Fire, intensity and confidence. It was night and day the team that was on the floor the first 30 minutes to the team that was on the floor the last 10 minutes.
I loved seeing the bench light up, fans getting into the game chanting "Go Big Blue" and our players on the floor showing and emotion and getting fired up. If we play like that, IMO, we don't lose either of the games we have played. It is frustrating to see them play so soft and without any intensity, as we all can agree I'm sure.
I have faith in Cal and these players that this will be a very competitive team and will compete for a title. We have shown glimpses of what this team can be. This team needs to learn, and hopefully they have from our losses, that they need to come out swinging from the tip. Not try to coast to a victory and turn on the jets at the end.
