-          It wasn’t a cure for our ills but it was a nice little gulp of mouthwash after what happened last week.

-          We may wind up viewing Roberson’s dunk as the moment this season turned around. I hope so.

-          We moved the ball very well and got plenty of good shots. I was especially impressed that we were using Lydon and Thompson to work for the high post, sometimes in tandem as almost a relay, like a bucket brigade, to get the ball into the basket. They could score themselves or hit someone on the baseline for a lay-up. Teams have been killing us form the top of the key and along the baseline for years. It’s good to see us doing that to someone else.

-          Tyler Lydon has certainly re-established himself as the best player on the team and it’s on the court leader. He had another double-double with 20 points and 10 rebounds, hit 4 three pointers, 3 assists, 2 steals and block.

-          Taurean Thompson continued to be a point machine with 18 points on 9 for 15 shooting.

-          Tyus Battle looks ready to become a more consistent contributor. He had 16 points and 4 threes.

-          John Gillon had 7 assists and no turnovers.

-          We got out and ran, with 16 fast break points. We also had 19 points off of 15 turnovers. Just playing the half-court game hasn’t been enough for us. We’ve got to beat the other team down court.

-          Boeheim still has a few more practices before the conference schedule starts and we start with what’s supposed to be the worst team. Maybe he can create a miracle, one step at a time.

8-5 with 18+ to go!

LET’S GO ORANGE!
