The Red Storm has found its identity.
Every great basketball team has an identity. The Mike Krzyzewski-era Duke Blue Devils succeeded through their relentless defense and star talent. Villanova’s 2016-2018 run was built off “attitude,” according to two-time NCAA champion coach Jay Wright.
In last night’s 99-77 victory over Bryant, St. John’s found its identity.
In nearly every contest this season, outside of Nov. 22’s double-overtime loss to Baylor, Head Coach Rick Pitino’s Red Storm have started sluggish, but rallied in the second half en route to a blowout victory.
