Predictions vs. Providence?

[TheLongHaul]

I really liked what I saw from Shaq. Though he made a couple yesterday, he still needs to slow down and look at the basket before he shoots.

Thought the Bearcats played their best all around game in 2-2 1/2 months. Loved the aggression. Using Shaq and Sanders for 17-19 minutes was a big plus not only from a strategy and production standpoint but it saved legs too. Back to back games over 3-4 days is grinding, especially in a championship atmosphere. I thought Sanders played really good D yesterday and really what more can be said of Shaq.

Guyn plays with intensity but lacks restraint...similar to Rubles when driving to the basket when he picks up a charge...Shaq's ability to handle the ball, as well as penetrate really was displayed yesterday...i am glad the kid finally got a chance yesterday...would love to see him play the same, if not more against GTown

Agreed...Rubles drives me nuts when he drives, gets past his guy, and stops and looks back to pass, then travels. All he has to do is continue to the rim and score or get fouled.

I think Guyn can be a decent player if he could stay on the floor. He works hard and plays hard but to stay on the court you have to play smart.

I think Rubles found a solution to his inability to drive, when he attempted late, had the D sag on him, and then passed to Cheikh for the jam. I'll bet he tries that at least once today.
