Cleveland State Vikings comeback against Iona

Thanks to the Horizon League's free streaming on its site, we were at least able to grab a peek at the other big game of the day. Cleveland State and Iona battled back and forth over the afternoon, and really it came down to execution in the final minutes. The Vikings overcame a 15-point halftime deficit to turn the game from a laugher into a real battle. Trey Lewis provided the spark over the final minutes while Bryn Forbes finished with 22 points. Anton Grady returned to the court after last season's injury with 13 points and 11 boards. David Laury had 19 points and 10 rebounds for Iona in the loss.

Oden, Cole thoughts

Celtics coach Brad Stevens offered thoughts before Saturday's game on the Heat's Greg Oden and Norris Cole.
...
While at Butler, Stevens coached against Cole when the Heat point guard played at Horizon League rival Cleveland State.

"Norris Cole was a handful," Stevens said. "I've not surprised he's having the success he's had.

Cole said he's not surprised Stevens has taken the next step.

"I've had a lot of battles with him," he said with a smile. "He used to torment me as much as I used to torment him."
