I didn't realize how unsustainble the 16pt lead was until I realized how much of that had been a combination of dumb kal turnovers and hot shooting from Stanford. The turnovers stopped, and Stanford shooters went cold...then we lost by 12. Oof. Maybe Stanford's defensive efforts helped with the turnovers, maybe not. I would have liked to have seen Stanford try to drive and draw more fouls, but I saw fouls not being called when we did drive (JDS tried to put this team on his back, bless his heart, but he didn't get the calls). Also, our bigs need to make those bunnies. Those are the easiest looks they'll get, and tournament looks only get harder. If they can't make those, they're not tournament stuff.
