Winner is fun!

Thought we lost you, good to see you again. Everyone, this is Joerg.

Fantastic win for our guys. They're making me a believer! Wouldn't it be fun to grab another win in Houston?

Shocks shot the ball well: 26-50 FG (52.0%), 9-20 3PT (45.0%), 22-26 FT (84.6%)

I'm guessing that has to be a season best team shooting performance. And we needed every bit of it.

Ole Miss was: 28-66 FG (42.4%), 9-26 3PT (34.6%), 16-22 FT (72.7%)

The Shocks turned it over 15 times vs 9 for Ole Miss but points off of turnovers favored Ole Miss 29-14. Ole MIss also outscored the Shocks on 2nd chance points 20-10. That was a lot to overcome.

Good win, and great effort from the team. Going to enjoy every one of them this year.

Great to see the team coming from behind to win this one on the road.

TE is a leader just as we already knew. We probably have more than one leader, but TE is really good when things are good and also when adversity strikes.

ole Miss shot much better than they normally do too.

Surprising stat of the game: we won the rebounding battle by 2.

Ole Miss had 15 offensive rebounds to 9 for the Shocks but the Shocks only missed 24 field goal attempts while Ole MIss missed 38 field goal attemtps. So the Shocks rebounded 37.5% of their misses and Ole Miss rebounded 39.5% of their misses so not as bad as it seemed. Ole Miss just had a lot more opportunities. That said our 5's neeed to grab more rebounds than they are.

Winner is fun!

With AM gone, I thought you had left us.

[TheShocktocles]

I think those dumb plays come because we still have a young team and 9 new guys learning to play with each other. But I am so proud of how these guys fight and stay together. Go shocks.

Did Bilau suit up for the game?

AM is from Western Europe. I think Joerg is from Eastern Europe. (that is just based on syntax)

Team chemistry looks so much better than last season

Its hard not to get frustrated with our 5 "s not rebounding. Just grab the dam ball. Its not going to just bounce to you. Sigh!
