Game 16 — Brown: The Good, Bad and the Ugly

The good: Comeback! Over the last two seasons, time and time again I've watched Penn fall behind before halftime, claw back through the next 10-15 minutes and then fail to overtake the lead and win. Forget that it was against Brown for one moment — just the fact that the team showed to themselves that they could battle back and finish was important moving forward.

The bad: Brown's Tucker Halpern. He put together a little run where it didn't look like he could miss a three-pointer. But the final stat-line didn't look so good. 4-for-13 overall, 3-for-10 from deep. That's a lot of missed threes. Even worse, though, Miles Cartwright was 1-for-7 from deep, 2-for-12 overall. As they say, know when to hold 'em, know when to pass to Jack Eggleston (11-for-15 overall, 3-for-5 from three).

The ugly: Brown's final seven minutes. The miscues are as follows:

Fouling Conor Turley's layup with 46 seconds left, and giving him a free-throw shot, which he made, tying the game and sending it into overtime
Incurring a 5-second violation on the Bears' inbounds pass with 40-seconds left, turning the ball over and giving Penn a final shot.
Allowing two Penn dunks (Eggleston and Turley) in overtime. That's a lot of momentum.

And who could forget that airball free throw from Brown's Tyler Ponticelli. That was pretty ugly too.
