What We Learned: Northwestern

One thing I learned: We are a tournament team. Period. (slight sarcasm, but not really though)

Agreed, this too.

I learned that Len is a Jackie Chan Fan

wasn't that revealed in one of the other games?

Yes and we will hear it again in the NCAA tourney

no he specifically said LEN grew up a gymnast (hence his cartwheel dunk last year) and that was because he loved Jackie Chan as a kid

Underrated moment of the game....after one of Pe's passes to Shaq where he didn't throw it down, someone got fouled and went to the line. During the free throws Pe and Faust were standing outside the three point line motioning to Shaq that he's gotta pound on people and Shaq was just like don't worry guys, go youtube 'Nerlens gets shat on'.

I love the camaraderie this team has. Unbelievable culture change from last year.

He did say something like that and it made absolutely no sense. I thought he said that Len became a gymnast as a kid because he was a Jackie Chan fan. Which makes even less sense.

this might be my favorite stat of the game

And when the Terrapins weren't hitting threes, they were getting layups. Maryland scored 44 points in the paint, 15 from beyond the arc and 14 from the free-throw line.

That means that they collected just four points on shots between the arc and the key.

How about crediting the Post article from which that came?

I learned that Northwestern is at or near Chicago and purple basketball floors and a sh*tty gym is almost a guarantee that your team will suck forever.
