Anyone happen to find a backdoor stream for this game? The usual don’t seem to have it listed.
It’s $20 for three games. Basically the cost of taking the Metro to three games.

Jess Settles is the commentator?!?!?!? Nooooooooooo.
I’m still bitter that he clotheslined someone (Kwame?) on an offensive rebound with no call that gave Iowa the win over us in the NCAAs. Even Dickie V was incredulous about the no call after the game.
That guy is right up there with Lynn Greer and Larry Lembo and JJ Redick in infamous bad call/BS history.

On pace for 80 fouls. Calling it tight

Really sloppy ball protection and lazy passes.

Way too many turnovers. That is a continuing problem for certain players. I see less playing time for them if they keep it up.

Well we look jet lagged, though it's not a long flight at all and was two days ago.
Really bad passes, more energetic team.
Don't know what's going on on the court, but maybe LSF can explain. McNeese player seemed to
be going after us at halftime.
Need major adjustments. Getting killed on boards and second and third chance opportunities.
We have the ability to turn it around, but doesn't feel good right now.

McNeese is as athletic and aggressive any team well ever play. Have to tighten up the turnovers (obviously) and we can wear them down. I doubt McNeeae will hit quite as many tough, contested shots as they did in the first half, but we can’t give them the easy ones off turnovers.
We got up 6 and then got a bit complacent with the ball, then played the final few minutes on our heels. Need to get our confidence back and be the aggressors again.

13 first half turnovers (mostly by our guards) and very weak interior defense has put us in an 8 point halftime hole.

Yes - starting with Marshall. He’s an accident waiting to happen handling the ball in transition - especially against such an aggressive press.

The most frustrating part of that half was that we were in the double bonus with 10 minutes to go, but didn’t get to the line enough because we kept turning it over before getting into our offense.

Wonder if we should play Castro and Hunger together for a few minutes and see.

17 turnovers already. Can't win games like this.

I normally wait to check this board until after the games, but this cannot be overstated.

They're way hungrier than we are.
Unless we somehow right this ship,we're apparently not as good as we think.

Marshall not helping team at all. Sad. Down 68-52

We’re getting exposed pretty badly. Time to reset expectations…

I was in the stands in the IOW% game.
Settles cursing us again.

Lack of a point guard is really hurting us.

19 turnovers for us and 5 for them. 70-52. Hmmmm. Oh well.

This big guy Machar who keeps grabbing every loose ball or offensive rebound while off balance and making these like twisting, crazy shots around the basket has 15 points and 14 boards.
They’ve only played 2 D1 games. They lost to Santa Clara and he only played 6 minutes with 2 points and no rebounds. And against Louisiana (who they killed), he had 2 points and 3 rebounds.
This performance by him is unreal and unexpected. If he’s gonna play like this consistently and this isn’t just some crazy fluke, they’ll be a top 50 team. He’s playing out of his mind.
