I am surprised Sestina isn't getting more props. He got the standard 2 ghost fouls on him but the guy did lots of dirty work today and made a couple big plays.

Sestina, Montgomery, Juzang and Brooks all had big time contributions. Hell of a game by all four role players.
I just looked at the box score. very balanced scoring. everybody contributed.
This is the game we needed them step up to win and they did. Hagan's out, Quickly on the bench and Maxey smothered. We had no business winning this game. Our role players played great!
Pretty much everyone that played contributed in a big way in the second half .
Richards and his offense just elevated us to give us a chance.
Total team effort and everyone had a hand in it. Every piece of this roster matters.

I thought he played well, today. Three good put backs. Two for buckets and one for two foul shots. Hustled the entire game, plus he is starting to hit 3's again.
Nate was born in a log cabin he built with his own 2 hands.
Not nearly as good defensively as Jorts, but on offense, they're somewhat similar.
There was a 5 min stretch from about the 10 min mark to the 5 min mark in the 2nd half that Richards put Big Blue on his back and carried the Cats with about 8 straight points.
That was the difference in the game.
Really not the same except they're white. Jorts had some huge games including outplaying Sullinger.
I love sestina but he isn't anywhere near that caliber
Sestina was player of the game and did the interview with Pratt afterwards. He played great. Very happy for him.

Watched it a 2nd time as well. Cats won again.
Florida scored 11 points in the last 11+ minutes and just 6 in the last 8:14. Refs let them play and that helped as Cats walled up down the stretch. Nate was great.
What was strange was EJ sat for Nate for 5/6 minutes when Nate made several big plays. Then Cal sits Nate and puts EJ back in who made 2 key plays at the end.

I thought Brooks really played well.
Always figured Brooks had more to his game. Dad was a player. He grew up in Indiana and played for the #1 HS team in the nation as well as Indiana’s best AAU team.
Glad to see it coming out. Big game for him.

Nate also had a great hustle play where they had a defensive board and he poked it away resulting in an easy bucket for Nick.
Brooks, May very well have a major part in the team next year. He recently has gotten less than “in and out” playing time. I think he is more comfortable, and confident, that he is playing the way Cal wishes for him.
I think he may be very helpful in the tourney.
I agree..
As soon as he gets the defensive stuff figured out his offensive versatility will take off
I thought he was actually pretty solid defensively too yesterday. There were a few times where a guard drove into the lane and he didn’t let them get past while at the same time knowing exactly where his own man was.
I want to know how many during the game went nuts when the Florida guy hung on the rim not once but twice with no call. Such a double standard in college basketball. The Shows thing has been coming for awhile as well. He is awful and hates Cal.
