Let me say this first I am no expert on most of these guys since I don't watch NCAA. However I can tell ya what I noticed during the game. Michael Eric must have had a quiet good stat type of game. I never heard his name once during the game. I can tell you about who did standout.
Terrance Jones is a player. He was always in a good position to score down low and had the power to convert multiple and 1's.
Michael Carter Williams guy had decent stats but his game showed a lot of issues. The good is he has good PG vision and drives to the hoop a lot. He also converts a good amount of those hard shots when he drives or gets the foul called. The bad is he can not shoot at all and he plays like he has no idea of this fact. He took a bunch of pull ups that Steph Curry would take. He takes contested shots and the worst part of his game is that he can not handle pressure defense. Houston made it a point to play him close the whole game. They sprinkled in some traps on PNRs. He did not handle this well with a ton of turnovers and bad shots. He is too slow to defend smaller PGs. He seemed to do decent when trying to post up the PGs and the defence had to change to counter it.
Lastly, I like that Patrick beverly guy. He is like one of those old vets that knows tricks and uses them well. he also plays hard no matter who he is playing with or where he is playing. He played Michael Carter Williams like Westbrook in the playoffs.
