Wichita State at Creighton- Winner Take All Game Thread

HCGM won't quit playing DWill this half. He's shown that over his tenure here.

I've learned that jump-stops are illegal... oh and DWill refuses to pass the ball to anyone who is open.

I think it's legal as long as you take the shot right after the stop.

There was a shade of sarcasm in that post by @Anthroshock:

They might have blown their load with that half. 68% from the field, 77% from the FT line. Let Dougie get his average in the half.

We HAVE to step up the defense and get them below near 70% shooting. When they go cold, we need to make a run.

I would normally agree, but they weren't shooting out of their mind like UE was. They converted about 7 buckets inside of 4 feet.

We need a post player to grow some damn balls on defense.

McD and GE are 9/9. They won't continue that.

Glad I elected to drink vodka today instead of beer. I have a feeling Ima need the extra proof to make it thru this game without a grabber...

Biggest reason we miss Baker: Williams took his minutes. He just takes too many bad shots instead of focusing on defense and transition points.

Down 5. Ill take it. Could have been worse as cold as we were.

[RoyalShock]

CU can't play better than they did in the 1st half. And they are only up by 5. We've been a 2nd-half team all year when in this type of situation. I'm not worried . . . yet.

Our box score looks good except for 2-10 from 3pt range. Dougie was on fire and I doubt he cools off. We just have to attack on BOTH ends of the court, and we can pull this one out. It will go down to thee wire...

GO SHOX!!!

What's frustrating is after 4 years he doesn't know his own strengths and weaknesses.

I don't know why we don't attack SoW when we're on offense more. When he's guarding Hall, have the Beast post, not set screens for bad shooters.

Somebody has to step up offensively other than Carl - he is a known quantitiy.
Malcolm
Cleanthony
Fred
Nick
...and yes
even Jake! He has hit a couple; now would be the time to end his slump.

[GoShockers89]

I have a feeling our Rule of 65 is gonna kick in again.

Get there and we win. Fail and we lose.

I am glad DWill is a senior. Not sure I can take watching him to much longer. Who would coach go with or do you accept the good and bad giving him minutes?
