My thoughts from the game

For starters it was a very entertaining game to watch.

I like that it's hard to pick out anyone that really played bad; there are a number of guys that could've played better but overall it felt like each player did something to help the team. Geist didn't have a great stat line but did play some pretty good D, Phillips was great running the offense and dished 8 assists.

I liked what we got from some of the lesser used guys: Jackson had a nice stat line and had surprisingly good handles, Smith had a pretty good few minutes of play.

I thought our offense looked much better than usual, we were actually running plays throughout the game and we were adjusting to what the defense gave us; we were able to generate some easy buckets and good looks. My only issue was often times it took us way too long to get the offense started, part of that was due to their press but we often didn't get the offensive sets started until like 15 or 18 seconds left on the shot clock.

Let's keep this going through the next 3 games leading up to Arizona (who has been struggling so far this season).
