Look, we still don't know how good this team is. Is it an NIT squad? Dare we dream bigger? I honestly don't know.
What I DO know is that Mizzou is now the only team in the country to post a minimum of 20 assists in each of its games (27 tonight on 35 made buckets) That's not good, that's fantastic.
Plus, guys I know even less well than the players getting the bulk of the minutes (including the AD's son, and the super-popular kid who reminds me of Smeagol before he went all ring-goofy) got more than a shot clock worth of action out there...so that's really good.
They're fun to watch. They legitimately play hard. And they can score from multiple levels with several different options. They pressure the ball. They help and communicate. I mean...yeah.
We'll see, kids. We'll see. These guys have my attention.
