Message: [QUOTE="jdubs30, post: 2518675, member: 1620"] Hats off to Marek - incredible. PC played great too. We won the boards, 34-30. But Tyus and Frank combined for 11 boards. It was huge. I counted at least 4-5 boards where Frank/Tyus came out of nowhere to secure the rebound. Earlier in the year we saw both of them bail on the rebound and head back into transition. It seems now that an emphasis is on securing the rebound - which it should be. If we have all 5 guys crashing the boards, we won't allow many second chances. Personally, I'd prefer that route as opposed to 2 or 3 easy tranisiton buckets a game. Because if it's 3 on 4 when trying to rebound defensively, we will get murdered on the boards vs. good teams. This team isn't built to win a tournament like this because of the lack of depth - but we saw a lot of encouraging signs tonight. I hope we get a chance in Dayton at the very least. [/QUOTE]
