Grand Canyon (12/10/2022)

[2020 Sucks]

I swear…Abou misses more shots in the paint than his value!

[L Ron Studdard]

One of those patented droughts. Two points in the last 6:22.

Having a tough time making shots right now.  Our quick start has been nullified.

The game is so much easier when you can make shots and so tough when you can't.

Our offense needs some work. It really shouldn’t be that difficult to speed up the pace and make shots. I understand we want to control the pace of the game and we work overtime on defense, but goodness watching our offense isn’t exciting at all. 

[Andrew]

3 chances their for Grand Canyon and all 3 point shots with a quick kick out… we need to learn . A few things there and maybe start speeding up the pace and getting some shots off. Sometimes we really do need Pick up the pace. It’s leading to too many scoreless droughts dragging our feet.

GCU 27 -------- NT 26

 

 

Halftime

 

The way both of these teams play, it might be first to fifty.

[UNTethered Eagle]

Notwithstanding the 1-point GCU lead we’ve played well and can win this game if we tighten up a little more in the paint and of course get Perry involved with 3’s. 
 

Harrison for GVU seems to be their player “feeling it” so far.

[GrandGreen]

Sure far from a neutral site.

I guess this is a product of not being able to schedule because few want to play NT.

 

[Green Lantern]

We need a couple of guys to step up and knock down open shots. Our scoring droughts are brutal.

Defense playing tough as always.

We're finding some offense out there!

That was an interesting stat there… essentially when our star post player scores 10 points over the last 5 games we win just about every time….

Huntsberry is having a pretty good game.  Gotta keep their guys from having easy three point looks.

I agree, how?  

[p_phelps]

Is huntsberry the 2nd best player!? Love it

This is turning into a real nailbiter.

[NTXDJ]

I love seeing Huntsbury attack the lane.  We have to be more than just an outside shooting team. 

This is a fun game to watch.  The crowd sounds good.

[p_phelps]

Free throws coming to hurt us again 

[L Ron Studdard]

9-20 from three for GCU is the difference right now.

Need to clamp down on defense and hope we get some shots to fall.

[TheColonyEagle]

Come on guys. Keep grinding this thing!

[Green Lantern]

A Scott and Abou playing tough in the paint! Great 2nd chance opportunities!

[L Ron Studdard]

Ous said get big!

[TheColonyEagle]

2 more stops 

[TheColonyEagle]

Horrible call
