It's important for my mental health that:
 
-Wisc does not hit their first three, esp if it's one where we don't get up on the shooter. 
-We get a good look and run good sets the first few possessions, 3-4 mins.  Don't force an entry pass that is not there or settle for a three, or a mid-range CJ jumper.  I want to see Kris take it hard on the first 2-3 poss, with CJ cleaning up.  Then CJ take a few hard right to the hole.
 
When that happens, I'm confident that we will be able to run our offense the way we want and not having to wait to halftime and hope for adjustments.
 
-We are not down 5-2, 8-2, or 13-4, etc.   It's usually two hours of watching from a negative state of mind, vs. two hours of a positive state.  Well, that's not really true because there's always the feeling that "hey, we're only up 8 with two mins, they have time"...
 
-James and/or Brandon hit the first three they get.  Sure, it probably doesn't really mean much for the entire game but when I see James (and to a lesser extent Brandon)  hit the first three, I then start to feel we won't lose.
 
-I'd like to see at least two presses in the first half, esp if we are winning.  Sure, it probably does not force a TO against them or make them rush their shot.  However, it always gives us an extra step.  Maybe at the 15/16 min mark, bring in Dion, James and Baye and slap it on.
 
If we do those things, I'm happy, which means everyone on this board is going to be happy!
