UNLV REBELS
-
Looks like we’ll get to see the start of the game on CBS after all. Thanks Indy for putting away the Bengals early!
By the way, RIP Stuart Scott. Another loss to cancer. I always thought he was too much of a UNC homer, but he knew his stuff.

@Lulufulu I agree 100%. But I don’t think Self is saying to necessarily have the post guys shoot more from outside. I think what Self is talking about is still getting shots close to the rim, but getting the ball to the guys differently. Our standard deal is the post entry pass to the stagnant big guy on the block. He’s referring to the bigs receiving the ball in different ways, I believe.
For example, perhaps, more direct flashing across the lane (coming from the other side toward the ball), elbow to box slide (post at the elbow and slide down), some low to low exchange (movement between two bigs box to box – or even elbow to box) or some screening action. I think that’s what he means by “work(ing) back in.”
Again, that seems real positive to me. But as you say, “talk is talk.”
-
At the game… Why aren’t we pressing their SR point guard that appears to have junior high handles?
-
@Kip_McSmithers and can’t see cause of his hair in his eyes!!!
-
Not a lot of whistles either. Who’s the ref with the old woman’s haircut?
-
@Kip_McSmithers Has to back in on the dribble so it’s definitely there for the pickin’.
-
From what Ive seen as a team they’re a little questionable in the ball handling department. Not sure why we don’t press more???
-
@Kip_McSmithers let’s hope for a better 2nd half! Surely someone can hit some outside shots??
-
Guys seem slow to rotate, especially when BG’s on the floor. I’m singing “Oh say can you see SVI” for the 2nd half.
-
Not sure why Svii hasn’t sniffed any pt yet
-
What was the call on our end?
-
@Kip_McSmithers 3 sec, yell louder!!!
-
@Kip_McSmithers wondering the same
-
I booed. Didn’t know why though
-
Svii was caught watching a R rated movie I guess…
-
@Kip_McSmithers he got us a few xtra possessions! Got to make our throws! You gotta bring the crowd!!
-
@HighEliteMajor It appears KU is doing just as you mentioned. Flashing across the lane, sliding, cutting, screening. More movement over all. At least it seems so to my untrained eye.
I LOVE TRAYLOR GOING COAST TO COAST! That was BAD@$$!!
-
@Kip_McSmithers you did your part!!! Fun game! Figuring how to score against length. And Mason!!! Wow! How was the crowd w/out kids there?
-
Best second half of the year, started by Jamari, then Wayne slapping the ball before it went out of bounds then ending with bulldog making two!
-
@Kip_McSmithers when in doubt, you gotta boo! Weird refs, have you seen them before?
-
@wrwlumpy fun game!
-
Fun game & Good win for our boys! Rock Chalk!
Major effort points to basically our whole starting 5… Anyone find it odd that CS played 7 guys, major minutes tonight?
-
Very few students so we had great seats. I did my part to fill in though. I can heckle with the best of them
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Mason was awesome tonight. Loved the Taylor coast to coast.
-
@Lulufulu mainly 6 guys. I still think Svi, BG get some chances, Lucas w/bigger not so athletic team.
-
@Lulufulu Six guys played MAJOR minutes … err unless you included Greene in your number with 8 minutes !!
-
@Kip_McSmithers there was selfs Mari playing the point!
-
I was shocked to see only three bigs pick up minutes at all. LL and HM weren’t good match ups for this semi tall and very athletic post players. SM and BG must be dragging arse in practice
-
I had never seen those refs before. Anyone know their conference affiliation? Answered my own question. Woman’s haircut is MWC Pac12 guy. The other two are Big12 and MVC? I recall the bald one. Not the other though.
-
@Kip_McSmithers could there be a worse compliment than being described as the guy w/woman’s haircut? Did I get compliment right Paris?
-
Changing the subject, check out the full wolf moon, pretty cool!
-
More often than not, Vegas gets it right, after all, these are the guys who put their money where their mouths are.
