If I learned anything from the last thread, its that if you add "technology" behind the school's name, then add the initial "t" to the cheerleader's outfits it becomes much funnier; hope we get to play Southern Methodist or St Mary's again in the tournament.

They have been playing a lot of zone of late. will be interesting to see how Archie prepares for that.
|
Too many negative thoughts around these parts. We should be psyched.
I felt a year ago we were limping into the end of the season. Kendall was hurting and that definitely put a damper on things. He has been playing his best ball ever over these last couple of games. DD playing better. Charles balancing team ball with his own one v one skills. XW is a major contributor and Kyle and Scooch are their usual reliable selves. Josh coming back gives us some height and beef down low that we have been lacking.
We control our own destiny.
Go Flyers!

A win today all but guarantees a top 4 seed and a bye until Friday quarterfinals for the Flyers. The one chance I can see us getting a 5 seed would be GM winning out and Flyers losing out. We have beat Richmond, URI (twice), STB (twice after today), and La Salle, and those are the teams with 6 losses that we would have to tie with in the 4-7 seed range.
(If UD loses out and GM wins out, of the remaining possible outcomes of all other games (outside of Stj losing to STL/DUQ), there are .10% chances of UD finishing in 5th.)

I hope they never fire Kellogg because as long as he's there that's one team we won't have to worry about challenging for the A10. Of course we'll have to worry about when we play them there, especially since I will probably be in attendance. :)

It appears the Flyers have never seen a 2-3 zone before and the zone buster Darrell Davis is on the bench for the rest of the half with 2 fouls.
And our guards might consider trying to stay in front of theirs while playing D.

If we hit the two wide open threes, we are playing good. But we did not and confusion ensues on offense.

UD has let Adams and Mobley get their rhythm. That is not good.
In some cases I would say press and try to make this game ugly and try to get some steals, but I'm pretty sure their guards would absolutely destroy a press.

Circus Shots? They're hitting squared up 3 pointers. Just because that last one by Adams was beyond NBA range doesn't make it a circus shot. That is right in Adams range.

Darrell has struggled with finishing since day one. He is moving too quickly and doesn't gather himself for the soft layup.

It was 26-11 so I guess being down 6 isn't too bad all considering.
Game changed after that when Archie put Cooke on Adams. Only 2 points Adams had after that was a loose ball driving layup.
Also Scoochie decided he needed to be aggressive and try to score until he got his 2nd foul.

Rebounds, turnovers and three point shooting dead even. They are 9-18 on two's and we are 4-16. Pollard, Williams, Cunningham and Mikesell with one two pointer among them.
We have got to get some inside scoring this half.

BeckysTXA |

We didn't score in the last 2:26 except free throws. Gotta find consistant offense. Getting hurt inside. Bonnie's have 4 blocks. Ouch.

02-18-2017 03:00 PM |
We need to get in the middle of that zone. We really didn't do that in the first half. The Flyers did precisely what the Bonnies wanted them to do - perimeter passing and taking some kind of flailing shot at the end of time.
|
We'll be OK.
Keep taking it in. They have 3 starters with 2 fouls. Inside out.

They haven't been taking it strong to the rim when they have gotten it inside. Had they, they would've at least drawn more fouls and backed off SB's defense.
