A vote. 1. 1st half, Broome bullying straight ahead and Condon took the shoulder to the chest, offensive foul, and Broome wasn’t the same after that. 2. Urban with the back to back DAGGERS on the same possession. 3. Absolutely relentless Thomas Haugh blasting that rebound back to Denzel, hitting the 3 that basically sealed the game. 4. Mid 2nd half, Alex screens for Walt, Walt gets into the lane, and floats an across the basket alley ooo that Alex SKIES and flushes. And about 50 more plays too, but those 4 all brought me out of my seat.
I'll take #4 because it looked so effortless and made the crowd think we couldn't be stopped. #3 was next because the crowd was upset at the missed foul call. Anything to tick off the crowd of the #1 team at home really gets the underdog going everytime.
Hard to pick out any single one because there were so many. Broome apparently believes himself to be untouchable. He gets away with so many little push-offs and holds, he's stunned when he actually gets whistled for something.
On the Haugh rebound to Aberdeen that Auburn fans went nuts about, 3 seconds before that, Broome had both hands wrapped around Condon's waist.
I absolutely love the duck in screen action for Condo late. Three bigs, Haugh in the corner, Chinyelu ducks in to seal the lane, Condo goes right from the left wing and scores at the rim. First time we’ve seen that lineup and that action (IIRC). Golden had it in his back pocket and used it right out of that under 4 to extend the lead.
Haughs home town is not far from me, I may go to the red light with the one 7-11 in town to party with the locals!! Lol
I think CTG was pleased and is thinking, "Hmm, maybe I'll run that for a couple of possessions vs. MSU. See what happens."
It’ll be interesting. That’s something he has talked about with multiple bigs. As long as you can defend put on that perimeter, it’s a really interesting matchup offensively and on the glass.
I loved all of 'em. My fave, though, was not a scoring play. It was a Broome postup 1-0n-1 with Condon who D'd him up and then ate up the rebound. At that point, they knew they were in trouble.
