Winners and losers from Tuesday'''s 24-hour tip-off marathon

Winner: Baylor’s offense with Manu Lecomte

Any lingering doubts about Manu Lecomte’s ability to transition to point guard should be long gone by now. The Miami transfer has been better than predecessor Lester Medford in Baylor’s first two games of the season. Lecomte didn’t shoot well against Oral Roberts, yet he still finished with 13 points, 10 assists and zero turnovers. The step up in competition against fourth-ranked Oregon hardly bothered Lecomte as he torched the Ducks for 18 points and seven assists. Lecomte’s performance is a huge reason that Baylor was able to emerge with a 66-49 upset victory. He knocked down big jump shots from behind the arc, made smart decisions with the ball in his hands and created for himself and his teammates off the dribble. If he continues to play at this level, he could become the sixth Baylor point guard in nine years to earn all-Big 12 honors.

Really kinda sad. I was hoping he could turn it around for you guys. One of my all time favorite players was "The Pistol"...always like Shaq as well.

FWIW (and before this weekend's tournament), Lunardi's bracketology this week had Baylor as a 6 in the same region with Xavier as the 2, Louisville as the 3, Oregon the 4, and MichSt the 11. We've beat Oregon, Michigan State, Louisville and play Xavier in Waco on Dec 3. :dunno:
