Coach Miller says to take it game by game; there’s a bit of a dissonance between throwing up 39 points per game and saying a cliche like we are playing the games one at a time. He’s holding his cards close to his chest. As I’ve watched more action — parts of three games, I see more nuance in the story. Stay tuned.

Hi Mark,

Looking forward to seeing the article,
