2nd half team

Another 50+ point second half for us last night. We are developing a trend! Hopefully DD has a few more halftime speeches left in him.

I love that and all, but it sure makes for a nervous first half!

I really like how DD and the team makes the adjustments. OU was pressing us big time in the 1st half making us play our game from way outside the 3 point arch. It seemed like we couldn't get any good shots under the hoop. That all changed in the second half when we did a much better job of beating the press and taking it to the hole.

I'm starting to like Floyd more and more. He's got good skills handling the ball. He and Vandermeer are the future of this team.

Nine turnovers do not equate to good ball handling skills.

Sometimes I think he's going to dribble the dimples off the basketball.
He almost had a triple-double: 16 pts, 8 A's, 9 TO's...

Yes he did make a few turnovers but this game is a lot closer if he doesn't come back from that roll of the ankle and run the show in the second half. He's getting better and better all the time.

No question he showed guts by coming back in. That was ugly.
I am sure he'll improve, and I will have more faith in him.
