Wichita State at Tulane Game Thread

It really is quite amazing what we have accomplished without the ability to shoot.

We are winning with one arm tied behind our back.

+1 Somebody posted earlier our points per shot (some stat like that) and we were either last or next to last in the league. It goes to the defensive effort and overall valuation of every possession that Coach Marshall beats into these teams. They find ways to exploit weaknesses and limit exposure to their own, best as their talent will allow.

It also feeds what I've said so often since Gregg took over in 2007. When we make just some shots (we don't have to shoot 50%+) this is a very difficult team to beat, no matter the opponent. The job Coach has done this season, in my opinion, is one of his best while at WSU. He's extracted a lot from this group and almost every player still around is playing at or near their peak when it matters most.

We should be driving and pounding it inside with our size instead of shooting 3s. SHJ has had two easy drives

[ShockerFever]

We look flat. Settling for too many outside shots.

What else is new?

[Aargh]

This game has a start that could lead to an ugly game.

[ShockerPrez]

All these bricks can be recylced to reinforce thd New Orleans levies

[AndShock]

Maybe if Tulane didn’t flop so much they’d have won a conference game by now.

[ShockerFever]

Low IQ.

[Blackmag]

SHJ why?

[Blackmag]

Like Burtons start

[Aargh]

Midtgaard playing D on the perimeter on a 3-point shooter? That's probably something fairly new for him.

[ShockerFever]

Pretty uninspiring.

[Maizerunner08]

Shot selection, like in many games, is having me scratch my head. We are playing down to Tulane.

[Blackmag]

I quest we shouldn’t expect much atmosphere from a 4 win team in mid-March

[ShockerPrez]

Damn, I may be using the wrong catheter

[Maizerunner08]

ES needs to pass that off. He hasn’t been good on the fast break.
