Sex, oh that went a long time a go. JK:lol:
TW needs to give some of that rainbow to SM;-)
This was my last game as I'm leaving for the Valley of the Sun, where it's going to be rainy and in 50's all week so no golf for awhile.
I like all 3 of our 6 ft guards, but I'm not sure about all of them being on the floor at the same time against bigger and better teams. IMO, DD is the one guy who has to be in the lineup. Don't let TW shoot 3's. Don't want our opposing fans chanting "air ball, air ball." Taylor Brown is going to be a favorite before he leaves the hilltop.

That screen and cut to the corner is the stuff legends are made of! Great to see him get in

Just my humble opinions. I came into the game thinking that I'd be happy with a strong defensive effort and I half-way defined this as keeping SEMO in the mid to low 50's. Call me crazy if you must but I thought that would've made a very big defensive statement...they were a terrible shooting team and they still got 62 points on us at home...I consider that relatively high.
I have now decided that I don't think AT should be in as the only big. He gets swallowed up in there and seems almost non-existent. He had a nice effort though and obviously will get better with more minutes.
A lot of people were impressed with EM but I was more impressed with DN..his smooth shot and his poise was great today.
I think TB should continue to take the 3pt shots despite his average...I don't compare him to WE at all in that he should not be playing down low he gets swallowed up in there also against bigger more talented teams. He's got a nice touch and they will start falling for him eventually.
Disappointed about the defensive effort...still shot poorly..kept this team in it almost the entire way (a 13 point win isn't THAT extreme).
Our shooting percentage was better than theirs in the first half yet they still out rebounded us..go figure..I guess because we had a small lineup
Lastly (and this may sound stupid) but we got beat by SEMO in the 2nd half.....I don't care who was in I don't care if we acted like this was an exhibition game or w/e....that SHOULD NOT happen especially 9 games into the season.
Overall I feel not much has improved except TW's free throw shooting which is good of course...JL needs to figure something out and quick or else it's bottom half of the Valley
Sorry to be the Debbie Downer

Bradleyguy10, yeah, I've got mixed feelings about the win too, but I wouldn't say there's little to no improvement. Bright spots are that our freshmen are getting better and stepping-up when given the opportunity. That's great if our veterans aren't getting the job done. I think Darian Norris had a career high at 12 pts, and McCain had a 6-3 assist/turnover ratio. We're feeding the post a little more, and David Collins had a pretty good game.

Oh yeah I forgot to mention DC thanks ser solace. I actually was impressed with DC in that game. I noticed that in the 2nd half the opposing center kind of hit him pretty hard when David got the ball from one of the guards and it kind of ticked him off and then from there on out every time he got the ball he would put the ball on the ground once back the guy up and turn and shoot. He got blocked once but at least it looked like he was angry and like he wanted to hit the guy hard and make a shot. I was happy with DC tonight...but then again this is the DC we are always happy with when it's lesser competition.
I think it'd be nice to continue to see DN start over CR...just my opinion now...didn't think so at first..but I'd like to see more of what he can do.

Doesn't Illinois State have them on their schedule this year? :razz::lol:
