#25 Wichita State vs Missouri State Official Game Thread

I think it is pronounced Azburn Meetguard.

Asbjørn Midtgaard

The first name is pronounced more like Azbērn instead of Azburn.

KenPom has us #10 and offense #9 and defense 24

I've appreciated always having a good D but having the #9 O is a heck of a lot more fun to watch.

"I like going on the road, I like knowing everybody in the arena hates you."

This was emphatically validated today. That kind of leadership is contagious, exponentially, I'm hoping.

This goes clear back to Gene Smithson. He said he liked going to other teams arenas wearing black and sending their fans home disappointed. Gene was a bad man. Gregg is badder.

Congrats Shocks and to myself. There were very few of us that
accurately predicted one valley loss when the conference games
started. I not only predicted the one loss but to whom it would
be too. Okay, that is history now. Our offense is really clicking
now but our defense and rebounding were not that great today.
Were not playing angry today - it seemed like we were just playing
playing with them. We WILL win the tournament and I'm going to
say be seeded 7th. Think we will probably make the final 32 and
then who knows??? If we are hitting on all eight cylinders we will
be difficult for ANYONE.

That sounded like Meetgo on the last name. I may just have to go with the Great Dane.

If we're hitting on just eight of our 11 cylinders, we'll be really good.

Agreed. But the quote was attributed to our not-so-green freshman point, Landry Shamet, last week. :poster_wsu:

Not speaking to the quote, speaking to the attitude.

Here is the combined line for our 1 and 2 guards:

46 points

11 assists
0 turnovers
.643 fg%
.526 3fg%

That seems like a good stat line to me.

And except for JRS, they all stand to be back next year.

I wish he wouldn't have been fired. He had a team of good young talent coming in.

[Cdizzle]

I am disappointed today.

A month ago I thought Shamet was going to put up some ridiculous overall numbers in his career at WSU.

Now I think I'm wrong.

I have had those same thoughts.
