Basketball LIVE GAME THREAD: Rutgers Hoops vs. Sacred Heart
- Thread starter Richie O
- Start date
This will come as the season progresses. The one thing I really like to see is better FT shooting.
You are only going to learn so much against a team like SHU.
You’re last point is still my concern for this team. You can’t play street ball in March and come out with wins.
This team is still elite defensively, but it needs to get better offensively to have a shot at contending for the top part of the Big Ten.
I think that’s an over reaction this soon against a very weak team. I think he means in good way but let’s see when we play better teams. He is looking to shoot more.
Don’t really see Pauls performance the same way.
I see much of the same. Which isn’t a bad thing per se.
Still can’t really defend perimeter. Coast to coast play had a 6 ft white kid in his hip who shouldn’t be on the floor. Great alley oop pass. Active hands on D.

I said it last year and got torn to shreds for it. With pike we have a high floor but low ceiling. We built a house on a hill but with 6 foot ceilings.
I hope it’s only an ankle sprain but it seems worse the way he was walking. If I hear MRI, that gets me way nervous.
Geo's ankle is fine. Relax. So far his 4th year game looks the same.
He likely wont even be needed as much next 7 days.

Only listening to audio.. but it sounded like we were too unselfish early on.. and that the transition game is really our game and we should be pushing that. Simply put, if we are the better team.. we want as many possessions and shots as possible.. take the first good shot. UNLESS this is really just a practice and we want to work on half-court offense for those times when we will need it.
How many dunks? Feels like 8 dunks and 8 layups of 18 buckets.
We were on the line for 3 3 point shots. How in the world does that happen?

I am trying to draw any conclusions from this. Bad opponent playing a bunch of zone.
players playing bad don’t worry me. Not getting too excited about the good things (except Cliff)

Mich St is going to be worse early in then they will be end of year but I’m not impressed by them and all and think we match up very well.
Bac...the season would have sold out on season tickets ...
now, we can argue how many no shows ...but I think 700”-7200 would have come through the turnstiles

Yes, it's true they usually get off to a slow start to begin the year and then come on strong at the end of the year. But my point is, too many here are being waaaaaaaaaaay over concerned over the first game. As I write this we're up 17 starting the second half.
Just hoping this is precautionary. Right now, we don't really need him over the next several games. He needs to heal and get back in ready shape against Sad Excuse.
I agree. He’s going to have a ton of opportunities this year with teams keying on Young, Baker and Harper.
If his shooting percentage improved greatly and Geo's injury is an issue.. you are probably right. His shooting percentage was crap last year.. and that speaks to shot selection. We'll soon see how he has improved.
