TU @ Temple Official Thread

[I.I.]

Winnable game. But our road effort starts off being very gentle to the opposing players. Only when behind by 12-15 do we start throwing our bodies on the floor after loose balls. Can we at least change the early effort and not fire up poor shots at the shot clock and weak tremble turnovers by “you know which ones”. .

 

[I.I.]

Carlous fails to go after rebound.

 

[Weatherdemon]

Best start on the road this season?

 

[I.I.]

Finally a good start to a road game. Crowd will be very small.

 

[nevadanatural]

Yeah, after a couple of early turnovers we’ve settled in with some good defense and a little O.

 

[nevadanatural]

We need to bring in a rebounding coach.

 

[Weatherdemon]

We need to bring in a rebounding coach.

Yea. Stats don’t show we’re doing that bad losing the battle 6-7 but it sure feels like we’re getting outworked in a big way.

 

['Cane-man]

Alright! A good start. Keep it up!!!

 

[I.I.]

Who is this team in blue?

 

[I.I.]

I agree you don’t need McWright and Carlous in at same time. Need scorers. Attacking rim on fast breaks. Our best offense.

 

[Weatherdemon]

Who is this team in blue?

LOL!
It just hit me that we are up 12 at the under 12!

 

[Weatherdemon]

Interesting that Haggerty seems to be the primary PG that last few games.
2 bad turnovers so far though.

 

[I.I.]

Archie got to make those.

 

[Weatherdemon]

Archie has kind of lost his shot the last few games.

 

[nevadanatural]

Archie’s shooting touch has really been off these last couple of games.

 

[I.I.]

Archie shot off the last three games

 

[I.I.]

Mcwright last 3 corner threes have been air balls.

 

[nevadanatural]

I think this is the longest PJ has been on the bench all year.

 

[I.I.]

Got to guard their hot shooter.

 

[I.I.]

Got to guard their hot shooter. mcWright 8 feet away.

 

[TU 1978]

A good start, but don’t understand why McWright sees the floor.

 

[nevadanatural]

It’s weird, we’re up 10 on the road but it doesn’t feel like it because we’re missing so many opportunities. We should be up 20.

 

[I.I.]

Don’t sub too deep, Eric.

 

[nevadanatural]

We haven’t scored in ages.

 

[I.I.]

Now we decide to shoot all threes.

 

[Weatherdemon]

Now we decide to shoot all threes.

Yea. Temple within 5 after we choose to not run offense for 4 minutes.

 

[nevadanatural]

We just can’t hit from any distance right now. That’s been our big downfall all season, we play well but go long stretches where we can’t hit an open shot.

 

[nevadanatural]

Now we decide to shoot all threes.

We’ve been shooting from inside and outside but nothing is going down.

 

[nevadanatural]

We haven’t scored in almost 4 minutes and that was the Carlous three after another long drought.

 

[Weatherdemon]

Cobe ends the drought with a 3.

 

[Weatherdemon]

Nice run!
Bad foul by P.J. though.

 

[nevadanatural]

Up 14 now after 3 three pointers. We are so streaky.

 

[nevadanatural]

Some bad fouls here.

 

[nevadanatural]

I didn’t see a foul there.

 

[Weatherdemon]

How in the hell do you foul in that spot?
Not great, Reed.

Excellent that we have guys stepping up and have a lead at half with Haggerty not being on his game with only 5 points.
We all know Haggerty will get his in the 2nd.

 

[nevadanatural]

I guess I shouldn’t be unhappy being up 9 on the road at half but I am because we closed out that half so poorly. We should be up 20+. If PJ can have his typical second half we should be fine.

 

[I.I.]

Have the ball with 6 second difference in shot and game clock and Garcia shoots 25 footer off and then we foul 6 times in the last 2.4 seconds and 13 point lead is gone ?????

 

[TulsaBandit]

Temple throwing away the refs gifts by going 5-11 on FTs. TU needs to stomp on their throats in the 2nd.

 

[I.I.]

Nice to be defending the worst shooting team in the AAC for once.

 

[Weatherdemon]

We have such bad hands sometimes.
