Game 3- St. Mary's

[Let'sGoZips94]

JoJo with his second 3 (not sure he fully behind the line) plus the foul of the game. 4 point plays both times.

Whatever NIL we have in the coffers for basketball needs to be preserved for Sharron Young. He needs to stay all 4 years.

Tavari can't finish at the rim.

We can be pretty good if we can figure out how to shoot worth a damn consistently.

Seriously. Make some of these bunnies and grab a few boards, and we're up six instead of down 6. We're close

We just don't have the height to hang with St Mary's. Killing us on rebounding. If we weren't hitting a high 3 percentage we'd already be in big trouble.

Tavari can penetrate but he has missed 4 out of 5 floaters.  Nobody can finish at the rim and our center has no offensive skills.  Our offense looks really bad.  KJ has forced up some bad shots.

[Zippy87]

Rebounding is a major problem. 29-14. Okonkwo is the only one crashing the glass hard.

Wouldn't need to rebound as much if we would simply make our shots.

St. Mary's has more offensive rebounds than we have total rebounds.

St Mary's is playing very good defense. Gotta figure out a way to get to the hoop

Control what you can control.

Let Sharron run point the rest of the game.

[Zippy87]

Lucky to only be down 8. 

[1981 grad]

Has anyone noticed that we have not had any commercials.  I think I have died and gone to sports heaven.  

[Zippy87]

Tavari is shooting 6-26 (23%) so far this year. He's taken the 2nd most shots of anyone on the team through 2.5 games.

Definitely a cold start.

[Let'sGoZips94]

Genius play to start the 2nd half. Saxen with 3 fouls for SMC.

[Zippy87]

Going from having Enrique Freeman to having basically nobody with inside scoring ability on the roster is a bit of a culture shock. If our outside shots aren't falling, this offense will get ugly at times over the course of the season. I worry about interior defense and rebounding outside of Okonkwo, too.

[Let'sGoZips94]

Enrique appreciation post. 

 

No matter the size discrepancy, he always produced. 

[zippy5]

Can't we just go to the rec and find another one?

[Captain Kangaroo]

Whatever the opposite of a roll is, we’re on it.

 

A schnide?

[Captain Kangaroo]

Man are we getting smoked on the boards.

[Zippy87]

39-18 on rebounds, 36-6 points in the paint.

 

Yikes.
