I thought Aaron had a very good game against a very good player in Shelton. It was encouraging to see how he stepped up and proved he is one of the better players in our league.
Letting teams back into games that we should be closing out has nothing to do with who we are playing and the level of competition. Every game we should be trying to improve and do what we do better whether we are playing Clovis West or Fresno High.
Tony (Queen) and Ray (String) did a phenomenal job defensively on Hurtado. We executed our game plan and forced him to his left all night and got him frustrated. Not many teams have been able to shut him down. He is really a special player.
Mark did a good job managing the game and getting the ball where it needed to be. This type of performance is what he can give us and what we need each and every night.
Kenny got hot early in the game and then started forcing things a little. But he really has become much more of a complete player who brings the ball up, scores from the outside, drives to the basket and really has started to hit the boards.
