-This now becomes the best win of the season. UVA played well. They played good offense and really good 1st half defense. To come back after being down 12 and 13 points against a team like this is big time stuff.

-We were lucky to be down only 10 at half. Clark outplayed Nelly, Burton struggled with the pack line D and Fede did not play well. Nike gave us a huge lift and kept us in the game.

-I knew this game would be tough for Burton because of the way they play D and because they were going to put Beekman on him and he is a very good defensive player. But JB did not force too much, let the game come to him and picked his spots.

-Nelly had a rough first half and struggled to guard Clark. He played a flawless 2nd half on both ends of the court.

-Fede, like the Carolina game, had a bad first half, but he really had a super last 15 minutes on both ends of the court.

-Hinson had a solid offensive game and hit 2 big 3’s, but his D on Gardner was huge. Gardner was not effective and they ended up going with Van Der Plaus more and that helped us greatly on the offensive end.

-This team and staff have done such a great job of adjusting and making changes as the games progress. This trend started after our losses in Brooklyn and continue each game. We have now scored over 40 in the 2nd half in 11 straight games.

-This team plays hard, they play tough and they now deserve everyone to jump on board and start filling up the Pete again. Let’s start on Sat.

Nice stat at the end there.
 
It concerns me that we need 40 in second half to win. He has to work on that so we have a complete 40 minutes. Comeback kids usually always get burnt at some point.
