It goes to show you 1 guy can change a team. Powell is next-level. Look at us with Corey last year, even though SHU was #15 we stormed back and took them down at home, and Corey was a big reason for the run at MSG in the B1G tournament. If we had a guy like that this year we’d be in good shape, it just has to come naturally. Even so, with a squad of kids barely out of high school, we came back from down 17 at their place and made it a 1-possession game with 2 mins left. That’s when Powell took over and hit the big 3 when they needed it, that’s what that kind of player does.
That said, if he goes to the NBA this year, next year’s contest will break the streak of 6-point or less games - we will beat them soundly.
