GDT: Austin McBroom Bowl 2019

[Taj79]

Mason goes to 3 and 0.  Fordham has three point lead and ball with 5 to go.  Uconn coming back down 8 to the Joeys under 8.  Daly with 24 with 5 threes.

Penn beats La Salle.

Even as terrible of a offensive start we had, we still finish the half with 36 nice to see.

Yep - and 6 at half, and just 1 TO. He's got 20 assists in his first 2.5 college games.

French's free throw form looks much worse than it did the prior 2 games

Play by play says Goodwin, but I thought it was Has'.

FT's. 1-12 Jeesh, 6th grade girls could beat 1-12. This has to be fixed. Not sure how u fix it, but this is a bunch of wasted points. I tremble every time we go the line. 

[juniorbill76]

Goodwin is quietly halfway to a double double with 6 pts. 5 reb.

Did anyone see the look Tay gave Perkins after Tay hit the three and EWU came down and got it right back?

He is pushing the ball vs shooting it.

Tay is a player man.  Grown man out there.

We fawn over Yuri, but when we face high major competition, Weaver might be needed.

The two things I see in Perkins are:

1. He's got a scorer's mentality. When he gets the ball, he's going to shoot.

2. He looks panicked when he gets the ball, like he doesn't quite know where he needs to be or what else he can do besides shoot.

He needs to settle down, get more acclimated to the system, and get some confidence in his all-around game. He's made some shots in stretches this season but he's not taking particularly good shots and he's taking them way too quickly. I feel like he could really fill it up if he figures it out.

Perkins looked the same way in high school.  That's actually what he looks like. 

He's 3/5 from the field and has two assists.  This is easily his best offensive game.  The two shots he missed were wide open in the flow of the offense.  He just missed them.

I thought Goodwin was the second guy inbut FMW didn't say who.

No more knocking Yurimania. Great pass to French! 

My bad but he played better after my post.

[CBFan]

French came out and practiced free throws 

[Taj79]

The Joeys are holding on.

Good analysis.  Javonte has had that panicked look since 4th grade.  It will appear like he's not engaged in the game offensively...then he gets the ball in his hands and then goes to work lol.

My comments are in reference to every SLU game so far, not just tonight. His shots tonight have been marginally better.

I haven't seen enough to him to have realized that's just his demeanor. He's an unusual player.

[TheA_Bomb]

French coming in HOT

[Pistol]

Well, well, well.

That's a good start to the half.

43-24, good guys, 17:41. EWU timeout.

[slu72]

This is a different Team than we've ever seen. They run and can shoot. 

[billikenbill]

We made 2 FTs!!!

[majerus mojo]

Love a good Bronx cheer 

[Pistol]

Goodwin went 2-2 from the line.

We're gonna start celebrating made FTs like the Gramatica brothers celebrating made FGs and extra points.
