Kolek planning to go pro
Yeah, he said hi to the rim from the perimeter.BTW, sand knit, you clearly motivated Sacar today.
Kenpom also has Markus as the game MVP. I understand he was just okay for him, but he was still SOTG
Maybe from a purely mathematical sense. And I get that technically, all points are equal. But for SOTG, I think you also need to take game situation into account. Theo and Sacar did more damage when the game was on the line down the stretch, which makes a difference for me.
Theo had 3 baskets.1. Nice post move on a feed from Hauser.2. Dunk off a beautiful lead pass by Markus3. Markus attracts 3 defenders gives to Theo for open layup.Sacar and Theo were great. Both played excellent defensively. Theo had clutch free throws especially since he is a bad free throw shooter. But the only reason Markus is not runaway SOTG is because he is always SOTG and we look for reasons to give it to someone else.
I'll stick with my opinion on Gold. He'll be in foul trouble within the first eight minutes.
Theo and Sacar
But the excellent defense was HUGE. Theo had 3 blocks and made Hall think twice about going inside all day. Sacar spent most of his day chasing Powell around the court. The key offensive plays down the stretch just sealed the deal.
Markus is not getting the LeBron voter fatigue and nobody is losing an appreciation for greatness.Markus is not SOTG because when we went into halftime up 10 the only chance we had of losing that game was getting loose with the basketball and Markus did exactly that. 2-9 with 5 turnovers in the second half from what I can tell, and of his 7 missed shots I would guess 3 or 4 of them were complete airballs that led to transition opportunities for Seton Hall, as well as I would guess at least 3 of his turnovers being live ball turnovers, if not 4. He didn't just play "sub par" in the second half. He was horrendous in the second half.When it was winning time Theo and Sacar stepped up.
Why were we up 10?
