...they are better 1-on-1 than they are.

We have a really good offense and (to be honest) a paucity of players who have elite level ability to drive and finish at the basket (Wagner).

Smith is an outstanding point guard, but him taking that shot after the switch with Dickenson's man is a "criminal" basketball infraction. Smart guy. Bad play. A step back 3 when a 2 point shot (or 2 FT's) can win the game? With Hunter Dickenson with a mismatch?

I'll add something that is not going to be popular but i'd add Livers in that category. When you sober up, take a lot at all the times he has tried to take his man to the basket or take a shot on his own other than a 3 or a lay up/dunk. He's not great, good, or average at it: he's bad.

But, we're still at #1 seed. The key is can we learn from this.

March Madness indeed.
