3's to get close but good win. You need to have games that challenge you to dig down to get the win. By the way no way AO or Jackson make 2 freethrows at the end of game. Fab ,Christmas, Keita at least have a chance to make them.
