Morgan gave a solid 5 minutes.

I knew he would be needed tonight. Good for him.

I thought so too. He is a better option than Horford at this point.

Agree, I was happy for him. That's gotta be rough losing most of your time right before the big tournament run starts. It looked like he was really feeling like part of the team again. You could even say his defense was the difference on Kansas's last drive, influencing that guy (Johnson?) into making a foolish pass that basically sealed it.

Yes indeed he did, Fish---and I was so happy for him. None more solid, IMO, than on that last-second series. Everyone's as much down on Johnson for not taking that layup as they are for his fist-to-the-nutz on Big Mac.

But maybe, just maybe, it would not have been a routine layup? Jordan was right there with him. That almost certainly affected his decision-making process.

Not quite sure, Shoes. Yes, I love Jordan's dedication, and he's two years Horford's senior,
but unless I confused numbers (Horford's 15, right?), he (#15) had three or four very athletic,
determined rebounds last night, outleaping and outreaching even Kansas' white birch tree
in the process.

He just looks lost on defense though. But you're right we needed every contribution we got last night.
