OK that was better...

I think the team played better today (obviously in the 2nd half) than on Friday. Turner still had too many turnovers (was it nine?). I think there are still a lot of things offensively that need to be improved (like shot selection). Our guys almost always connect when they're open and on balance. Dielber is streaky but what I liked about his performance was that he was able to score on fast breaks. He isn't as scared with the ball though his left hand must be an insecurity as he made a routine layup way more difficult but hooking it around with his right.

Defensively we're good. No foul trouble. Free throws almost cost us in the end but overall not a bad percentage there either. Georgia Tech made its mistakes as a young team will but after their great start I'm proud of the way our guys came back and took over.

So Tennessee is the next opponent. They're another one of those teams that can beat anyone in the country, or lose badly as they showed against Kentucky (winning and losing). Unless we go stone cold from the perimeter I think we can handle them (as well as Michigan State or Iowa State!).
