[QUOTE="SecretAgentBuzz, post: 924086, member: 253"] YES! We pulled it out! Great win for the team and the fanbase. We own this state in basketball (barely, but, whatever--it counts!). What I liked: -An actual home court advantage. -MILES KELLY! He is instant offense and we need every bit of it. That "touchdown" to start the second half was beautiful. Kelly seems to be learning that he can take over a game, and he took over this one when we needed it--first five minutes of the second half and last minute of the game. -Our offense actually looked pretty good, but we could use more work against the zone. If we keep shooting poorly from 3, more teams will use a zone against us. I liked Franklin, Moore, and even Howard all being aggressive and taking the ball to the rim. We had 14 assists to 7 turnovers--I'll take that every game. -Pastner's rotations. It seemed like he had a good feel for who to keep in the game and I liked the distribution of minutes. -Free throw defense continues to be good. :) -The last play of the game. It looked very similar to the last play against GSt. It was very effective then and again here. -The defense in the last three or four minutes. I think they scored 2 points in the last four+ minutes of game time. What I didn't like: -Generally, the defense. Their guards got to the rim way too easily. I will see ball screens with the guard shooting wide open down the lane in my nightmares it happened so often. We did finally make some changes, but earlier changes should have happened. UGA shot 53% from the field, mostly because all of their shots were at the rim. -UGA looking like a well-coached team. I was hoping they would stay in basketball purgatory, but it seems they found a good coach who brought in some decent talent for his first year. We still don't look like a great team, but we looked like a team that can be dangerous. If we can start hitting more threes, we can hang with most any team. Go Jackets! Let's go beat UNC! [/QUOTE]
