get lucky right before half wiith the steal and dunk

[Rosewood]

Hatch with a block!!!

I wonder if he will get credit for that.

[SubGod22]

He was over ... and then threw it back...

He only had one foot across. You have to have both feet and the ball.

I thought his back foot was on the line

I hit rewind and he didn't.

This is embarrassing
Can't totally blame the guys on the court. Our mens team has the same problem as our girls team. No emotion, no fun playing the game. I don't get millions to coach eighteen year olds but our teams have no emotion. no celebration when good things happen, lots of talent but when you have no emotion it is a waste. And poor results are the result.

It would take video evidence to prove it.

More press please

[Rosewood]

Garrett weighs 250 pounds, right?

Why does he get tossed around like he barely hits 200?

Would someone with an understanding of physics help me out?

It is all about balance. He still hasn't full grown into himself. A lot of guys that grow that tall as late as stutz take decades to grow into it.

That isn't luck - that is defense - which me need more of.

Would you say that's a result of coaching style?

We finally started heating it up full court after we got down 14 points. I hope we learned something going into the second half.

I would pay good money to get the shockers of 1330 or at least not have to listen to cross promotion of other 1330 programs.

[ShockerFever]

Great first half. Real great.

Amen

Very lucky to be within 8 at the half.

Is it possible that we lead the country in missed bunnies? I think we need to have our guys inner ears checked. It seems like it only takes minimal contact to totally knock us off balance on those bunnies.

Also, does Toure lead the nation in shots blocked by the bottomo the rim/backboard?

We need to hold these guys to about 25 points in the 2nd half.

The team is lost and not playing with any smarts.

Its a shame they just finished the renovations at SIU Arena. The visiting lockerroom is going to need fresh paint after tonight.

Its getting very old watching this team play bad defense and then be unwilling to make any adjustments.

Its also frustrating to not be able to even talk about an at large bid. Even if a miracle happens and we find a way to win, it is painfully obvious this team is not going to beat enough good teams down the stretch. 5-4 in the 2nd half of the Valley looks pretty good right now.
