His play won't show up on the stat sheet but Jordan did a good job of guarding and rebounding. Jordan played about 25 minutes and really gave us a spark tonight.
I thought their post players did a good job of being physical with Nemanja and making him catch the ball from 15 feet instead of eight feet and in, and that was big.
That year he learned to take a business-like approach to practice, not just coming in some days, be good and then take some days off like some players do. He's allowed himself to be more consistent by taking that approach to practice.
It seems like we've always been fortunate enough to bounce back after a loss this season. I thought we did a good job of playing defense for 40 minutes, which was a concern from the last outing (a 73-57 loss to Howard). We also did a good job of getting the ball (inside).
Not only was he a good basketball player but he was a coach on the floor. That's the greatest compliment you can give a point guard. He was the extension of what I wanted and a lot of times I didn't even have to tell him what to do on the court.
He's got a good family and they were real appreciative of the people of Midland, who helped them out.
