Box Score Snapshot

Rebounder: Josh Heytvelt 6 Boards
Passer: Jeremy Pargo 4 Assists
Swatter: Austin Daye 3 Blocks
Theif: Steven Gray 2 Steals

Game MVP:Demetri Goodson
4 Points, 2 Assists, and 1 Board
He only played 12 Minutes, but honestly without him on the court the Zags would have lost by 40. Thats how much better they played with Goodson. He attacked the rim, he played tenacious defense and he got the rest of the team fired up...I thought that pargos job, oh well...


Team Comparison: Zags/Tigers
Points: 50/68
Assist to /Turnover Ratio: 0.53/0.69
Rebounds: 21/37
Shooting Percentage: 37%/44%
3pt Percentage: 27%/35%

Notes from the sideline:
-The Tigers dominated in every sense of the word
-Demetri Goodson showed why he is the point guard of the future. He was simply awesome for the last 8 minutes of the second half.
-Josh Heytvelt had a few moments where he looked like his old self.
-Micah Downs stepped up and hit a few big threes

What it means for the future (Analysis):
We got plastered. When this season started i thought we were Final Four material, now, not even first or second round material. Memphis had their way and pummeled the Zags every step of the Way.
