Here's Ingemi's article re the game in this morning's SF Chron e-edition. Should not be behind a paywall

One thing that really stuck out to me last night was the large number of assists, says a lot about the team working as a team since no one in particular dominated the assist numbers. In first half, there were 14 assists on 15 made baskets (12 of them 3s, which everyone must be aware of by now). That's extraordinary. For game as a whole, 25 assists on 37 made baskets. Interesting that assists/baskets went down in the 2nd half when the ratio of 2s to 3 flipped -- in 1st half, it was 12 3s, 3 2-pointers; in 2nd half, was 6 3s, 16 2s.
I am concerned about rebounding, as I was in the 1st half of the exhibition game. Last night, it was 19 for the Card, 18 for Le Moyne. But 2nd half, much better -- 26 vs 14, so by game end, the Card outrebounded the Dolphins 45 vs 32. Maybe a reflection of the differences in the shots Stanford was taking, almost no O boards in 1st half with all the 3s, getting them in 2nd half with the greater work in the post, going inside.
