Basketball game thread vs FAMU

[Dawg61]

Ado is a difference maker. He makes Holman better just being on the court. Love the starting lineup of Nick, Lamar, Q, Holman, Ado.

[Dawg61]

15-8 MSU, was 15-2

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

Think there's more people on the floor than in the stands

[preachermatt83]

I'm late starting to watch. Did Adu get any blocks, rbs, or points the first few mins?

Yup nice dunk for his first MSU points and another bucket later. He has nice hands and made some nice passes back out. Holman is the one that's benefiting the most with Ado on the court. Ado just had a monster slam. It did look like Shaq a little haha

[MCsMGs]

I'll be going through withdrawal this afternoon as I won't be able to be there..got a hangin' to go to. Gonna have to rely on y'all and espn app on my phone to keep up.

[Dawg61]

17-10 MSU 8:06 we are shooting like shit, should be 30-10 rn

Grand Canyon beat this team by 17. I?m not impressed so far. Step it up

[HoopsDawg]

Ado looking even better than I hoped. Peters will get his shot going eventually. Where is Wright?

[msstate7]

We are being out rebounded by 12

We looked great when we got it to 15-2, now have gone ice cold

[msstate7]

We can?t beat their zone. They pounding us on the boards

[msstate7]

WE have 7 TOs, 5 assists

[Dawg61]

Feazell looks a lot like Keglar physically

[PMDawg]

Looking like another long season. Shooting 30% at home vs crap, and getting destroyed on the boards by one guy. Geez.

Cannot disagree. This is terrible

[MarketingBully]

We subbed out our starting five and that was the result. Just look bad because Howland is really going with a wild stupid sub pattern.

If we have to be careful who we sub vs this team, it does not matter bc we suck. I really hope we just not playing anywhere in the sAme universe as our potential

[Dawg61]

Is Wright hurt? Sick? Sleeping?

[MarketingBully]

The problem with this team is that they shoot way too many threes and don’t understand when they aren’t making them drive to the basket. If they just drive to the basket, we would be fine.

[msstate7]

Atta boy, carter

[Dawg61]

I think 8 days off is partly to blame for the rust. Howland really scheduled an awful OOC

[MarketingBully]

It’s called Q and Peters sucking ball sacks. They have to lead this team. If they play like shit, we won’t play well. Wtf is wrong with Peters shot? It wouldn’t surprise me if he’s shooting 15% on the year from the floor.

[msstate7]

Could be. Schedule is awful and it will make it really hard to know how good we are

[MarketingBully]

That starting five though is legit. Ado is a difference maker in the paint. Everything starts with our guards though. Ado has 6 points 3 boards 2 blocks in the first half. Not bad for his debut.

[msstate7]

Nick is good

[msstate7]

Much better this half

[MCsMGs]

No word yet on Eli? He's been playing better than Q IMO.

[Dawg61]

Still no Wright? I see him on the bench, he's in his uniform

[msstate7]

Gotta be disciplinary

[msstate7]

Before it is said and done, datcher may be the best big man on this roster

[MaroonFlounder]

Can’t buy a 3-point bucket

[Dawg61]

Can Adidas provide Herard with some hands

[msstate7]

Herard should not be dribbling. Catch and shoot or catch and pass

[Dawg61]

Herard should not be dribbling. Catch and shoot or catch and pass

He needs to watch 4 hours of basketball every night. Seems really confused all the time.

[MaroonFlounder]

Who are these announcers?

Weatherspoon. Not WITHER spoon.

You don't think much do you? We haven't played in a week, dude. Of course we're going to be rusty but we are not terrible, we do not suck. I promise every game thread you say we suck. It doesn't matter the sport. We're up 27 now, we definitely suck don't we?

You right. We sec contenders.

[Dawg61]

It'll eventually be obvious to everyone that Lamar ain't going pro this year so whose the odd man out?

[BuckyIsAB****]

So how are we looking boys

[msstate7]

It'll eventually be obvious to everyone that Lamar ain't going pro this year so whose the odd man out?

Do you think before you post? He hasn?t played in a week, dude. He is clearly the best player in the country lol

[msstate7]

So how are we looking boys

Look much better in 2nd half. Hard to judge how good we are vs total crap teams though

Who is the first decent team we play and when

[msstate7]

Who is the first decent team we play and when

7 games from now at Cincinnati

[HoopsDawg]

Who is the first decent team we play and when

Dec 3rd at home vs Dayton

[MarketingBully]

We have a ton of talent. I think the eight day layoff definitely hurt us. I’ll take a 79-48 win though after our first half start. Ado IMO is for real.

[Dawg61]

7 games from now at Cincinnati

They have scored 107, 102 and 97 in their 3-0 start. They are going to beat the shit outta us. Cincinnati is probably a top 5 team right now.

[msstate7]

Dec 3rd at home vs Dayton

They aren?t the same team imo. Espn FPI agrees with me... we have an 83% chance of winning according to them.

[msstate7]

That is not a bad thing. We need to face good competition

Liked ado.

[MCsMGs]

SFA may be a worthy competitor on 11-22.

Dayton should be decent too.

[msstate7]

SFA may be a worthy competitor on 11-22.

I hope so. Want us to be challenged and have to make plays to win close games

[Dawg61]

Who is the first decent team we play and when

Jacksonville St. is the first real game we have. They lost in the first round of the NCAA last year to Louisville and beat Richmond by 33 this year. Jacksonville State might be the best team in the OVC this year. They won the OVC tourney to make the NCAA's last year. We should not count that as an easy win. It won't be.

[chef dixon]

To me, who is going to step up and be our go to player? We lack an identity right now. Pleased with blowouts of inferior opponents but I don't know who I trust yet.

[Dawg61]

SFA may be a worthy competitor on 11-22.

Dayton should be decent too.

Stephen F. Austin was really good two years ago. They went 28-6 that year and lost barely to Notre Dame in the round of 32 by a last second shot but they lost their coach after that year so they aren't the same program. They are still going to be tough though. So yes, SFA, Jacksonville St., Dayton and Cincinnati are our toughest OOC games. We'll be lucky to go 2-2 in those 4 games. At Cincinnati is a definite loss.

[HoopsDawg]

Peters can get to the rim with ease, just got to get his shot going. Nick and Ado are big additions. Q is still the go-to guy. Holman and Datcher are giving good minutes.

This is going to be an outstanding defensive team especially if we start Ado and Holman together. It’s just a matter of Peters and Q’s shots falling. I think we will get there. Love the kids attitude though. Peters has the right attitude about everything. Ado does too. Lots of talent on this team. Just have to put it together. We started a great starting five. Just have to get our rotation down. This week should tell a lot.

[msstate7]

What?s the word on X? Anything said on wright?

[KOdawg1]

My thoughts:

-We have to rebound better. Can't get out-rebounded by FAMU
-Ado is forreal. Excited to see that dude.
-Herard still can't catch the freaking ball.
-Lil Spoon is fun to watch
-Peters is good but still really streaky. Need more consistency from him.

[Liverpooldawg]

Gotta be disciplinary

He got arrested for speeding last week. Yes, speeding.

[tcdog70]

Ado, looks to be a stud. Reckon Ben might know what he is talking about.Little Spoon is also a real talent.
