Very pleased with how we responded again today after letting Miami get the lead. Very resilient team we have.

With all the good plays down the stretch by Ennis and others, and all the clutch free throws at the end, I really thought the "dagger" was Cooney's three with 2:24 to go to give us a six point lead. It seemed to take a bit of life out of the Caines.
 
When Jerami Grant jumped on the ground for that loose ball like he was starving for 7 days and the last of his food was about to roll over a cliff. That was huge.
 
When we lose the lead (or are trailing) late, I feel sure we will still pull it out. Just the way it is this year. This team seems special. It will be shocking to me when (if?) we lose. I'm sure we will, but it will be a shock nonetheless.

Agreed. The key is, if we lose, not to turn it into 3 in a row or 3 out of 4.

Cheers,
