[QUOTE="RockfordIllini, post: 2013745, member: 8716"] I know the Goode vs Ty decision has been beaten to death, but one last point I’d like to make is we really could have used Ty on offense as well. Brad constantly harps that his entire philosophy is predicated on finding a way to win when the ball isn’t going in. The ball wasn’t going in the last 7 minutes, but maybe Ty steals a couple of buckets with offensive rebounds. Maybe he draws fouls. Or maybe he just steals you an extra possession or 2, which both cuts down on MSU’s ability to score and gives them additional opportunities to make mistakes on defense. Nevermind the defensive problems which were obvious. We needed toughness plays on offense because our shots weren’t going down. Positive is that’s probably the best we’ve looked since TJ’s been back for about 32 minutes. The bad is the late game execution is starting to become a trend. Still time to get that bite back defensively and figure out late game execution and rotations offensively. No great teams this year, will all come down to who is playing the best. Still a chance it’s us. [/QUOTE]
