Wichita State at Tulane Pregame Discussion 1-29-22

[Dan]

Tulane will be keying in on Ricky, he's not a secret weapon this week. We need Dex or someone else to step up. Maybe Ricky's outburst will loosen up the defense on Tyson.

And that's all you need. Shox gonna get some PAYBACK BAY BAY!!!

I know that is right "Kung Wu The Great" with the fancy dancy autographed basketball. Sweeping the Shocks has been compared to pulling hens teeth on a hot tin roof in the Mojave desert after the cows come home expecting eggs in their beer.

But will Tyson try the impossible NBA highlight shots when he’s open?

I don't even know what this means, but I agree with it!

[ShockerFever]

We’ll find out how much the Tulane loss stung them and the coaching staff. They should be pissed going into this one but that still might be asking too much.

It’s gonna take more than one game that one of our bench guys went off for 31 to hold on to a 5 point win to prove to me that we’ve turned in any corners.

Always thought it was cat on a "hot tin roof"...

Yes

I have NO problem with RC4, ETN, Kenny, Monzy, CP, even JP taking set, quality open shots if the opportunity is there. This group is normally good 3pt shooters. Tyson does have good range beyond the arc. His problem is taking guarded shots at or beyond the 3 pt line. That's not being open.

That's one of his problems. He also has a problem treating open shots like he's forcing shots against a triple team.

Shox open +1; 136.5 o/u

[60Shock]

Our Win streak continues as well as our confidence.

[Blackmag]

This game will be tight, a toss up. Last game we looked pretty good against a good team. Having MO and Dexter back against Tulane hopefully will be the difference….

Completely fair. I feel good going into this game but like you said, expecting a bench player to drop 30+ points is just not sustainable. Imagine if our “star” player didn’t force everything and our bigs would keep the ball moving?

That’s an easy fix. Start RCIV.

Yep. I would love to see it. I think that would juice him up as well, if he started.
