SFM. And, I really liked Jops 2H energy, he and Stevie did all the little things AND made shots

[Elonsmusk]

Stevie is a dude

Sure is. Would be great if Chase could evolve into a dude as well, as we'd been told he was in the off-season.

[Hards Alumni]

All american point guard comes back from a deep tissue injury and drops 18/11/6...

Stevie has that juice though.

[Johnny B]

Kam

Stevie

Wonder how much his injuries have effected his growth

[Vander Blue Man Group]

Stevie, which says something considering how good Kam and TKO were.

Jop with an outstanding 2nd half.

Oso gets a mulligan.  Need him going forward badly. 

[WarriorHal]

Stevie over Kam for his all-around game today.

[willie warrior]

Some people don't know basketball. No question, Kolek, 18 points and 11 assists

[Tyler COLEk]

Some people don't know basketball.

Very true.

[BM1090]

Stevie but Kam was awesome after the first 5 mins when they desperately needed to score.

[Big Papi]

Some people don't know basketball. No question, Kolek, 18 points and 11 assists

Kolek kept us in it in the first half and had a great all around game but we needed the egb's that Stevie provided in that second half that got us back in that game.

Ok, Dung

Wonder how much his injuries have effected his growth

I think it's affected his confidence at the rim - he's beating his man off the dribble but then looks to pass.

[WellsstreetWanderer]

I'm not changing my Stevie vote but Jop with 11 rebounds, 13 points, 3 assists and only 1 foul

He the rebounder we have to have. Great game from him   He and Stevie were our needed rebounders today

[mileskishnish72]

28 from Kam, double-doubles from Jop and TyKo! Wow!

STOG, though, is Stevie. he is the EGB poster child.

[Elonsmusk]

Wonder how much his injuries have effected his growth

Hard to say. Shoulder shouldn't have affected his ability to finish go to the basket. His athleticism just doesn't seem to translate to being a good finisher.   And today his defense wasn't very good either.

Had a couple of nice defensive plays but overall, he was a liability.  The whole team struggles to finish at times.  Well, except in the second half today

[Afroman]

Stevie is just what a team needs for a deep tourney run.

[Pepe Sylvia]

Kam's scoring was so proficient and necessary I can't overlook him. He gets my vote.

I'd like Jop for his 11 boards over Stevie.

But goddamn did I love what I saw from most everybody.

I don't like it when Oso doesn't play well, it hurts my soul worse than when other players have off games.

But that's a "me" problem, I have immense trust in Oso going forward.

[Frenns Liquor Depot]

Hard to pick with so many exemplary contributions.  So I'm going with Kam—he was overwhelming for wku. 

[jeffreyweee]

The amount of wide open shots that Tyler created was absurd. On top of being the only one keeping us in the game in the first half, it really just has to be Tyler.

Stevie made important plays. Kam had scoring explosions that helped us separate.

Tyler was an engine every single possession in a pretty remarkable way.  He's the reason we were so frustrated by missing wide open shots all game -- he created SO MANY wide open shots.

[MU Fan in Connecticut]

Stevie for being a game changer.

[Herman Cain]

Tyler Kolek

[Lennys Tap]

Stevie was great in the 2nd half. So was Kam. Jop was good too.

Kolek had 18, 6, 11 and 2 steals. And without him the game would have been out of reach at halftime. He's the SOTG.
