An ugly game, but a good win.
We are very evenly matched up with OM. You could tell that neither team was going to run away with it. They were running some stuff that we just couldn't stop. Until we did, late in the game. They ran their point off a hard screen at the top of the key over and over. He'd drive and finish or kick it to a big close in on the other side. At about 4 minutes left, Barnes started sending Grant to stop that sh@t and he got three blocks in a row. Brilliant move by Barnes.
Hubbs was a leader tonight and played his ass off. Williams and Bowden showed a ton of grit.
Here's the kicker - they played like a veteran team for the first time this season, not like a bunch of freshmen. I think they may have turned a corner.
