To me, the Ohio State person of the game was Thad Matta.
I love the way that he did not let the refs jobbing Ohio State get to him, smiling his way through it.
The moment of the game, a real teachable moment for anyone who wants to be a successful coach, was the way he greeted his team coming off the court at the end of regulation time. He was relaxed, positive, and grinning from ear to ear. They were all smiling and relaxed before they sat down to discuss their strategy for the overtime. Contrast that look on his face and his demeanor to that of VLLLoyd and John Cooper when losing in The Game.
Really first class coaching. Well done, Thad Matta!
