skip-zip Posted February 25, 2017 Report Posted February 25, 2017 (edited) Shouldn't be hard to stop offensive rebounds. You're in a better position to block out on almost every play. It's all about concentration and discipline. 7 friggin offensive rebounds for Buffalo so far. Edited February 25, 2017 by skip-zip Quote

akronzips71 Posted February 25, 2017 Report Posted February 25, 2017 TDM is not ready to play in D1. Two horrible 3 point misses followed by a turnover. Horrible. Quote
1981 grad Posted February 25, 2017 Report Posted February 25, 2017 Our bench players looked bad when they were in there. Dunn Martin missed 2 three pointers, Utomi didn't draw iron on his 3 and then fouls a 3 point shot on the other end. Josh has not taken a shot and Poke got blocked. We need the bench to step up. Stop forcing the 3! Quote

Did you watch the last game? That is an ignorant statement. He averages more assists in 10 minutes than Noah does in 30. Quote
skip-zip Posted February 25, 2017 Report Posted February 25, 2017 Am I the only one that's noticed Josh driving more? He's shown some skills I didn't know he had after spending 20 games hanging out at the 3-point line on every possession. 1 Quote

I think he has realized that every time he touches the ball, defenders sprint full speed to the 3-line. A drive or two should give him some better shots down the line. Quote
1981 grad Posted February 25, 2017 Report Posted February 25, 2017 Great play by Josh and then he screws up a 3 on 1. Bounce pass, Bounce pass, Bounce pass! Quote

K92 Posted February 25, 2017 Report Posted February 25, 2017 Maybe Noah is distracted by the Buffalo Dance Team. Quote

Looks like he's picking up where he left off for the most part Quote
zippy5 Posted February 25, 2017 Report Posted February 25, 2017 While we could be up double digits if we hit the boards, that was a nice response to the Bowling Green massacre Quote
skip-zip Posted February 25, 2017 Report Posted February 25, 2017 Coach Oates stalked the officials the entire half, and stares them down going to the locker room, yet Buffalo has shot over DOUBLE the amount of free throws as the Zips. Quote
Zipgrad01 Posted February 25, 2017 Report Posted February 25, 2017 If we even remotely tried to get offensive boards we would be up 15 at the half. Buffalo is athletic, but they suck. Quote
kreed5120 Posted February 25, 2017 Report Posted February 25, 2017 Buffalo has 24 rebounds to our 12... Quote
1981 grad Posted February 25, 2017 Report Posted February 25, 2017 Both Noah and Josh are driving more. I am sure that is something they are working on. I saw Noah hit the deck for the first time this season. These guys need to penetrate if they are going to be guarded closely at the 3 line. Noah has missed several easy baskets driving to the basket the last 3 games but at least he is making the effort. I do not like seeing Josh, Noah, Antino and Utomi in at the same time. Not one of them is a good rebounder and we are getting killed on the boards. We are slow to the ball on the offensive rebounds. Quote
zipsrule Posted February 25, 2017 Report Posted February 25, 2017 It is amazing how bad Buffalo is shooting. Those bad shots are leading to offensive rebounds. Quote

Thats a good point. While we are rebounding like dog poo, there have been some long rebounds off the bad misses Quote

The airball that fell right into someone's hands for an easy basket was ridiculous. But, we aren't blocking out. That's all about focus. That can be corrected easily. Quote
skip-zip Posted February 25, 2017 Report Posted February 25, 2017 Too many minutes for a few of our guys. That "2nd Unit" of Poke, Tavian and Utomi sucked, and came back out way too fast. That certainly wasn't how we wanted that to play out. Quote
