Re: GW vs Evansville Game Thread
Should I buy this? 30 bucks for the month, do we get other games as well?
We have a long way to go but this has been a really good half for us

Re: GW vs Evansville Game Thread
My concerns for 2nd half, in no particular order. 1. Evansville will make half time adjustments and we wind adapt; our 3 point shooting will cool off and Evansville, which is a good 3 point shooting team, will heat up after an abysmal half; and Evansville, which beat us on the interior numerous times without converting, will start having its shots drop. Let’s see if we can finish this one

Re: GW vs Evansville Game Thread
This has a better feel than yesterday, so we just assume a win is in the bag. In fact, no reason to have a second half. Let's just call it.
Dude: try it through the Towson basketball link, as painful as it may be to hear that name. It should be half price. You could have watched Tyler's games before he was injured and maybe Pato if he has a game on Flo Hoops this month.
Amongst the many oddities of this tournament, not even the top tier one in the Bahamas this weekend, is the sponsorship, which appears to be an erectile dysfunction health system. Though outside of the first half today and most of the first half yesterday, not being able to get it up fits quite nicely.

Maceo with 14 points I think. Potter also had a bunch. That's the best I've got.

Re: GW vs Evansville Game Thread
Agree Hugh that we are better with Juice and Mezzie on Court. Would add Potter. In fact, for large portion of half, we had soph (Mezzie), 2vjuniors (Maceo and Juice) and senior (Potter) on court, and we are up 15. Coincidence?

Re: GW vs Evansville Game Thread
Alright, you've all convinced me, I will buy this turkey, I Can't resist GW even at our lowest of lows lol
Side note, I'm on team Maceo, I know he's flawed but he's a legit 3 point shooter with length. A nice piece to have. Lets please hold onto him, he'd be a nice specialist with the right players around him.
Better half for JNJr?

Offensively would definitely add Potter. He gives up a LOT defensively though.

Notable that Potter and Juice are starting the second half with JNJ and Walker on the bench.

Re: GW vs Evansville Game Thread
Sorry guys, but this question requires me to curse...How The FUKKKK Did Evansville Win At Kentucky!!!!
Also, this tournament is actually providing updates on twitter, I wasn't sure if they were able to provide any updates considering what we've heard. It's good to see Jameer Sr there watching his son and the team.
their twitter site
Maceo Jack 3-pointer

Re: GW vs Evansville Game Thread
As feared, Evansville adjusted, pounding it inside, and hit a 3. GW hasn’t gotten a sho off, turning it over on both possessions. Up 15 to up 9 in lead than 90 seconds

Re: GW vs Evansville Game Thread
jf, I'm with you, lets declare the game over at the half! lol
speaking of which, 45 points in a half seems like a recent record for GW. maybe we can bottle some of that. Evansville comes in with a KenPom over 100 spots ahead of us.

Re: GW vs Evansville Game Thread
If Evansville could finish their shots, it would be tied.
Thanks to Mr. Jack, who didn't get enough shots in previous games, we are holding on.

49-40 at first media timeout. Evansville tightened up man to man defense. Maceo with a log 3 and Javy with a FT as only offense in 4 plus minutes

Re: GW vs Evansville Game Thread
Our offensive talent is poor right now so we are going to continually have dry spells. Until Toro and Amir come back this is the way it will be. Nothing anyone can do.
