They shot 63 Shots to our 46. From which, they hit 13 - 3's. Yet, we still won. We had to shoot (but we did) 61% from the floor to win.

We are the better team, it showed, we won. Sky is not falling.

yeah its a damn good thing we shot that well too-we played great basketball for 3/4 game. This is why even against an inferior opponent you don't wholesale substitute with walk-ons to rest for Day 2. Once a team has momentum 15 point leads can evaporate in a few minutes

To be fair, our guys did need a little breather since Sterling got his 2nd early. But, yes you are right. Play the bench at the end. With that said, even with starters in they were raining 3's....wow.

Yeah I think Jank handled it perfectly in First half due to Ben and Sterling's foul trouble

Since the shot clock was added and especially the 3 point shot - big upsets happen. It's why we watch and the games are so much fun. Especially when it's your team doing the upsetting.

I loved that we never panicked (team at least) and played within ourselves the last few minutes. Semi looked awfully calm hitting those last 2 FT to seal it.
