Joe W. saved our bacon against Cincinnati...

His offense was good, but his defense won this game.

Evelyn and CJF had a hand in it too.

A team game and EVERYONE had at least 2 turnovers and missed FTs too

I was pleasantly surprised at Bakari.

Garza's defense was pretty good in the post as well.

I am in agreement about Bakari and CJ.

Side note- anyone hear Fran's dig on Joe T.? "He must have had the wrong shoes on or something." Haha.

Sure that was a dig on JT?

He actually said that Joe T changed them at halftime because he was slipping...but got in foul trouble early in the second half.

Cuz the refs let them foul the crap out of us. JW DID play great defense.

There was some quality defense in the last 4 minutes all around that floor.

This team is fun to watch...because the guys have bought in and they are executing their role/game plan.

There is only one guy who isn't holding up his end of the deal...unfortunately injuries have derailed his career so I'm blaming that and not the individuals effort.

If there was ever a game where the refs wanted to put a freshman, this was it. JT’s first turnover happened after a Cincy player tripped him and it went downhill from there. Ed Hightower would have been proud.

JT dribbles in some really tight lanes. He's often quick enough to make it through. But just a tiny late slide by a defender and JT is going down.

He's gonna need to get more calls and/or a little more selective in when to drive.

As I said in another post, I think Fran is getting a little perturped with the fashion show of several different odd color shoes in each game. Its not the Brooklyn blacktop fashion shoe. Settle down and play ball.....

This is not a one game thing. Watch some of the other games. He always slides that plant foot or slips to the floor when he tries to come to a quick stop.

That guy had some key rebounds last night.

I cannot believe how long we stuck on 50 and still won. And it was not like we were shooting bricks, just peeing down our leg with turnovers.

Also, they deserve some credit for their defense on Luka. We were fortunate to pull this one out.

I think this was a good learning experience for Toussant. He’ll improve from it. We’ve seen him have success.

Evelyn’s confidence must be improved after this game. He played really nicely. A few TOs, but everyone struggled.
