Our FT shooting was absolutely abysmal during the tournament.

Anyone else surprised they didn't have tighter defense on SS or even a double team? No defender(s) to be seen in this clip:

 

 

I love that we didn't try to run some cute passing play that could have resulted in a turnover.

I think they had to defend that play straight up because if the ball gets into Tavari’s hands a floater or lay up wins it just the same.

Excellent summary of tournament from Zipped Up.

Note differences in Groce post game Toledos. Ignore W vs L

The Zips had the easiest path to a championship that I can remember and made it as difficult as possible. Three stressful games that shouldn't have been stressful at all. 

 

But in the end, the best team in the conference rose to the top.
