Great job of coaching by Matta!
Neitzel has been highly successful against man defensive alignments. His game excels when he runs off screens-- last year he lit us up with the 3 balls.
As much criticism as this team received this year for sticking to its zone D, this was one game where it made a difference controlling Neitzel.
His movement was not as effective because we didn't "chase" him.
His 3 pt. shooting cooled off, ended 2 for 5 for the game, and was erratic on his 4 other 2 pt shots.
