We were outscored by 21 from the arc, but we won by 3 because we outscored them by 6 from 2-point range and by 18 at the foul line. This may be our winning formula, offensively.
We also won with pesky defense, steals, quickness and speed, going up the court and taking it to the hole.
There was a palpable difference in energy in our favor. Home court crowd also did its part (almost undone by the refs).
Going forward, can we win more games than we thought, by playing OUR game and forcing opponents to deal with OUR strengths?
Two successive games now, showing our style of play, even while undersized, can at least keep us competitive.
