Wichita State vs VCU Game Thread

[Dan]

Brick Stevenson still can’t shoot

[Shoxfan11]

The team should just start practicing in the Heskett Center so Eric can practice making threes at places other than Koch Arena

[shoxlax]

Ricky’s problem is that when things go bad for him, he doesn’t reset. He will take his last play with him on to the next play and the next play.

[pinstripers]

Losing Echinique was the death blow. Torres is going to learn a lot from this game.

What?

[Dan]

Like learn that he’s in way over his head?

[SHOXAAC]

Redskins up on the Titans 10-9

Good Hallmark Christmas movie on 85.

[Singeril]

Their young guys wanted this more than our young guys.

[ShockerFever]

15 points in a half hurts.

[ShoxRoxMySox]

Embarrassing

[pinstripers]

Noticeable that Poo and Brown never re-entered the game

[ShockCrazy]

I'm now excited for this board to overreact to a really young team who played a bad second half in their first true road game. Should be fun.

[ShockCrazy]

I am watching the same game. I watched a team battle through an adverse first half, lose by far our best big man and probably second best player halfway through the first half. Then I saw that team really struggle to make shots in the second half, some was bad offense and some was the fact that Samajae sat too long. I'm not big on overreacting when we can't make jumpers and therefore the offense deteriorates because there is no space.

[pie n eye]

Hmm. So, you dont think losing Echinique had any affect on the second half performance?

[ShoxRoxMySox]

I’m sure etch going out had a huge impact as two shockers stared at a loose ball.

[ShockerFever]

Hahaha, Mitgard scored on you VCU.

[shoxlax]

Burton top game as a Shocker. Had the look of someone that actually gives a **** about getting embarrassed.

[ShoxRoxMySox]

+1

[Shoxfan11]

Well, AM just made a layup, which should change all of our thoughts on this performance

[shoxlax]

Sounds like he will get more chances if Jamie is injured as bad as it sounds

[TheShocktocles]

Not me. That guy needs to be playing in Div 2 basketball. He is so slow.

[proshox]

AM needs to play. Amazing how much “faster” bigs get with experience

[wusphlash]

Look at it this way, we might win the PAC 12.

[N Crestway]

WSU might win the MVC.

[Aargh]

I doubt it. They play defense in that league.

[ShockerFever]

KU sucks.

[Dan]

It’s not that we’re just young, we have guys on this team that are supposed to be good at certain things and they are unable to do those things in a real game. I honestly would not care if we recruited another couple players if we can find some guys that are well rounded basketball players.

[TheShocktocles]

We need guys that can shoot and score. Totally agree with you. We got guys that are suppose to be shooters and they shoot BRICKS. ES is the main one.

And I just waited for someone to start complaining about the guys writing on this board. It didn’t take long. Nobody has over reacted. Good observations throughout the game.

[pie n eye]

There were enough good observations and overreactions to please everyone.
