WSU @ Drake Game Thread

The hit looked accidental to me but maybe I saw a bad angle

From the Drake board --

Kelly killed casey today ��, McMurray was a beast, reed was a ghost but credit to the shocker D for that, billy can't shoot for **** right now, mcglynn is tough!!! Jacob has no hands, it's a turnover if you pass to him, ore struggled with shot selection, good minutes from Graham, Thomas battles but bad shot selection, not much of CJ tonight, AJ with a nice elbow.

AJ is the guy who hit Nurger.

[AndShock]

I can buy the elbow being accidental. After the elbow the guy pushed his arm into Nurger's face which was definitely intentional.

I suppose it COULD have just been a reflex similar to sticking out your arms to break a fall, but it certainly looked bad. I'm willing to wait and see what Marshall, Nurger, and Sully have to say about it.

[Eric]

No one would've faulted Nurger if he'd have knocked his teeth out.

Let's not lose sight of what MM has been able to do, even without being able to put the ball in the basket. Proving again that he is a true all around team player.

Incredible job on the boards.

3G was complementary of Daishon's play tonight. Hopefully, that is a start.

Maybe a bit of ego stroking, but he was a lil better

[Blackmag]

Yea I think 3G is just trying to give Smith some confidence anyway he can. Even if it's the little things. He had a good drive and played good D, took care of the ball. It's a start and we need him for the stretch. Hopefully sooner than later.....

You could see he turned into him, then carried through the contact.

Clearly, he wasn't reaching out to cushion the blow.

Great effort Rashard, you've had some ups and downs in your career but hung in there. You're great attitude shines through when interviewed.

CF, criss-cross 2 pointers work well too, way to mix it up, great defensive effort this year too.

MM, save the triple pump fade away for pickup games, don't force it, great effort on the glass.

Daishon, keep your head up, like my good friend Annie used to say "The sun will come out, tomorrow, bet your bottom dollar" .... etc, etc.

STL should be interesting, you should think about attending.

Rutter Jr., I hope you contract syphillis in an unwanted manner

We'll win this. Drake is going to be Drake eventually.

And that's a huge problem. We're winning these games because the opponents really suck and eventually break down to their sucky selves. It's not about how we force our will on the other team and beat them. I swear we would finish 13th in the Big 12.

Except we won that last 2 games because we forced our will on them when we needed to.

[1972Shocker]

I though Paul Miller was pretty solid tonight. Doesn't say a lot but made his points short and sweet and let Shane move on.

[SHOCKvalue]

What time in the game was the elbow?

I assume the game is archived on ESPN3, and I'd like to have a look-see.

You've turned into a mess of a poster in your old age.
