As for the freshman, they have not exactly been consistent either. While it was great to see Martin play so well, it is only one game. Can he do it on a consistent basis from now on? Mickey is great and I have said so before the season started when there were doubters. But even he stunk it up the first half. Quarterman has shown some progress but still has a way to go. He was 1 for 5 today and missed a layup and another easy shot. Stringer who you think is a liability was 2 for 4 and it was probably his two three's late in the game that won it for us.

Pretty spot on IMO.

Our liabilities, Stringer and Hickey, had no turnovers. JOB had 6, Coleman and Mickey 4 each, Morgan and Martin2 and Quarterman 1. Cut those in half and we win going away.

This may be true, but Hickey scored well below his scoring average. I don't know about 'liabilities', but Hickey & Stringer have had their offensive struggles recently. We need all guys to score pretty consistently with the absence of a 15+ point scorer. Luckily, Martin brought it yesterday.
