Good thing is we have the half to figure out how to attack that zone. Get on the elbow, find those soft spots and attack that ****.

Was TJ the genius behind Fred?

Good point. But not a great excuse!

Eh. Not an “excuse” per se. Zone is a ***** if you don’t see it much. Only Conditt, Jackson and Grill have played with each other before, and while that’s true, it’s also a stretch.

This will be another good test for TJ and this team to see if they can adjust on the fly.

Ok I switched to chrome and it seems better.

I don’t think so, but I’m ready to be wrong.

Maybe he was able to work out the first time coach kinks at SD and LV. I doubt he was this good right away. Like playing a QB too early and ruining their confidence.

All for a reason. TJ then would have been better than SP. TJ now is much more ready and prepared.

Brockington's mid-range game could be deadly in cracking their zone.

Love the defensive effort so far. Can we do that for 40 minutes?

Oklahoma State trailing by 8 at halftime against Oakland at home.

 

[trevn]

We had trouble adjusting to the zone. OSU got a few buckets at the end of the half but it wasn't because we got lazy. Defensive intensity has been constant for 3 halves.

The commercials are like 4K.

Not sure where TJ learned his defense from - McDermott? Or is it one of our assistant coaches as the brain? Awesome to see.

 

[BoxsterCy]

Maybe as good as we can expect considering the short bench and almost complete turnover and lack of depth but ordaining T.J. as the next Coach K might be a bit premature. Just sayin'.

Good defense, Nice not to see a foul a minute on each team like last game.

No, it was NBA level talent, work ethic, and effort from the roster.

We are obviously far from offensive juggernauts, but man we are playing hard. It’s so refreshing to see. I’m sure we’re going to lose our share of games this season, but we aren’t going to go down without a fight.

Jokes on you I'm premature all the time.

Say what you will about Comcast, but ESPN+ through my Xfinity X1 box is freaking flawless. Looks like a broadcast channel.

 

[CycloneErik]

The 3s they took were good shots, though. I’m sure they’ll get back to driving. Will help to have Brockington back in there.

I suspect we're legitimately not a good shooting team, but shots this good are still gonna fall.

Good question. Oregon State has taken our best punch and they managed to come back late in the first half. It will take a monumental effort to win this game. I'm confident we'll leave it all out on the court this second half. I just hope it will be enough because they're playing hard enough to deserve it.
