WSU vs. Siena in-game discussion

[vbird53]

I still think we can. The talent is this tourney is much better quality than we'll see in the Valley.

Uh, I'm not that impressed with Siena, and really wasn't too impressed with Georgetown either. I think you're underestimating how bad we suck. I mean we're talking missed layups, sloppy play, no offense. This is on us..

We're talking about basketball in November. The rest of the college basketball fan-base hasn't even realized that the season has begun yet. Give it some time, man. We're playing what, 11 freshman and sophomores? It's a work in progress.

Every day is going to be different. So far, the only constant is Clemente on the boards.

For those of you that didn't get to see the drive to the bucket by Murry late in the 1st half, it was as smooth as silk. Ellis gets up and has really nice form on his shot. Herky Jerky play but nice to see the rapid growth of certain individuals. Hawkins needs to snap out of it for crying out loud!!

For those of you watching, was the last 5 minutes a vast improvement and did we take a little momentum into the lockerroom?

The first half woes can be narrowed down to 2 main problems. Our offense and our defense. However, only 7 down? We are fortunate there. With a solid 2nd half--shoring up the turnovers and a better shooting half---could it be that--------???????

Yes, I know. That's a fact for every team.

I know it's a work in progress. I even called for a Siena win.

It's just frustrating to see how they're gonna beat us. I figured it was because they're more experienced and just plain better than us. Instead, it's because we're blowing SIMPLE basketball stuff (high school type things) and just handing them the game.

If Clemente averages a double double, how well do we have to do in the tournament for him to get an award?

[vbird53]

Another last second shot against us...

[1979Shocker]

It seems like each game a different player is stepping up. Now all we need is for all those players to step up.

Go unbeaten the rest of the way.

[shocks02]

We need to get more than 1 or 2 players to get a hot hand. Ellis is the only one that played well.

That is all well and good, but I don't see how you can expect this team shooting woes to change. You can either shoot (or in Marshall venicular be a "Maker") or you can't. This team can't shoot and that has been pretty consistent regardless of the opponent.
