Re: GW vs Mason Game Thread
Announcers said Noel Brown is also out. So we're playing with 2 bigs for the entire game....doesn't bode well

And Dean picked up a really dumb, unnecessary foul in the first minute.

Quick foul on Dean (I thought it was an awful call)

Re: GW vs Mason Game Thread
Nice Bishop assist and Dean dunk!
Good fight so far against a rusty team.
Seems really odd to have 3 players injured in practice.

Re: GW vs Mason Game Thread
For a team that theoretically wants to shoot a lot of 3s we don't seem to hit many of them

Not sure what Tyler Warner does other than stand around

So many easy layups for them.

His defense has been non-existent so far.
When Dean is out, might as well get Knapp out there with Bishop/Brayon/Bam/Qwanzi. Spread the floor and hope to generate offense to make up for the lack of D, plus we’ve often been better with Qwanzi than with Brown or Dean anyway.

Agree, we are losing our man too often on defense. I shudder to think what Princeton would do to us with backdoor cut after backdoor cut.

Re: GW vs Mason Game Thread
Who's Knapp?
We don't use a player with that name.

Amir Harris is in. That works too. I can’t believe I forgot about him. He’s played so little and it seems like he lost of all of his confidence when he missed those two layups in the final seconds of the season opener.

Re: GW vs Mason Game Thread
Warner looked like he is playing on about a 3-4 second delay. When the ball is up in the air you can see his brain working to figure out who to try and box out instead of turning to the rim.

This Purdue-Illinois game is excellent. Real basketball being played.

Re: GW vs Mason Game Thread
Brayon has looked great so far! Defense has been solid and he can really slice and dice his way to the rim. One poor TO earlier in the game but that's to be expected from a freshman. Very impressed by him so far

Re: GW vs Mason Game Thread
Seems like the broadcast is also on a few second delay. I am seeing updates from Finest Magazine on twitter before the action on TV.

Why are they wearing these stupic pictograph uniforms? GW is a school that requires some level of reading skills for admission (or was this a concession to the poor Mason fans who cannot identify that many letters?)

Re: GW vs Mason Game Thread
Love the way we are competing so far. Mason’s lack of bigs and lack of physical play is like manna from heaven for us so far and we’ve done a better job passing than in past games

Re: GW vs Mason Game Thread
At least 10 of GMUs 17 points must be on uncontested dunks/layups.
Bishop needs to stop that awful step-back 3 pointer he often takes. He can shoot the ball, just needs space and time.
