Entertaining game. The Aces didn't play very well and definitely didn't get any calls. Looking forward to the rematch in Evansville.

They got lots of calls in the last 5 min.

True - Never blame the refs for a loss. The Aces have no one to blame but themselves. 14 - 21 from the free throw line won't cut it. Those 7 misses were big.

Always enjoy the atmosphere in Wichita.

Atmosphere in Evansville should be special - can't wait.

A Win is a Win! Needed to hang tough and they did

May have been a little nerve-racking at the end, but that was a very fun game to watch. Crowd was great the whole time.

There was a crappy call or three at the end, but overall the game was even regarding bad calls. Unfortunately ours came at stress time.

That will give us all we want in Eville, if Fred has another off night.

I'm more worried about Ron, he hasn't looked right for a few games.

So much for the Anton disappears against big/good competition rap. 17/7 in far fewer minutes than Big E and only 1 foul. And key in helping hold Mock under 10.

Yes, but we can play through that. We implode, however, when Fred is off.

Mr Grady was awesome tonight. Exactly the type of performance we were hoping to see preseason. Keep it up Grady!

The ball to Evansville was the correct call. EM never touched the ball. He got all Fred.

Yes, he pulverized him and that would have been Big E.'s obvious 5th foul. Instead, they reward them with the ball too. Wow!!!!!!!

Speaking of a big E., Evan made the big corner shot and so did Brown.

Yes, his old school offense was good and he played solid on D. versus Mock too. Grady's best game as a Shocker IMO!!!

[Rosewood]

That bad?

This is bullshit. Every year with these kids.

If you get a ticket, show up to the rucking game. It is past time to oversell student tickets.

Thank goodness "off" Fred scores 16 with 9 assists. If he gets any more off track he will end up getting Melo Trimble praise from the national media.

Wow - great win against a really tough team.

Aces - That is the biggest Evansville team I can remember, and they are skilled like usual. That is a VERY good team and great win for the Shocks.

Markis - 6'8" and guarding an excellent perimeter player. He is going to be special, but he's good now.

Grady - He showed the variety of ways he can score tonight. He looks to be completely back and that is a great sign.

Fred - Bouncy and wrecking havoc on D; the leg looks to be healed.

We need some tests like this during conference play against really complete teams and thankful for the win.

What I like about MM, Grady, and CF is any of them could start or finish a game and it won't hurt us one little bit. That is the mark of a great team that has bench players that can spark us. Our bench tonight was a huge difference for us.

What if Shamet can recover and play healthy and full speed this Season? I'm not counting on it, but if so, WOW!!!!!!!
