WSU @ SIU

I'm hoping to see some inspired play, that's all.

[OKC Shocker]

That was not a good half of basketball.

Graham, Demetric and Stutz all had good half's of basketball. Clevin Hannah and Toure had two of the worst half's of this year. 7 TO's between the two of them, I expect a little more focus from them in the second half.

I've taken more inspired dumps....

3 words "Shocks lack poise"...

[60Shock]

We must have set a record for walks the first half. When we go cold, we go cold.

[jocoshock]

to many missed bunnies. Hit them and Shox lead comfortably. Whoever comes out tougher to start the 2nd half is going to win this game.

We need to get this W tonight and finish with a strong 2nd half. We need to momentum heading into our game later this week with UNI.

[Anthroshock]

Refs really letting 'em play. 4 total freethrows in the first half. 7 fouls for the Shocks 6 for the uglies.

All comes down to taking care of the ball and running an offense.

[cincyshocker]

Very reminiscent of game @ ISU-Red. I think we were up 1 at half then too. Hopefully different result in the end.

[WstateU]

We played like Zombies at Drake… playing like Mummies tonight. : :banghead:

[ShockerPrez]

We are following our M.O. for road games: No offensive rhythm. One or 2 offensive spurts spurred on by good defense, giving a false sense of superiority over a lesser foe. Take some dumb shots and make some stupid passes. Let other teams hit a few shots out they ass. Keep the game close, and let 1 or 2 plays late determine the winner.

Looking forward to it.

"Honey, where's that bottle of gin?"

[SubGod22]

Apparently Drake wasn't the wake up call we thought/hoped it would be.

[ShockerPrez]

And just a random thought. I know that Hannah had a very impressive free throw streak, but does anyone know what his consecutive game streak is for getting a carrying call?

Add JT and Blair to the stinky list...

[GoShockers89]

This is the time to man up. This second half determines whether we have a shot at UNI, a chance to contend for a league title, and our Bracketbuster opponent.

We're playing for something. Come out and play like it, damn it.

Please don't let Dillard look like Rajon Rondo this half.
