We're 5-22 from 3...Maybe we should try something else offensively

[GDT Rename them the Slukies]

We're in the bonus, keep drawing fouls

[GDT Rename them the Slukies]

There we go, attack the basket and get to the line

Ford has not put up an offense built for this team

Agreed

Feels like the wheels have fallen off

Score. Can't get this anywhere? 

19-15 SIU 6:30 left in the first half

Our offense is way too slow to develop.  Set some high screens and attack the basket, don't pass the ball along the perimeter and settle for jumpers

Bills 10-10 from the stripe, 10-22 from the arc. Crazy we weren't competitive with numbers like that.

And Davidson was only 11-23 from 3.  The difference in the game was points in the paint-- Davidson had 28 to our 12.  They kept exploiting that backdoor cut and getting easy looks all night, while we had to fight for every bucket down low.

Of course Bartley made that deep 3 to make it a 3 point game with 11 seconds left

Ford emotions dont help the players,, needs calmer demeanor

So he needs to be more like Jim Crews?

[SLU vs siu: I guess we’ll do a game thread]

Ok Bess can shoot threes too.  Just as long as Hines and Goodwin aren't taking threes, we'll be good

Leave him in nothing to lose 

I agree, but he looks pretty gassed so a breather might do him some good

[SLU vs siu: I guess we’ll do a game thread]

Wow that was a soft foul call.  French picks up his 4th foul

[SLU vs siu: I guess we’ll do a game thread]

Ok new rule:  only Johnson and Roby (sometimes) should shoot 3s.  Every one else should post up or drive to the basket.

Teams have thrown a lot of 2-3 zone at us so far this year, and it's pretty easy to see why

Speaking of which...

If I were defensing us, I'd play a zone,covering only JJ, and make sure Hines or Roby has the ball under ten seconds be cause a bad decision/rush shot will be made/taken.  This team s woefully inept from distance ---- mid-range or threes.

French with the dribble-drive

since seattle, both are 2 for 21 from 3. 

Meanwhile Psimitis is 2 for 2 from 3 in his 7 minutes of action on the year.  #secretweapon

Atta boy, Jordan, keep driving to the hoop

 

[SLU vs siu: I guess we’ll do a game thread]

So many mental errors.  We play great d and force a bad shot but can't corral the rebound, and they naturally score on the extra possession we gifted them

[SLU vs siu: I guess we’ll do a game thread]

Jordan Goodwin has attempted 27 3-pointers this year.  He has made 2 of them.
