Yes, we stole this one with a decent last 10 mins. The shot choices the 1st 30 mins, the missed FT’s, and all the missed layups were infuriating. We went nuts on the offensive boards in the last 10, but we needed to rebound better in the 1st 30 mins.

I saw a glimpse of last year in those last 5-10 minutes – guards just crashing the glass, closing out on shooters, etc. It left the kid Smith open to do work inside, but it felt like we played with a different intensity. 11 offensive boards in the second half compared to just four in the first.

Foreman and Garcia were fantastic down the stretch. They had the last six buckets for us and eight of the last nine.

31 big minutes for Gueye. It's such a luxury to have him available to back up Otchere. Another very frustrating effort for the latter, although on a couple I felt like his reputation preceded him, particularly the fourth one.

Watch the legs in the next couple days. Aside from Gueye, Geno didn't utilize the bench very much.  Everybody has to sleep fast to get ready for the next one.
