ooke didn't have an opening statement so much as a sustained one. He moved the curve by inches in the first quarter — a clean look here, a contested stop there — and let the game come to him.
The first quarter is where it took a real dent — gueye 1' running layup (2 pts) (risacher 1 ast) (-0.3). From that possession on, the curve never had to be rebuilt the same way twice.
The fourth was control. Cooke closed at -0.6 without needing a final flourish to get there.
