Villanova (MSG), Wed., Jan. 24, 8:30p, FS-1

I am almost upset that they have a week off. I want them to carry this momentum into the weekend. Team is playing with confidence. This is probably their best 40 minute effort all season (I missed the first half but saw the box score, so obviously could be wrong on that).

Amazing how the team is still growing each and every game -- and its not a cliche.
 
Up to 5 wins without having played DePaul or Georgetown yet.

Joel is back. Need this version of him the rest of the season. He opened the gap between him and Zuby again and not because Zuby did anything bad, he was solid again too.

Don't think anybody else played particularly well offensively but nobody was bad either. Everybody played smart for the most part especially Taylor who never takes bad shots.

Defense was great. Thought we were somewhat lucky in first 30 mins with Nova missing some open shots again but the D was suffocating once Nova got as close as 5.

Good time for a week off. Everybody gets a little reset to get healthy and don't have to be on edge in the midst of a losing streak all week.
