Recap: Marquette 62, Georgetown 59

It'd be tempting to chalk this up to an opponent that couldn't seem to miss from three.

And to a certain extent, that would actually be more or less right. It isn't often that a team takes 11 more dunks and layups than the opposing team, holds the opposing team to 32% from 2, and loses. Repeatedly, the Hoyas were able to get easy shots. And repeatedly, the Hoyas would limit the Golden Eagles to a jump shot. Which the Marquette player would make. Some of them were wide open; but many of them were contested.

Looking deeper, though, the Hoyas still committed some cardinal sins, and they were the usual ones. The team shot decently (not well) but the offense was not particularly strong because of the usual amount of turnovers and poor offensive rebounding.

On the defensive end, the team rebounded well in the first half but couldn't grab the loose balls in the second half. The Hoyas don't lose this game, despite Marquette's outside shooting, if they keep Marquette off the boards in the second half. They didn't.

Guaranteed to be lost in this loss is Austin Freeman's devastating offensive game. He was truly spectacular, dropping 20 with 6 assists and only two turnovers. Despite the loss, he'd be my non-David-Cubillan player of the game.

If you're looking for a goat, it's probably Greg Monroe and his four turnovers or perhaps Julian Vaughn's (only) two rebounds. It was a game of small breaks, and you could pick and choose each of a number of small mistakes if you wanted to pick nits.
