I agree with some of the posters above--this was a good win, but we need to improve if we are going to go deep in the post season. For example, if we play Oregon State again in the Pac 12 tournament and they have Beers back, Brink will not get 8 O-boards.
We need our supporting cast to rise to the occasion, particularly on offense. That means three point shooters have to hit at least a few more to keep the opposing teams from collapsing all over Brink and Iriafen. A good defensive scheme can clog the paint and take away Jump--we saw that last year over and over and again last night.
We must have three point shooting from Bosgana, Lepolo, Demetre, Ogden, Harriel, and/or Agara. We did pretty well with that last night--those six players were collectively 4/10, but Jump was 0/4 under withering pressure. On a night when Brink gets triple teamed, we absolutely must make more than 4 treys.
