DAVE'S POSTGAME ANALYSIS

PLAYER OF THE GAME: LaVall Jordan. Vall did all he could in the final minutes to keep the Dawgs in the game, but it just wasn't enough. He finished with 17 points and was 4-of-6 from 3-point range.

Rylan Hainje had 12 first half points en route to 14 for the game. Brandon Miller finished with 10 points, and Darnell Archey added 10 points and 5 rebounds off the bench. Joel Cornette had 5 points and 7 rebounds. Detroit was led by Willie Green's 20 points.

We made a lot of poor decisions at inopportune times in the second half, and made some mental mistakes that led directly to Titan points. Green rebounded his own free throw miss and had an uncontested put back that really put the game away. Jordan hit 2 big threes to keep us close, but we couldn't get over the hump. My hat's off to the Titans, they certainly deserved the win.
