O

I don't think we are an 0-7 type of team but we wont shoot well from the 3 most nights i dont think.

You are correct.

 

[loyalsons4evertrue]

need to finish the half strong

 

[cyclo120]

Going to have to find a way to push the ball and score off our defense because shooting in the half court will be an issue all year.

 

[CyFanInChiLand]

oof that 3 wasn't pretty lol

Many of the threes haven't been pretty. Get the bad shots out of our system versus these bad teams and make em when it counts

 

[CYDJ]

We've already seen a ton of zone this year.

I feel like we are doing what we should agsinst the zone. Were making them move, just missing a lot of shots. They arent bad selection or forced.

 

[madguy30]

It's like they forget what they were doing when they get to the hoop, haha.

Need to slow down a bit.

 

[ChickenNuggetMan]

I know this team isn’t going to be an offensive juggernaut but wide open threes need to be made.

 

[loyalsons4evertrue]

I want to see us crash the boards more

This is the perfect example of how strong defense can keep you in a game, even when you're having a horrific shooting night.

 

[madguy30]

Holy **** was that an adjustment?

 

[helechopper]

Our shots have to start falling soon right? Can’t miss them all.

 

[Inthesystem]

Can’t watch, but 0-7 3s…are they getting good looks and just not falling?

Yes

 

[loyalsons4evertrue]

hmm missed that box out

 

[GTO]

Dumb foul by Conditt.

 

[madguy30]

hmm missed that box out

The fact that it stood out or was unusual is a good thing.

 

[loyalsons4evertrue]

okay that last rebound should've been ours...come on guys

 

[loyalsons4evertrue]

I mean we're getting open looks and can't complain about that...some nights your on and sometimes your not....still need to clean up our play and I'd like to see the post play get better

 

[Inthesystem]

I anticipate a lot of missed shots from both sides tonight. On Draft Kings I am making the following plays:

ISU -19
ISU team total under 80.5
ASU team total under 60.5
Game total under 141.5

If I had to make a prediction, I am thinking 72-50 in favor of the good guys.

Show me the money, clones!

Post aging well

Let's not underlay how bad Alabama State is. Kenpom has them at 339. For perspective, there are only 344 teams. This is literally a bottom 10 team in NCAA basketball. We need to score far more than we have.
