    Stat I found interesting (diverse Offense)

    Pope was sending 3-4 guys to the boards. There doesn't appear to be a rebound that gets conceded. If for no other reason than it slows down the advance of the ball.

    Is this the worst 1-0 team ever?

    "Bigs handling the ball too much"? Get used to it. A fully functional Mark Pope offense has a Point Center at the top of the key.

    30 assists, 11 steals, 7 turnovers

    Garrison had 5 assists. I think my favorite play was a give-and-go where the go guy hesitated until the defense relaxed. Then, wide open shot.

    Negatives from tonight's game; I'll go first

    Their defense actually looks ahead of their offense, and their offense is very good. They have a nice pinch move on defense to narrow the opponent's goal to the rim. Just shading a little, but it makes the path to the rim harder. Because they do it in a timely way and almost every time. So...

    Too young? Too thin? Goes solo too much? I don't know. He didn't scream pro material to me, but I'm hardly sought after for my ability as a talent evaluator. In the run up to last season, there was a game between a bunch of All-Stars and Reed Shepard's team. Mid-West something. Anyway...

    12 years? Good for him. I never knew he'd played pro ball at all.

    What are your favorite sports venues?

    One Spring more than 50 years ago, I was in love with a woman who was a hot walker. I'd go out to the track in the mornings to just hang out to get a chance to talk to her. Beautiful, quietly busy times during that run up to racing season. A lot of the grooms in those days were women -- maybe...

    What are your favorite sports venues?

    Favorite sports venue? Easy. The tennis courts on Hampton Rd in Rocky River, OH. They're right next to Rocky River Middle School now. It used to be Rocky River High a zillion years ago. Hampton Rd Tennis Courts The link goes to a Google Map Street View image. When we couldn't get enough...
