It wasn’t a dream.
Kim Anderson might need to pinch himself and Missouri basketball fans can be forgiven if there’s a touch of disbelief, but Wednesday’s overtime win against Auburn in the opening round of the SEC Men’s Basketball Tournament at Bridgestone Arena really happened.
“It’s March, baby,” sophomore guard Terrence Phillips said. “You see these games last year and as a kid, these game-winners, and you just want to be a part of that. … I felt like we were due one. There’s so many games we were so close and right there.”
Truth be told, it was almost too perfect not to happen.
