This is the first time we have looked like what we remember JC’s teams looking like at Siena and MSM.  It’s the first time we are playing defense to attack, not just to play it.  It’s fine that they’ve gotten a couple of easy buckets when we play like this - forcing TOs, getting in transition, and getting threes up off less predictable assists.

What a move by Darnell with the shot clock running out.  Looked like his dad, other than missing the floater.

Absolutely. Hoping the coaching staff recognizes this and gets rid of the awful zone.

This is quite an implosion by UMBC. Horvath has gone from the Second Coming of Michael Jordan to JuCo reject, Darnell looks so high strung he may snap, Akin looks like frosh year Marfo.
And all it took was some better D and stretching out possessions to include a pass or two.

Dumb, dumb, dumb by Nelson, who put the final nail in our coffin for this game.

JNJ having a pretty bad shooting night. Still amazes me how athletic this kid is though.

Ok, this is starting to look like a game plan that works and is fun to watch.

welp

Note when James passes in rhythm

Is this the long-awaited mayhem?
 

Can we play man the rest of the season?
