Really enjoyed last night. First of all the Bears played excellent defense for basically the entire 40 minutes. Only some terrific shooting by the Buffs in the first 15 minutes kept them close. Many of the shots were contested but continued to drop. You got the feeling watching that they couldn't keep that up, and eventually they fell back to earth. Not only did the Bears play good defense but also smart defense. No stupid fouls. Only a couple of ticky tack calls early in the second half and basically no one was in foul trouble.
Excellent execution on offense and the ball was well distributed. The only player off his game was Grant, but I've noticed that over time he is very good at self evaluating from night to night, thus he didn't press the issue and try to force shots.
It was really nice to see Matt get quality shots. He doesn't need a large amount of shots to get 20+. Paris and Andre continuing to play well, and Joel played great defense as usual. And of course Kareem gave us a welcomed revival shot in the arm.
Hope to see this continue through the final stretch.
Go Bears!
