Thought he shortened his rotation and road his guys for the most part . Love that he left Young in down the stretch and overtime . Still could have maybe given Paul a few less minutes ; he can’t be in with Duke because we are playing 3on 5 offensively .
X’s and O’s wise , I thought Pike toon advantage of Purdue having Eastern on Ron a lot and did a great job of keeping him in the corner to take Eastern out of the game . If Eastern helped , it’s an easy kick to Harper from the strong side .
Additionally I love that Pike road the pick and roll and ghost or dummy pick and roll to get a switch on geo to create a mismatch to let him go on one one . Again , very simple , but very smart . Again , I was in Pike for not running more sets and motion , but sometimes you put your players in a good situation and let them go to work . Thought he out-coached Painter big time down the stretch yesterday
