we are not getting good looks at all. uri cutting off back doors and are very quick defenders on the perimeter. URI's players are extremely quick

He kept us in this game when it could have gotten ugly. interesting interpretation. the 14-0 uri run began when thompson was substituted for husek and occurred entirely while he was on the floor. i'm not saying that we fell into such a hole because of thompson, this occurred because uri is a better team. but again, how thompson "kept us in the game" as we surrendered our lead and created a huge deficit with minimal contribution (2 pts, 1 assist, 1 turnover) while he was out there is yet another head scratcher. if anyone, i would argue floyd or malachi kept us in the game.

I think JF is getting to the point where his positives are starting offset his negatives... he is competing

great half by floyd, offensively and defensively. glad to only be down 8 after that 14-0 uri run. Agreed. And shocking for a guy "lacking in basketball skill" SC State thread: shall i quote your brilliance on husek - who has had a very nice season - from the same thread? floyd is not a terribly skilled player at this juncture, but his raw athleticism makes him a nice change of pace (you selectively forgot that quote from me) that has been very effective for us at times... including today. which is great to see and why i would like to see him get more minutes. as consistently indicated in my posts. your little hard on with my posts is entertaining, if nothing else! it's been fun consistently putting you in your place. and that place is clear... someone who won't give carmody credit and likes taking the contrarian stance on essentially everything. from coaches, to players, to the ad, to other posters. enjoy the game, amigo!

URI defense is pushing our offense way too far away from the hoop and is really pressuring the ball, so even if a backdoor is open, there is no way for the guy with the ball to deliver the pass. Hurley coach show Cox asst coach who was once asst at Georgetown stated that was exactly what he was to practice against the Po

strong start to the half. those first few minutes are always dangerous and are essential - although not sufficient - to staying in the game.

PB seems to be able to get off his shots under the basket even against much taller players--uses the angles well it seems to me

Champion has been a ghost today.
This had the feel of a game where URI could turn it from a. 6-7 point difference to 15+ points in a flash. Need a couple hoops after this timeout or they could put this one away.

URI commits its 7th foul, we've only committed three.
