Comments

- I’m surprised that Buffalo had more unforced turnovers than we did: 10-7. Our guys made a lot of bad or lazy passes and dribbled the ball off our feet a couple of times as well. Some of those must have bene counted as “steals”.

- JB says “we can’t run” but Buffalo does. They had 16 fast break points to our 5 and are averaging 85 points per game. Yes, they had 48 rebounds to our 35. They are a shorter team. And 35 rebounds is not a small number5 fast break points off of 35 rebounds, 5 blocks and 6 steals is a very small number.

- Here’s a shocker: We had 44 first chance points to their 28. It didn’t seem like it but our initial sets were far more productive than theirs were. But the had 7 more second chance points, 11 more fast break points and 10 more made free throws.

- The stat that really jumps out at you is that Oshae Brissett was 16 for 16 from the line against this team last year. This year he was 0 for 3.

Maybe if we stopped recruiting toothpick thin centers we could rebound better and run more. A combined 5 rebounds from our two centers.
