First time seeing men's BB live in two years. Last time they were at PSU.
1. Great to see BK and his lovely wife.
2. Eugene O. had many of his family at the game. Very nice folks.
3. Corey simply glides and flies. His lift off is incredible. He forced a few possessions today, but was much more under control.
4. Mike Williams is the bomb. Reminds me of Kelvin Troy because he was also completely relentless, grinds and grinds. He stroked a few beautiful shots and rebounded like crazy.
5. Desean also more under control. Made a couple of nice back to basket moves. Played hard defense all game. Lost the ball a couple of times, but again under control more.
6. Issa plays nice defense, and is very active. Hands in the air, a couple of rebounds. He is thin, like really thin. If he fills out a bit, that will really help him. Release if BAD. Needs to work on that this summer.
7. Shaq was very active. Couple of boards. Absolutely altered shots today.
8. CJ - Coach Hobbs told him to "be patient" on offense after his walk. Had a few good possessions early in the game. He missed a layup which he absolutely must go straight up and dunk. Also altered some shots.
9. Coach Pike, when PSU stormed back told the bench "Its OK. Play big right now."

Just a game where everyone did something helpful. A little from everybody and played hard defense, very hard, like I haven't seen in years hard. So happy for the team to win one.
 
CJ appeared to question the "walk" call by saying "I was dribbling"
as in "How can you call traveling when I was dribbling the ball?"
 
Saved the ducat and parking slip to remember this win.

Thank you BK for securing the tickets for my son Jordan and I.

Bring on the Buckeyes Tuesday night and look forward to seeing Little Ricky and the Golden Gophers next Saturday.

Nothing better then beating the Nits at Bryce Jordan Center today.

I like the Williams, Kelvin Troy comparison. Different games, similar intensity and effort.

Some of Williams' rebounds are hard to comprehend. How does he take a jump ball from 2 guys 5-6 inches taller?

I made the trip from Newtown as well. Worth the ride.
Good to see the Knights repped in Bucks!
