Montana Chat
-
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.
-
“I’m progressing a lot and loving the process.” - Carlton Bragg on putting on size and growing into a mature ball player #kupostgame
-
Had to work, so watched most of the replay. So, our new number 5 is…Carlton Bragg!!! He fits in better than peas and carrotts, i tell ya.
-
@jaybate-1.0 We’ve been begging for 3 years for Perry to play the 3.
-
Been driving all day, I missed a bunch of 3’s maybe???
-
@Bwag Thanks for stepping up and getting the chat started. Some of us regulars were displaced today.
-
@Bwag We’ve been wanting to move to Table Rock all this year but house to sell, 2 deaths in immediate family, Yada Yada, still here about 10 miles outside the Overland Park city limits. Maybe we can get there in 2016. I ain’t gettin any younger so the clock is tickin…
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Grrr, rubs me when people refer to our bench as “scrubs”. Those kids work as hard or harder than the starters to get this team to where it is. They may not have the talent but they got a wagon load of “want-to” to bust their butts day in and day out knowing the only minutes they get are at the end of blowout games. And you can see the appreciation from the starters when one of the bench guys makes a bucket. I think @approxinfinity should do something so when somebody uses “scrubs” it should automatically change to “bench”.

This post is deleted!

Self said Devonte had a sleep problem and gives him credit for not saying his alarm clock broke. He also said, Devonte is and will be our starting point guard. Coach was almost laughing as he told the story.
-
@globaljaybird don’t say that!!
-
@wrwlumpy don’t you think one of his teammates would have woke him up, unless he wasn’t there?
-
@globaljaybird sounds like a bad go, but good luck ahead!
