[QUOTE="Genesis, post: 1444879, member: 9747"] Looking strictly at the W/L record lately, this seems like an anomaly, but it's not. We have to write off that FL Atlantic game. Last night was the culmination of momentum that has been building. A number of factors are all coming together at the same time. Ayo needed a little time to get used to the college game and he has now. He's shown over the last five games that his great play is sustainable. Same thing for Giorgi. He's developed some moves and an aggression that we can reasonably expect to continue. Trent has obviously struggled but he's starting to find a way to have great games without having to rely on hitting 5 three's in a game. His current game is more sustainable. Most importantly, the whole team has bought in. Even after loosing a number of games in a row, they are still coming out every game and fighting. We won't win the BTT and we won't make the big dance, but now they've tasted success and they'll like it, and want more. We'll be fun to watch and will surprise a number of teams during the rest of the season. [/QUOTE]
