Lighty needs to close out and stop jumping for the blocked shot. He's done it three times this half and given up an easy drive to the basket forcing us to collapse and try and recover.

Agree with that. Surprising for me, coming from such a good veteran defender as Lighty. He seemed to hit a funk there at the end of the season, and just now seems to be getting out of it. Hopefully we won't see many more defensive lapses in judgement as we go into the tourney.

yeah, on defense you should never leave your feet, but...

I think the Bucks are focusing on stopping the three. Too easy for PSU to get a run going if they hit a bunch of threes............

Right on cue...

I'd rather they leave their feet and run the guy off the shot (without fouling). Especially with Lauderdale in the game, I'll take my chances with Penn State trying to make their comeback in the paint.

Of course, right as I say that, Lauderdale comes out of the game for Sullinger.
