Obviously defensive effort was good last night. In addition to the effort, we were much much active with our hands on the ball and in the passing lanes. We are making passes more difficult and getting deflections. This resulted in several forced turnovers. I thought Zach was good on D last night. He was staying big and made them shoot over him without fouling. He caused a couple travels in the first half just being big. I thought we were better not over helping and giving up wide open threes as well.

On offense we only had 4 turnovers until about mid way in the second half from there we got a little sloppy. It seemed to me the IT and Sasha had trouble getting their footwork correct and getting in rhythm when shooting threes. They seemed a bit hurried. The biggest improvement I saw was Ivey playing "off two feet". He hit a couple pull up mid range shots and had 5 assists, and got to the line 6 times. Very much in control. I believe by him being in control shooters were move ready to shoot and he was able to make better passes. The result 5 assists.

Also, Eric Hunter seemed very comfortable and confident in his role last night. Very good game from him last

if we can continue this type of game to game practice to practice improvement, I like our chances in March. Keep building. Boiler up
