So, the game tonight

[Username Not Available]

Decent student turnout. Not a bad population in general for the team and the time.

Matt looking good so far.

Martinelli pulling up for a jumper off the dribble makes me happy. He would not do it if he was not confident in it.

Just shows how hard he has worked on expanding his game.

Unfortunately getting nothing from Berry again

Hunger almost killed Leach without noticing. Cats look much better on the floor, but the balls aren’t falling. Waves have gotten away with a couple of key fouls. We’ll see if it matters in the long run.

Mullins!!

 

[TheC]

Checking ESPN feed. It said Matt Nicholson made a jumper. Is there some kind of glitch at ESPN or did that really happen??

 

[SmellyCat]

Mullins with two steals, two rebounds and two field goals already!

Matt missed a layup, got his own rebound and tipped it in or something like that. Hard to see in the scrum

Cats are missing a lot of open shots so far.

 

[TejasCat]

Not even close on our threes

We just can't seem to make a three-pointer

 

[catfans5]

Barnhizer is way off on his shots.

Actually all the shooting seems to be off tonight

Mullins plays off ball defense really well.

[SmellyCat]

Turnovers at the half - 7 to 0. Though NU is getting out-rebounded 21-19.

 

[DaCat]

Pepperdine was playing us close for a while then suddenly we’re up by 15.

Finished the half strongly and in the locker room with a 31-19 lead.

Mullins should start instead of Barry

I think he may supplant Ty. He is very lean, but seems quite strong. With Brooks and Nick, it makes a good rebounding trifecta.

 

[SDakaGordie]

Mullins should start instead of Barry

Feel bad for Ty but this is true.

 

[MCC_Cat]

No Jello tonight? Didn't see him in the box score yet...

Competition for spots is one way players improve. Ty and Justin are both solid players. Ty is not playing as well today and if he can’t get it together, his minutes might lessen. Hopefully that motivates him to make every minute count going forward.

He was key in closing out the last game, after all.

44 was in for a few minutes early.

Good defense from the cats turns into a careless turnover followed by a dumb foul by Ty. Yuck.

 

[Hungry Jack]

Nick be fired up. Must be Salma.

 

[catfans5]

Hunger just did a nice screen to allow the last lay up. Good court awareness.

Ty at this point based on performance is probably our eight best player

 

[GatoLouco]

Ty had slumps in the past. Multiple poor games. He came out of those, he will come out of this one! When he got injured last season he was playing at such a high level.

 

[DaCat]

Leach is on fire!

 

[Username Not Available]

Yeah he is. Couple of threes the hard way

 

[jensberg]

Yeah he is. Couple of threes the hard way

Only five of our players have scored tonight that's not Optimum

Sightings of Smith, Fitzmorris, and Gus to close out the game.

 

[Catreporter]

Abysmal shooting must get a lot better going forward. This was the last gimme game of the season,

 

[DaCat]

Post-game Coach Collins…

Fitzmorris plays basketball like a runaway windmill

He's really come into his own. He seemed to lose his way but has righted the ship.

He reminds me of one of those car dealership wavy arm balloons, just wriggling and waving all arms and legs akimbo. It's kinda hilarious and I like his enthusiasm.

He fills the stat sheet pretty well
