Really happy for players and staff. They needed this.
We play better in the “bubble.”

HC used 10 players. 8 scored and 9 had rebounds. We out rebounded the pards and their 7' big man. BTW he got away with planting 2 or more elbows into the chest off his defender every time he got the ball in the lane.

Dorsey was a disrupter on defense. Things changed when he was inserted in the second half. Coach Nelson, please take note. Agree.
Don't get me wrong, I really like Luc and think he has a huge upside.
But.....did you notice how we made our run with him on the bench?
I do not think that was an accident.

That has to be the reason he's getting those minutes - he shoots so poorly - hard to believe he's a scholarship level talent - can we agree that his offense is an enigma ?

Boy--some different rotations tonight. Did that make the difference or was it all just attributable to Gates and Montgomery It was about having people on the floor that are willing to defend-he still doesn’t have the right combinations but better than previous games

Really hoping ND can hit that first perimeter shot. I like having him on the floor.
Big kick out pass by GG to Bo for the 3, when GG got bottled up in the paint

No, really. I notice you did not post that comment when HC was shooting well...just saving it for select moments. HC shot only 58% from the FT line tonight, but Gates and Martindale did hit 75% tonight (9 of 12) and that does not stink. For the season Humphrey (88%), Luc (75%), and Townsel (71%) do not "stink" at the FT line. If you want to lob out general condemnations, please give a reason...any reason to support/explain it.

Montgomery was the difference tonight imo....Gates was tremendous obviously but Bo breaking out put us ovah the top

It’s the first time the team looked like it did at the end of last years shortened schedule. Maybe it was the injuries, maybe coaching, but it was together tonight. Let’s hope it continues.

Gates was (according to the announcers) the MVP. However, I don't think there was only one player who made the difference tonight. Nice to see our team play as a team for 40 minutes. They almost got that "magic" 2 points/minute and that is a very good thing. On to the next game!

Best got let it go if facts do not play a role that can influence either side in an argument. [But if you never give a reason, IMHO, that does take away value from your post.]

Even better to get that third win. I know, it was the first PL win. Maybe an away game win could be next.

rgds, you love to count the D.3 wins - well, many of us do not Does it make any difference to you that those opponents do not count the game as a loss as it’s an exhibition for them ? I agree with those that say ‘well done guys on a great effort for ur first D.1 win’ !

Post by rgs318 on Jan 7, 2022 21:57:30 GMT -5
No "love" involved. Actually I count them because they do count. I don't fixate on the division of the opponent...only the result of the game. The teams in a lower division do have the option of counting the game as an exhibition and, if they do, that is up to them.

I checked the HC Basketball Schedule site. The record is 3-12.
