RoyalBlu Posted November 9 Report Share Posted November 9 Obvious takeaway ... even vs. lesser opponent ... this team has mad depth. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1981 grad Posted November 9 Report Share Posted November 9 I enjoyed watching this game. The battling bishops were a very well coached team and shot the ball well from three. They are 2 divisions below the Zips and none of these guys are as athletic as the Zips but they played very hard and boxed out well keeping the rebounding edge very close. KJ really stood out on defense and had at least 4 steals and missed a dunk and the ball went up into the rafters. Okonkwo is a great rebounder but really surprised at his limited offense. This guy played at West Virginia and North Carolina and reminds me of Freeman in his 2nd year offensively. Hardman has a quick shot and seems to be a 3 point specialist. He shot 5 of 10 from 3 point land. TJ had a tough shooting night and missed his first 4 or 5 shots and he hit 2 threes in succession in the 2nd half. I think this team has potential. We will not be getting a great deal of inside points from our center like last year so hitting the outside shot will probably be key. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one thing I have learned about Groce's teams is that defense, physical play and toughness gets you on the floor. Sharron looks great offensively but he looks like a frosh on a team that is mainly junior and seniors. The physical play of division one basketball is something that may keep him from being a starter this early in his career. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear you ... but the object of the game is put the ball through the hoop!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't look much different defensively to me than Tavari but is clearly superior on the offensive end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LZIp Posted November 9 Report Share Posted November 9 Still trying to figure out why didn’t Harris play and why Guthrie is leaving? Anyone have some insight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the postgame Groce indicated that Harris was day by day and not sure if he would play on Tuesday so it must be an injury or illness. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
