If we had January Jarron the whole season we probably only have 3 losses.

I'll take it. Vogt had a big bucket when we needed it. Jaevin had a big 3. But yeah, great Jarron is hard to deal with.

Well he doesn't get beat that much, but I agree. I think it's partially the game plan though, Brannen wants Diarra to use his size and athleticism to make his man (who usually isn't a ball handler) uncomfortable. But Diarra gets too tights at times.

Yeah, I'm not saying he's bad, just take a step off and he could probably shut the guy down completely. He's 6'10, he can contest the shot when he isn't in their face. I highly doubt Brannen is telling him to get that tight. Seems like he's just trying too hard to impress.

Yeah I doubt Brannen is telling him to get that tight, but Brannen is probably telling him to get tight because Diarra is capable of it.

Seems like either Diarra is trying to impress or is overconfident in his ability. He's been excellent on defense most of the season, but the last few games not so much. Last game he overhelped and left his man open from three a couple times, this game he was getting too tight and got driven on several times.

Complete shutdown defensively, exetremly impressive, feel like most of their points were off of our turnovers they couldn’t do anything against our half court

Good news is Houston isn't a great shooting team. If we can contain Jarruea's driving I think we will be alright. They also don't have size. Vogt has to play better.

He is risen

Seriously that was insanely fun.
