WSU vx. Evansville GAME THREAD

[forevershockerfan]

Evansville playing very well. The Shocks, outside of Malcolm only so-so. Shocks get nothing from Cleanthony.

All-in-all got to feel OK with only being down one at half.

Points off our 11 turnovers--15-- yes, with Early out most of the half and our hottest player MA getting his 2nd, not feeling like this all is not bad being down 1. It could have been much worse. We were at our best with penetration and hitting the open man. Soon, we will make some 3's but we need some easier shots like that as well.

Looking back over the posts, I see lots of people calling out plays, players, and bad decisions.

Early is sitting because he had 2 fouls. Not because he wasn't playing well.

Ron Baker walking around. Looks like he is getting worse, not better.

I dont know! The side tackle foul on EO would have been nice!

Everybody watching everywhere all saw that except 3 people.

well, he didn't do much while he was in either.

It is unacceptable for us to get out-scored in the paint by this team.

Early has his own issues...his lack of playing time does not excuse the players on the floor from their errors. They (mostly) are scholarship D1 players and are at WSU to play. Now. Everyone else is playing a 40 minute game...Cleanthony, you are only playing a 25 minute game...you need to be everywhere.

Has Colt Ryan always been this big of a flopper?

I think that is stating the obvious. The bottom line is we got nothing out of Cleanthony in the 1st half. Hopefully, that will change in the second half.
We need his production on the offensive end and on the boards.

Go Shocks!

Let's take a look at all the block/charge calls at the end of the game and see how they break.

Does ANYONE think this is going to end well? If you do, would you please tell me what we can hang our hat on the rest of the game?

12-24 from the field, - don't know if that's sustainable but we are shooting well so that's good.

Only down one with CE out with 2 fouls.

Bench is outplaying theres....hard to believe I know but true.

Out rebounding them 17-8.

Take care of the ball and play smart. We are almost too hyped up on offense. Slow the motors down a bit and see what's there. Stay away from the sideline. Play as a team...Go SHOCKS!

I honestly cannot recall.

[forevershockerfan]

Cut down the turnovers and we sould be fine from here. They do not turn the ball over much as a team so we must scratch and claw for everything we get.

[ShockerPrez]

Let's go Shox.

Outplay them like the better team you are.

Simple as that.

Get it done.

Is he actually walking? He has been on crutches.
