This was a good game plan, took advantage of our inside strength vs their non strength. And on defense we did a heck of a job limiting open threes. For some reason in the beginning of the first half they tried to play a half court offense trying to get the ball inside. I guess they thought that would allow their guards an opportunity for easy open three point attempts.

Marlin commented about Long having a couple of bad turnovers in the second half. They were awful. He looked at the defenders and threw the ball right to them. I jokingly said to Mrs. Express point shaving. Yes, jokingly, he was very upset with both of those errant passes.
