1st Half
BC doubling the post early, but our ball movement was on point early.
Like us trying to get out and run.
Attacked the basket nice early. Gill looked very active first few minutes.
Defense really moved well to start the game. BC hit the first 3 that was covered.
No issues with IW taking wide open jumpers. That is his weapon and opens up things for others by doing so.
Devin Hall is giving this team another look. Love him pushing tempo which allows LP to play more off the ball.
MB looking to score more and quicker which leads to better shots imo. We don't do well getting shots with the shot clock running down unless the ball is inside.
TB needs to learn that subbing some guys in will cost us points. Yes we will win this game I am sure, but we can't afford to lose offense at times.
Uncle Malcolm is playing with an edge tonight.
Gill needs to learn you can't do anything until you catch the ball. Do that in the second half and he might finish the game with 20-10.
Halftime thoughts-
This game was never in doubt. We didn't hit good shots, BC hit some very lucky shots. Just need to keep moving the ball like we had in the first half and play defense with the same intensity. Should be a 12-17 point win if Gill and Tobey use our size advantage. TB can't get too cute with subs until game is for sure over.
2nd half
I know teams hit 3's, but it drives me crazy we let teams get easy looks up double digits. Just run them off the line or are teams just taking out of this world 3's?
Gill starting to go to work early in 2nd half. BC doesn't have the bodies to stop it.
Hall has a nice jumper and it seems improved from last year? More lift on jumper.
BC had no answer for our inside game. I still say for us to get past the 16, the inside game plus hitting open jumpers is the ticket, but you can say that about any team.
Happy to see everyone cheer so hard for Nolte after hitting that jumper. If the guy can just hit 1 or 2 a game.
We started toying with them in the second half. Our backdoor cuts were almost too easy
JR will be special by Year 3, love how big he is on the block.
Game thoughts-
Bad shooting will come back to get us, but the offensive flow was good.
IW and DH really keep growing.
Malcolm was on fire. We will need him to carry this club on his back most nights and that is ok.
TB was toying with lineups a little much early, but BC really isn't good so it didn't matter.
Great Nolte was able to hit a jumper, but we need one or two a game from him as the season goes on.
Our next 5 games are no joke. That Pitt game with be an old school NBA defense type of ball game. First team to 50.
Not worried about Tech, but coming out of Pitt alive will be a tough game. Defense much improved tonight.
18-4 7-3 looks better than it did with a minute to go in that Wake game
