Ponds. He had another fantastic all around game. 7 assists, 6 rebs, 4 steals and ZERO to's. Kid is the goods. And our pg had 9 assists and will not get any POG votes.

I'll take 7 and 9 from Lovett everytime over 31 points.
Ponds is incredible. We don't deserve him.

Lovett's passes may be the fastest moving object to ever be on a basketball court. So fun to watch and tonight our guys did a good job catching them.

Ponds' passing is equally impressive and quite unique. How bout the one in the first half to Freud in the left corner. Incredible instincts on him. Lovett's decision making isn't quite as good but his ability level is terrific.  Young and full of potential just need to continue to tighten up the defense and tonight was a step in the right direction.

90+ points in 4 games already. Were closer than our performance this season would indicate.
While Owens played a good game and I have been happy with his play this season at least 2-3 catchable passes went off his hands tonight. Amazing that three of our bigs, Owens, Yakwe and when we had him Sima all seem to have bad hands. Hope they are going through a high amount of drills in practice to improve their hands.

Ponds, he does everything, and bailed the team out several times when they couldn't get anything going in the offensive set. Honorable mention to the staff for going zone in the first half. I think that set the tone for the game as we started off struggling on the offensive end, but we're able to keep fuse off balance with our defense.
