XW saved the game twice

Turns out it was XW with the wherewithal to call the timeout that kept us from dying with a John Crosby half court heave. Then made the great pass that we were all aware of.

Good point. In live-ball situations, coaches can only call a timeout while ball is being inbounded. Once the ball was passed in, AG could not call timeout - only a player. Excellent awareness by XW.

Okay, gave up game once and saved it twice. If a 2-1 assist to turnover ratio is good, have to give him props for this 2-1.

Being balanced - was having severe cramping and had to have fluids pumped in after the game.

I am a XW fan, but he should be able to go 40 minutes at that age without cramping. Makes me question his off-season conditioning, whether he drinks enough fluids during the game, whether he is sleeping enough, and whether he is eating right. Or perhaps he was sick and if so, I apologize.

Again, XW was a beast last year and will be the next two years. Great two decisions at the end of the game, high IQ player. But keeping it real, XW had an ok to bad game overall.

For whatever it’s worth, it was hotter than usual last night in the Arena (not as hot as the exhibition game, but still a little toasty). Kostas came out and laid by the bench getting his calf stretched out behind the huddle in the first half, and Baby D also got some calf cramps and was worked on by the training staff in the second half. Xeyrius spend a good amount of time during the last two games on the exercise bike behind the bench whenever he wasn’t on the floor. Wonder if he has a stiff back or something.

Agree 100% he had a so-so game overall. Got lost a bunch of times on D. Coach Grant was displeased after one of BSU’s first half threes and let #20 know about it. He got burned badly on the last layup for Ball State.

That said, he played a lot of tough minutes for us and he will improve. Lot of season ahead and we have guys who seem to want to get better.

Unless it's Mojave Desert hot or "surface of US Open" tennis tournament hot, the temperature isn't a factor here. It's no 110 degrees on the surface of the court at UD arena.

OK, it's 75 instead of 72. If that's the difference between cramping and not cramping, then it's not fluids they need it's Midol.

Crosby played well against Ball State but wtf was he walking the ball up with 3 seconds to go???? That's horrendous awareness right there.

Brain fart. I've seen the pros go to sleep as well on occasion.

It was very warm in the arena. Large crowd probably had something to do with it.

Athletes cramp every day now. This is part of pushing the envelope. Sometimes hard to prevent.

Cramping may not be lack of conditioning. It may be dehydration or lack of certain vitamins or minerals in the body.

I already thought he had earned his scholarship, but I'll give you that he might have earned a co-captain's position for next year

There are different schools of thought in those situations. I thought the most prevalent thinking today is to grab the ball and sprint down straight to the basket - think Rob Lowery vs Fordham a few years back (good outcome) or Aaron Craft vs UD in NCAA tourney (a most excellent outcome). Did they players do what they were coached to do or was it ad lib? They should be prepared to do what they are coached to do.
