Stanford and USF were near even in a really sleepy first half. The tempo picked up a little in the 2nd half and Stanford went ahead by 15 and pretty much maintained that to the end. Every time USF started to get some momentum, Dwight Powell would slash the lane and usually score--very reassuring to see this.
* I don't go to a lot of games, so I don't know what's normal, but it seemed to me that they spent a lot of time warming before the game and during half.
* The Stanford players in general seem like good athletes, but not really basketball savvy.Â
* All of the players can and will shoot three's.
* We don't have a low post scoring threat. Josh Huestis tried more at the end of the game. The bulk of Powell's points came on extremely fast drives from outside the key.
* Andy Brown is my favorite player. He's intense and he seems to have a lot of court sense. He's not the quickest player, but he was diving for loose balls, forcing turnovers, and not standing around on offense.
* Aaron Bright had a bad shooting night, but penetrated easily.
* Anthony Brown had a highlight drive and assist, but otherwise a really quiet night.
* Chasson Randle was unselfish, but I had a lot of confidence in him out there.
