Just now looking at the box score:

Good
  • 5 first half minutes for Josh. He needs seasoning now because I guarantee we'll need late game minutes out of him at some point. Big men tend to foul a lot...
  • 38 minutes for Andre. Coach K rode the hot hand. I suspect we'll see a lot of variance in minutes early this season.
  • We only lost on the boards by 1. Our guards did a good job of hitting the boards. I'll take it vs. Izzo.
  • 3 point shooting. We're at about 50% for the season.
    41 free throw attempts. More please.



Bad
  • 8 assists, 17 turnovers. Bad ratio!
  • Only FG attempts by our 4/5 guys. We fed the post, but MSU guys seemed to push our bigs off the post a step or two beyond where they are actually capable of making a post move.
  • Only 4 offensive rebounds.
  • Keith Appling went off the last 5 minutes. Not cooooool.



I dont know
  • No Silent G this game. I would love to see him get some minutes early in the season, of course I have no idea how he has been in practice.
