Team played awesome in the first half. Only those Boatright treys kept them close enough to make the second half even necessary to play.
Second half was a complete reversal. They kept clawing their way back & dominated the play until the game was tied, when we re-asserted our will...and that is all it was...pure will to win.
We had solid play in the first half from Brandon, James, and MCW. I do not understand why James & MCW did not see any second half minutes. I thought they could have/should have been brought in after our lead that had peaked @ 17 was being whittled back slowly to maybe 12-13. It was easy to sense that the mo had changed at that point & yet we still had a big enough lead that we could try to regain the mo w bench players, who would not have lost us the game even if they did little at that point in time.
All in all a scrappy win w a gut check at the end. However, no reason the game should have beeen that close.
