A bit misleading as we now have 6'6-6'7" dudes who can play with the up and down pace of the game and play BIGGER than they really are.

Small ball isn't bad if you are hitting threes. Small ball works when the other team is not hustling back in transition. If you aren't hitting three and the other team hustles back, you can get beat by any team.

Is it just me or does Wilson look like he is taller than 6'7?

I agree, UCONN being terrible in transition is making it look easier for us.

This run illistrates my point. Threes not dropping and UConn hustling back on defense and they are playing like the dominate team.
