I don’t get it that was his bread and butter last year He didn't get to the free throw line and only scored 3 points in 30 minutes. I don't get it.

It's about time they changed the rule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowboy Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 -one more item, I believe RI's last fg was a 3ptr with about 7 minutes remaining, after that they had 2 ft's, i hope it was the case that our defense was outstanding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slufan13 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 I am still not totally sold on Hankton as a player, but I think our offense looks a lot better with him in the game. Ford is being forced to go away from his dead set reliance on two paint-confined bigs on the court and I think it's helping us out quite a bit. Goodwin honestly looks lost at this point. I don't know what's wrong with him. He is not the same player. I wonder why he lost all the weight? Thatch was terrible offensively yesterday but he is still a baller especially defensively. I want more minutes than he played yesterday as the importance of winning with defense has become magnified. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slubillikens43 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Not sure if anyone mentioned it yet but Hankton had the highest +/- out of anyone yesterday at +13 MattyMo213, SLU_Nick, Pistol and 3 others like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FromDaEastSide Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Check the background at the 2:05 mark. Guess Gus was late to his early dinner reservation at the Pasta House. BTW, that defense by Bess was sick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlarry Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 2 hours ago, Billiken Rich said: I thought it was an interesting choice to pull out our unofficial fight song from last year. I've no idea if the players have any idea who Yul Brenner is but I thought it was appropriate to close out a too close game. When the players think of the Magnificent 7 they probably think of Denzel Washington. I haven’t seen the new one but I have a hard time believing it’s as good as the original.

Ford - "he's probably in the locker room thinking he didnt play well, because of scoring, but Jordan brings so much to our basketball team leadership-wise and energy-wise. He can rebound, he's playing the point for us. Jordan makes out team go" I dont think he looks lost at all. He is doing everything but scoring. If you watch him in games he gets the ball where it needs to be.

almaman Posted January 7, 2019 Author Share Posted January 7, 2019 2 hours ago, wgstl said: KC didnt look as scared or nervous like he did in the minutes prior to yesterdays game. That was refreshing to see. The pressure of failing and not getting further minutes no longer a concern might be the cause. He knows he has to play rather than thinking he gets to play. He and us knew and now have seen that he can do it. let's hope we get 4 quality year out of him here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you watch him in games he gets the ball where it needs to be. I agree with this too. Last year, we really counted on him to score. I don't think that is the case this year - I thought he was pretty good yesterday - would like to see him get to the line a little more, but as long as we limit TO's, we are okay, as was the case yesterday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clocktoweraccords2004 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Besides French, we had very low foul numbers. That’s been a trend recently compared to the beginning of the season I noticed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s been a trend recently compared to the beginning of the season I noticed. The refs were basically letting the guys play. It was a little rough, but in my eyes equal on both sides. I did like the kick-out offensive foul on Dowtin. That should be called every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlarry Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 I think the officals let them play a lot more physical come conference play. They call all the ticky tack stuff in the out of conference to try and make a point. when they realize nothing is going to change they give up and go back to letting them play.
