Game thread

relatively speaking, I guess, lol - I also tuned in when we were down 10-2 and thought our D has been pretty good since then - certainly way better than the O.
The defense looked good when we went small and mixed in some traps. Otherwise, we look too slow.
 
Can't penetrate the zone, can't make the outside shots. Against a pretty bad team.
 
Thank goodness for Mike... instant offense...Souf is struggling and then takes a wild shot...Pike must be chewing them out now at half

He was only one that made bad plays....No one else has a turnover, no one else has a bad miss. To me, it looked like there was increased ball movement when he got in the game...resulted in some open looks.

We are playing bad because of bad shooting...Sanders 4 pts, Freeman 3 points.
 
Stop it. When he gets the ball he can pass it sometimes to our team. Keeps the ball moving which is huge for an offense.

I honestly can't tell if this is a joke or not. But he has no jump shot, threw up a wild one when he penetrated, and his turnover led to a CCSU three. He's basically confirming our worst fears based on his JUCO stats, film, and lack of other offers.

Geo better find his touch soon or this is going to be a long year. I like his court awareness but at some point you need to score. Also, dissspointed that Thiam looks no better than last year from outside.

Corey is Corey. Hot and cold

We miss Gettys. He was a major factor in no WTF games last year. We may drop a few this year.

Really I can catch the ball eight feet outside the top of the key and pass it the other side.

Sure...What we need is a stagnant offense...I wanna see less ball movement. That's always good for an offense.

And you wonder why I can you Stupid !! You don't understand why Pikiell said that one of two biggest problems last year was the Lack of Ball Movement.

I have never, in my entire life seen someone who claims to know Basketball downplay the importance of ball movement in offensive basketball...what's next, are you going to say player movement on the court is a waste of time?

Need a 15-0, 19-2 type run here.

*ok 15-3, 19-5 works too!
 
All the talk about this team being so much better was preseason nonsense. All the players are who we thought they were. It's going to be a struggle to match last year's record. Reinforcements can't get here fast enough

If I want to hear whining I can stay home. Which I did. Give a young team some time to gel .
Please?

CCSU is rated as the 340th (of 351) best team in the nation. Even if that's wrong and they're 300th, no excuse for this performance. We have three seniors, by the way, so it's not exactly a young team.
 
Great. We were up 8 and now our shitty shooting has allowed them to go on a 10-0 run.
 
Nothing is “wrong” with him. Geo baker isn’t ready to play 25 minutes at this level. A lot of folks mis-anointed him savior like.

I didnt think he was Jeff Greer.
 
After going up 8 we haven't scored in 5+ minutes - Freeman and Baker have been bad today. And Pikiell takes a charge, lol...
