Niko Medved believes in a certain style of offense — give the ball up, get it back and score easy baskets. As he's said after plenty of games this year, that's the way basketball should be played.
On Saturday afternoon in Moby Arena, the Rams (7-10, 2-2 Mountain West) bought into their coach's beliefs better than they have all year, leading to a telling 91-76 victory over visiting New Mexico (8-8, 2-2 MW).
"I thought we did a beautiful job attacking the zone early," Medved said. "We kept it simple, got it in the middle, made really good decisions when we got it in there, evidenced with 26 assists, nine turnovers.
