  1. Career Game #500 Dec 20, 2014: #11 Kansas (7-3) vs #1 UCLA (10-0) Scouting Report Offense: slow pace, balanced, motionDefense: 2-3, press in close and late situationsKey Players: So PG Brian Bayyan 9.6 ppg, 3.8 apgNotes: KU's top recruit and leading scorer this season, Fr SG Antoine Holcomb (16.3 ppg), out for more than a month 1st Half SG Mark Pettway on fire early, scoring 13 pts in our 19-2 opening run. But that was just a teaser, as Pettway went on to make his 1st 13 shots, and the rest of the team were making almost every basket from anywhere on the court. Hands down the best 1st half shooting performance I have seen in my career Halftime: Up 76-16 Key stat(s) 3PT: UCLA 13-17, KAN 2-9TOs: UCLA 2, KAN 19Key Players UCLA: SG Mark Pettway 37 pts, 9 stls; PG Clint Wright 21 pts, 7 asts 2nd Half Getting outscored by 17 in the 2nd half would normally be a cause of concern for us, but this game was won as early as midway part of the 1st half Final Score: Kansas - 59, UCLA - 102 Box Scores Pettway 43, 5, 0, 9 stls, 2 blks 10 3s (*)Wright 27, 2, 7, 5 3sB Jones 10, 7, 0McCutcheon 8, 5, 2Smith 7, 6, 1, 2 stlsT Jones 5, 2, 5Robinson 2, 1, 0Lucas 0, 3, 2Crayton 0, 2, 1Cotton 0, 0, 3Hendricks 0, 0, 0Stinnett 0, 0, 0 Team Stats FG: 52-42% Rebs: +3 TOs: -20 Pts in paint: +20 2nd chance: +13 Fast break: +22 Post game observations (+): Hidden behind our shooting performance in the 1st half, was the fact that we committed only 3 turn overs the entire game
  2. Career Game #499 Dec 13, 2014: #1 Syracuse (9-1) vs #3 UCLA (9-0) Scouting Report Offense: slow pace, balanced, high postDefense: 1-3-1, presses on occasionKey Players: Fr Kevin Henderson 25.7 ppg, 8.9 rpg, rank #1 recruitNotes: High powered match up between the 2 of the best scorers in the country, SG Mark Pettway and SYR's SG Kevin Henderson. Henderson has played 40 mins in 9 of their 10 games 1st Half SG Mark Pettway struggled early, and missed his 1st 7 shots. Fortunately, our efforts in the offensive glass kept us in the lead. We also limited the shooting opportunities of SYR's SG Kevin Henderson, but their big men showed good range from outside and kept them in the game Halftime: Up 42-34 Key stat(s) 2nd chance: UCLA 9, SYR 2TOs: UCLA 3, SYR 12Key Players UCLA: PG Clint Wright 11 pts, 4 astsSYR: SG Kevin Henderson 6 pts, 4 rebs 2nd Half C Brian Jones has been our most consistent offensive performer so far, who leads all scorers with 17 pts. We continue to do a good job on SYR's SG Kevin Henderson, and SYR has scored only 7 pts so far midway in the 2nd half 10:17, Up 60-41 SYR's offensive struggles continued the rest of the 2nd half. And how quickly SG Mark Pettway can turn things around. After missing his 1st 7 shots of the game, Pettway made 12 of his next 13, and came with his 2nd triple double in the last 3 games Final Score: Syracuse - 51, UCLA - 80 Box Scores Pettway 26, 11, 3, 13 stls, 2 blks, 2 3s (*)B Jones 23, 7, 1Wright 14, 3, 7, 2 blks, 6 tos, 2 3sCotton 7, 0, 1McCutcheon 4, 5, 2Lucas 2, 4, 0, 2 stlsSmith 2, 4, 0Crayton 2, 1, 0T Jones 0, 1, 2Hendricks 0, 0, 0Robinson 0, 0, 0Stinnett 0, 0, 0 Team Stats FG: 49-41% Rebs: +5 TOs: -16 Pts in paint: +34 2nd chance: +5 Fast break: +17 Post game observations (+): It was a classic case of our defense taking care of our offense. We scored 31 fast break pts, mostly from SYR's 28 turnovers. We picked up 19 steals

WIS had to force a lot of contested outside shots, as our defense not allowing them to take easy shots Halftime: Up 50-25 Key stat(s) 3PT: UCLA 6-18, WIS 2-11Stls: UCLA 9, WIS 0Key Players UCLA: SG Mark Pettway 24 pts, 6 stls 2nd Half The game was already out of reach when WIS began to shoot better in the 2nd half.
