GDT: SLU v. Southeast Missouri State

[Lord Elrond]

44-35 Billikens at the half

[RyGuyBilliken]

Should be up 30. 1st game is always gonna be sloppy, but you can see the potential

Is this a different dance team?

They called it “exquisite” or something over the PA

Looked like the “Track Suit” dance team

Yeah, I wore those same track suits to elementary school in 1993

60-52 MSU over SLU women after 3. Mizzou State is shooting 47/50/65 after 3, I thought the women’s D was going to be better?

But to be fair to myself, I was watching a lot of In Living Color at the time

They’re Xquizit, the hip hop dance troupe on campus.

The student section, like the team, has been a little uncoordinated at times but the turnout was better than I expected

[RiseOfTheBillikens]

We have a dance team anymore?

Curious what happened with Warlick.

Schertz must love Q jones. He’s played the entire time.  Thames looks good. 
 

this is fun to watch bc you can see the potential 

I'm not yet a fan of jones.   2-3 opportunities for assists he forced a miss shot.   If he's gonna be the lead guard pass first shoot second imo 

[Bay Area Billiken]

SLU has 9 turnovers, 6 assists.

Pretty good, I think, not sure of the total number

[billikenbill]

4 on McCottry.

[Lord Elrond]

I do like the blue inflatables

We're only 20 minutes in and we're up 11. But I'm worried will blah D and bad TOs be a thing the whole season?  One or the other we can maybe survive but both and good teams will get us.

My opinion. We are ahead at the half by 9 pts.  Not bad and on line to an 18 pt gain. Otieno is a beast in the court, he sweats a LOT. I would make sure he has a lot of Gatorade and when he seats down. Thames has been doing a great job with no evidence of cramping, I think the therapy works well. Avila is doing fine. I see no sign of  Brown having problems with his legs. McCotry has presence and power in couurt. Grey has not done that well, I expected more. 

From the statts point of view: We are beating them in the % of fieeld goals made, both 2 and 3 pointers, We are beating them in % FG made. We are outrebounding them 21-13, out assisting them 6-4. Yes sure we are having 1 more TO by the half and we had no blocks before the end of the 1st half.

I think we are not totally cohesive as a team yer, but this is  the first half of the first game. I think we are on our way to winning, not clear by how much,
