Wonder if Dg was late? Started 2nd half, not exactly a trouble maker!
-
LL w the dunk!!! He should start
-
@DCHawker I heard Duke lost? And WSU lost in ot. Saw cf hit 2 3’s. Didn’t see much.
-
Hmmm.
Perry is having his usually strong game against a cupcake.
And fortunately Composite 5 is steady at 17pts and 12 rebounds.
Composite 5 for All American!!!
Composite 5 is the one thing we can count on game in and game out.
Composite 5 is the center piece of the team–the hub around which everything revolves.
-
Have you ever been accused of hyperbole?
-
Jesse’s got us at 1.42 PPP
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Saw some of both games - overlapped. Utah tried hard to give it away at the end with a couple of bone-head plays, but held on. Basically a road game for WSU and SH is pretty good - wouldn’t have been a bad loss except they had too many already with FVV out. Frankamp looked okay.
-
Wayne is back in the unconcentration function.
Svi is getting a few points, but no reebs again.
Cheick is Cheick at 4 PFs. He gets the Tarrick Award for early season fouling.
-
That would be a good # to average in six madness games
-
Devonte trying to get back into the starting lineup, but that 4-7 FGAs with two TOs is not making the case definitively.
-
What happened to Hunter? Got a start but then got the cryo ice? Or did he get injured. I have tuned in late.
-
Looks like maybe Self told Frank to dial it back and work on dishing out the assists to get some of his mates sharpened up against the cupcake.
-
LL owns Montana!!!
-
Weird line-up for a minute there - Svi and BG as guards.
-
With 7:35 to go we are at 14 3ptas. Sounds about right for who we are. And it works as usual.
-
@DCHawker did he play much? Didn’t think he got in first half.
-
Great hustle Mari!
-
Its possible we could come in at 16 3ptas again. But I am thinking we may get to 18-20 to make sure the next good team…no, Hunter back to the basket!!!
-
Yes, 15 3ptas, do I hear 16?
-
Svi for 3!!!
-
To bad Vick is sick!
-
Jam Tray looks like the injury has healed a little.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Didn’t see all the first half - not sure how many minutes, but they weren’t quiet minutes - definitely had an impact.
-
Mickelson on the board, scoring inside. Now Traylor needs to score for everyone that’s played so far to contribute.
-
Svi showing some point guard feet there
-
HCBS needs to put the walk ons in
-
Perry proving he can go soft baseline even against a cupcake.
Come on designer, this was the kind of game Andrew Wiggins would have hung 40 in to improve his draft stock.
-
-
This is really a complete performance - while the Griz aren’t a great team, or even good, they’re not that bad. Lost by just 3 at Gonzaga.
-
60% FG 47% 3Pt 81% FT
But, haven’t been realy tested much.
-
Cheick runs like Wiggins did.
-
Now I’ve been having some fun here, but this game is evidence that Self really is working on the right thing for this team: the long wings–BG and Svi. He knows Devonte can play, so he used a cup cake to try to tune BG and Svi up. Smart move, Coach Self. Those two guys currently are the guys playing the furtherest from the edges of their envelopes, and so the once that could contribute the greatest incremental improvement, AND justify cutting Frankie’s, Wayne’s,. and Devonte’s minutes.
-
Svi with the Euro-move–hesitation crossover one on three
-
@jaybate-1.0 Be interesting to see what Graham’s issue was that led to not starting. Apparently there was something that will be addressed after the game.
-
Loved seeing Brannen trying to get Svi on track
-
Its amazing how often we shoot free throws well against crappy teams that don’t tax our legs and cardio. 15-18 so far today vs. the Montana Wildhats. (Warning: ancient Kurt Vonnegut allusion.)
-
@DCHawker I thought they were awful!
-
Hey, we are at 15 3ptas for the game!!!
Its who we are.
-
Well, we do lose the scrub game pretty badly…We didn’t score in the last 4 minutes. Oh well…
-
44 points in both halves.
-
-
Can’t say Cheick developed this game with 4 points and 4 PF’s.
-
Don’t get me wrong.
I can see up to 20 3ptas some games this season (as most prior seasons).
And if we are down 10 with ten to go, I can definitely feel 25 3ptas on our horizon, also (as most prior seasons).
But so far, Coach Self’s interesting public profession not withstanding, ummmm, well, there are now two straight bowls of pudding with 16 and now 15 3 ptas, respectively.
I increasingly blame it on Composite 5: 22/20 today.
-
@jaybate-1.0 when you run the floor like we did today, it’s to easy to score at the bucket. Some pretty assists today too. And… We broke the ugly Christmas sweater record!
-
@Bwag how many fouls did he end up w/?
-
@jaybate-1.0 Except, that really isn’t the composite 5 line - 2 of the 5 were in at the same time. Bragg was in for Ellis for a while.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Diallo fouled out in 10 minutes.
-
@tundrahok he reacts a split sec to late.
-
Their coach said we figured out to play what they gave us.
-
THAT’S OKAY IF THEY ARE IN AT THE SAME TIME. THAT JUST MEANS WE ARE GOING TO EVEN MORE OF AN INSIDE POWER GAME THAN WITH PERRY, OUR FORMER STRETCH 4 THAT IS NOW REALLY A STRETCH 3 PLAYING 4.
