Richie feeling it from 3!

Not really loving what I'm seeing from either Mag or Baker at any point in this game, but I suppose Mag is at least holding his own defensively. But man, really need him to man up and be strong in both possessing the ball and rebounding, and he seems not inclined towards either one.

I have no words for Demin. This is the first time I've seen him play thanks to the broadcast Gestapo, but wow, he's even better than advertised.

Hey Mag with the open corner three and knocks it down!! That's a great sign. If he can take just one or two a game, keep it low volume, and hit about 32%, that'll be perfect for him.

We just struggle so much with rebounding. I keep seeing these misses come off and I'm like, oh we got that one easy, and somehow CA keeps coming away with it. I can't figure out how. So frustrating. I don't remember it being this bad last year.

Baker... just... wow dude, he's a stormtrooper out there. My goodness. This is why it's good to have depth, some dudes just take nights off I guess. Nice to be able to just leave a guy on the bench that doesn't have it.

Crawford and Saunders out there together in a press, that's an interesting idea. I think you need to add Demin's length out there as a third node and you might have something real interesting.

The team is just struggling mightily out there to run any kind of offense with Crawford at the point. Everything stops. Lots to work on.

So - many - bad - three point - shots. Criminy. Do a little work for a good shot. Stop being so lazy.

I just watched a possession where everyone stood around and watched first Baker, then Saunders, then Crawford take turns trying to break down the defender one on one and they couldn't do it and backed it out. Against supposedly inferior competition. Sobering to watch, besides the fact that it's ugly iso ball.

I like how many steals and deflections I'm seeing, at least the length and quickness are there even if the team concepts are not yet.

Catchings, again, has such a sweet stroke. All he has to do is not throw up junk under duress.

Fouss hasn't quite been himself out there, seems a bit slow of hand and we really need his rebounding but he hasn't been very strong down there.

KK 2 for 2 on FTs!

Really great combo at 5 min left with Demin penetrating, out to Bosko, dribbles to the top of the key, hits Catchings who takes a big step to his left and hits the three.

I like what I'm seeing from Bosko. A little shooting, a little passing, a little finishing with flair at the rim, a little defense... he's going to help us.

Nice pass by Mag for the Bosko layin!

Coach Cleveland was really high on Baker yesterday but wow, he might have been the worst BYU player on the floor tonight. Holy smokes.
