    1. Maybe the most impressive win in the Rick Barnes Era and since the Kansas win after the Tyler Smith gun incident. Only 7 players and without your PG leader, we still win by 20.

    2. Gainey was a warrior, controlling the game and proving to everyone and himself he can handle the point when needed.

    3. I really, really hope Chaz got out of his funk today with that second half flourish. His curl three pointer on the wing is the shot he loves and needs.

    4. The defense was phenomenal, some of the best I've ever seen from us. In particular, we handled a team who worked us over on the interior in Gainesville very well down low. It didn't matter who switched on the low post, they fought and gave up nothing. The Gators missed a few open shots, but we had them frazzled by that point.

    5. Speaking of defense, Jahmai. Hoo boy, what a killer defender the likes of which I can't ever remember having in terms of effectiveness and versatility. If he isn't Defensive Player of the Year this season in the SEC, they should stop giving it out.

    6. Give a little shout here to Bishop Boswell. He was supposed to be a redshirt and has been forced into spot duty the last month. But, he had 3 assists, a steal, and only 1 turnover while playing solid defense and handling the point duties for a bit. Nice work from the youngster.

    7. Okpara having some low post moves in the second half kick started the little run there and he did everything else so solidly, rebounding, defense, blocked shots. H always seems to get a really efficient 10 points and about 8-10 boards per game. The one guy who has improved the most over the course of the season.

    8. Cade and Dubar were good defensively and threw in a few buckets to help the cause. Neither can shoot the ball, which is more concerning for Dubar than Cade.

    9. Missouri is a tough team who can come into another team's place and win. We'll have to be ready and I think Zakai is a must to play. Circling the wagons short-handed only works in the short term. Igor should be back, but ZZ is needed.

    10. I despise Auburn this year more than most teams I can remember going back to the DeMarcus Cousins' UK teams. Broome is a douche. Good Lord, though, they are ridiculous shooters. I don't know who is going to beat them in conference, though. I do hope it is someone, though, and in the tournament, too (Not Duke).

    18-4!

    We were extremely close to going 3-0 against Auburn, UK, and UF. A fine line between 3-0 and 1-2.
