[NU Sports] CATS 61-59

[mlinhardt at netzero.net]

Originally we had not planned on going to this game, but we were given 
a pair of tickets.

I came into the game with 2 stats in mind via the pre-game PDF.
During the Carmody era:
Leading or tied at half 65-15 -- 81%
Opponent shoots worse than 45% 73-29 -- 72% 

As I saw them miss shots, even though they get o-boards I knew it 
looked good and when combined with the 3 point halftime lead I knew it 
was in the bag.

Unfortunately we almost self-destructed with sloppy press breaking, 
poor defense and horrid free throw shooting.

It seems that the only person that can manufacture his own shot is 
Doyle.  I can't believe I am saying this as I have zero confidence in 
him as a player.  Everybody else is a open-look catch and shoot player.

This post is such a downer, but I just don't see any Tyrell, Bacher, 
Brendan, or Sharrick type players.
