embhard 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 broke open — nembhard 5' running finger roll layup (2 pts) (+2.0). From that possession on, the curve never had to be rebuilt the same way twice.
The fourth was control. Nembhard closed at -0.0 without needing a final flourish to get there.
