This isn't a great team by any means, but what a refreshing change of pace.

Its so good to see the guys having fun, and playing loose, confident, & relaxed. Wow.

From what I can tell, Smart's offense basically lives & dies by making 3s and penetration layups and drawing fouls. Smart has also created some inside plays for Ridley.

I like the sets that Smart runs and how it creates opportunities for penetration for lay ups or kick out 3's.

1) I am super impressed with Cameron Ridley's improvement. Not only has he showed that he can keep up with the fast pace, but he's scoring more and just looking good.

2) The 3 freshman guards....extremely impressed. These 3 guys are very talented and have bright futures ahead of them.

3) Looks like Smart is finally catching on when to use Demarcus Holland. Holland was noticeable absent during the final minutes of the game. Smart used more offensive minded players instead...Roach & Davis.

I must've missed it...was Yancy hurt or sick? Or has he already been passed up?
