Yea, towards the end of the half we were just getting easily beaten off the dribble. We would rush out to the 3 point line to get in the shooter's face, and they would blow right by us for easy scores.
Offensively, we are taking really fast shots, and most are horrible and heavily contested. Gotta work the ball around and be more patient offensively.
I'm starting to think Dawg61 is right. Maybe we need to hire a shooting coach. Whoever is coaching our guys on their shooting right now, is not having much of an effect. We are a horrible shooting team. Not sure what the percentage ended up for the half, but with 3 minutes left we were under 30% from the field...like 28 or 29%. That's just gross.

I agree, Rick. They are pretty good, and they upset someone already this year...can't remember who it was. We will be fortunate to win today with the combination of how terrible we're playing, and them being a decent team that is wanting to prove something. Not the performance I was hoping for with Malik in the house. Not that it matters

Good point. In fact, Ray could promise him that he would let him take as many shots as possible each game from day 1. And I'm not joking at all.

I'm not certain but I think I just saw Ontario Harper by the concessions.. Too bad he used his share of eligibility.

Was hoping our team would have improved more since last year but I'm not feeling it.

Food for thought- When Wayne Brent was hired this year he dismissed all but three players from last years squad. So you could say he inherited a "dumpster fire". He already has a win at Air Force, and is playing us very well at the Hump.

Latest over on SPS is that Newman didn't make it in today per David Murray.

Nobles is killing Bloodman off the dribble. I mean he can take it to the hole uncontested whenever he wants.
That being said...we're up 47-46 with under 9 to play. Back to back unforced turnovers, a travel and a step out of bounds.

Ware is injured. Not sure how bad but he had to come out.

Sword just swatted Nobles' shit! Great play
-
53-53 with 3:22 to play. timeout

Walk like the King or walk like you don't care who the King is

Clutch defense and score by sword, free throw by Thomas...:56 left and we're up. Hope we can hang on
