Did Royce not start tonight? ESPN stats has him coming off the bench.

This mediacom announcer looks a lot like Paul Rhoads... it's kind of freaking me out.

Alas, I'm not able to watch this one. Tracking it online. Seemed like a solid final 10 minutes. Seems like Gibson & McGee made some noise during part of that.

Stats show the team is 12/13 from the line. Assists-turnovers 3-1 (12-4). Rebs even.

Seeing some comments here again about iffy defense. Other observations?

Royce started...not his best game so far.

Even after a decent 1st half, this team worries me. We don't play defense (almost at all), we don't rebound, and I am not sold on the offense. I don't get why Royce always looks like he'd rather be studying or doing about ANYTHING else than playing B-ball. I really don't think we're going to as good as we thought we'd be.....:swoon:

 

[MaccloNe]

McGee needs to start. Nice to Allen get it going.

 

[Rabbuk]

royce has a kid already, so no worries on saving his nuts for future reproducing.

Definitely iffy defense. NoCol has hit some tough shots, but we've not guarded the rim well and haven't boxed out well. When McGee, Palo, Gibson, and Babb are in, we play pretty well defensively.

Great FT shooting, great job knocking down open looks, and a big bonus is that Chris Allen is starting to look like the guy we think he can be out there.

ESPN's box scores are right about 50% of the time with starters/reserves. He started. I wouldn't pay too much attention to that.

wow...sad that UNC is bragging about their diving program at halftime...why not talk about the game???

I guess it should like he should be on the bench. Wish I was in Ames.

It's Paul Doerrfeld...he played for us in the late 80s and like 1990.

Will somebody get Heft a Coke?!?!

Exactly, he's a chubby Rhoads.

Thanks for update. Not easy to tell without seeing it.

 

[kas4cy]

Seriously? Box out, kids.

 

[marothisu]

[Covenant Clone]

We are really not very good defensively.
