The 2nd half Moss to Milner dunk was fantastic for style points and timing - how it completed the demoralization of anyone in green - but rewatching the game today, it’s the first half alley oop from Dennis to Milner that really impressed me. When Dennis rebounded Ohio’s missed shot, all five Rockets had a foot in the paint, yet they beat the Bobcats down the floor for a 2 on 1. Even at that early stage of the game, the energy difference between the two teams was clear. Milner has a great sense for when to run out on the break.

Seems like the way to beat Toledo (other than catch us on a cold night) is to pound the offensive boards and make the Rockets pay for relying on guards to rebound. I expect Buffalo to hit the boards hard - will be interesting to see how the Rockets respond.
