GW Hoops / GW vs Rhode Island Game Thread

Teams are correctly game planning for BA and JBIV so CC has figured out a way to make them pay with Hunter's 100% FG act. Sweet!

If GW had decided to play the first 4 and last 4 minutes of the half, this would be a total blow-out. But when the focus was there, the team looked good moving the ball around, crashing the boards and controlling the pace.

There is an ad for an oyster bar on the scorers table, which I find odd because I thought Rhode Island was big in to calamari.

Great to see Dean aggressive on offense. Makes a big difference

Hope Hunter continues in second half,his excellent game in the first.
Noel might be good also on very big RI #1, if he starts dominating inside.

From letting him shoot 3s to running plays for him going to the rim, it's clear CC thinks Hunter is that key third scorer.

Did us or RI take a time out just before media timeout?

**Posted by WisconsinColonial2021** 2/22/2023 8:21 pm

Us I think

Not John Wooden clone,but we may need a little bit more on Leggett.

Harris all over Leggett - good move by CC

JB!
Leggett pushes Amir repeatedly to try and GRT free. No call. Tricky tack contact at best,foul against Amir.

Epic collapse…

Maybe the team just doesn’t think 40 minutes a night is enough.

Just inexcusable ball protection and carelessness in the last four minutes. Inexcusable. Is there a team worse at incounding a basketball than this crew? Amazing. Every game. They got bailed out by an even more boneheaded play by Leggett who thankfully launched a long three instead of serving for the foul woth time running out.

I do not know of another GW team that likes to bow big leads. Sad.

Good thing RI hasn’t noticed that Bishop is left handed

**Posted by Tennessee Colonial** 2/22/2023 8:57 pm

A lot of games in OT for a team with a short bench. A few less turnovers is required.

**Posted by jf** 2/22/2023 8:57 pm

Note Leggett has 4 fouls I believe,which JB just exploited. Let's get the 5th.

**Posted by DC Native** 2/22/2023 9:09 pm

Tough last few minutes in regulation, but this team loves OT. 4-0!

Another gutsy win
