McKinney recap

We got away with a win in McKinney last night, 66-54. They are a very well coached team with talented guards and a lot of promise. I think they still have a lot of wins ahead of them.

Their two best players scored 20 and 23 points, but I really think we did a good job on them. They got a couple of open shots early, but not many after that. They still made some, but if I guy can score when he is being defended that says more about him as a player than it does our defense.

We were up by 3 at halftime and they came out and showed us some full court pressure and we handled it really well. There were a lot of instances where we were patient until we found a lane, drove the ball to the middle of the floor and created a numbers advantage that led to either a score or FT's.

Speaking of free throws - we were 26 of 31 from the free throw line, which is pretty incredible. The kids not only made their free throws but played aggressive, made good decisions, and most importantly, played together. It was a good win.
