The Wiz Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 I changed St. B to St. B+ for this thread because they are a B+ team. We remain at C+. All are Def grades on the report card have improved after the Ford game. A win over the Bonnies would move us to B- and make us one of the "good" teams. The Bonnies meanwhile are a bubble team for now so every game is important to them. Let's look at the report card and see what the issues are.... ...................SLU...............OFF.............St. B+.....................................SLU....................DEF..................St. B PPG..............F+......................................B- ..........................................A .............................................B- FG%.............D-.....................................C+............................................B-...............................................B 3P%.............F........................................A ...26th in nation...................C................................................A+ 16th in nation FT%.............F+.....................................B+.................................................................................................. Reb.............B-........................................C..........................................A-.................................................B Top performers in the nation Steals... Goodwin....29th Blks.......French........57th 3P%........Adams.......37th FT%........Adams.......97th PPG.......Mobley........92nd It's all about the 3s...on both ends of the court. St. B+ is one of the best 3pt teams in the country led by Adams with a stunning 47.8% On the other end , St. B is even better at 3pt defense. Overall St. B can match us on Def and beat us on offense. Can we beat them?...Yes but it won't be easy. Here is how we can do it..... Slash.....45 /36/ 72 we need a sweep here to have a chance.... Stop the 3.....Keep Adams and Brockington below 40% Keep TOs down....We had 15 last game...too many...no more than 11....plus we need to have at least 2 better than them Beat them on the Boards....by 5...we will not dominate them but we need to beat them especially on D reb FTs........Avoid fouling...Adams and Mobley....both 80% + shooters...a FT war and we lose. PPG....Hold Mobley to 14pts. We will have to bring our A game to win this (or at least our A- game)....If we play like we did against Fordham with a few less TOs, we win.

Old guy Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 I would say St. Bona is much closer to SLU in terms of their stats. I think this game is winnable. St. Bona is favored by team rankings to win this game but their confidence level is a single star which means they think we are pretty close to St. Bona.

HoosierPal Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 This is what Adams did to the Dukes on Saturday. 40 points. 14-22 from field 8-13 from 3 7 assists, 1 block and 1 steal He also made a three pointer with 5 seconds left to win the game 84-81. He did have three Turn Overs, so he wasn't perfect. Ha. Ourtown's Courtney Stockard went for 10 points and 6 boards in 35 minutes of action.

Since the Bills are trending up the last few games, much better than the noncon - is this factored in? Like trending grade? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownwolves Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Box and One thank you for the post. Its also my favorite! Ya " The One " must have recently hatched. Your Courtney Stockard has played well for the Bonnies this year, His story is very inspiring. I hope the St Louis paper does a full article on him. There is a Bona blog that is calling this a very tight game due to your defense. You guys will get a second chance at the end of he year. Go RickMa, beat Dayton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownwolves Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Adams not playing tonight - no big deal. Plenty of bench strength. Most likely St Louis standout will start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myself, I'm more concerned about available sober bus drivers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
