Game 11: AT Wright State University, Tuesday, December 23rd, 7 PM, NO TV

[gmutom]

Two give-and-gos in one game? Who the hell are we tonight?

 

[CHRISTOPHER JAMES JOLLAY]

Patrick Holloway--4 assists. Marko--9 points.

Hewitt has found himself a rotation and an offense. It may have taken external circumstances to do it, but damned if he hasnt done it.

 

[Washingtonian]

Get a 13 point lead and call timeout, really Hewitt?

 

[DeepValue]

Time out?? Why??

Gotta like what we're seeing but I'm going to wait to see us play some A10 teams before I get overconfident.

 

[KAOriginal]

I am smelling a 1 year extension......

 

[CHRISTOPHER JAMES JOLLAY]

Jesus God. I took Mason plus seven but this is astounding.

Must not...let expectations...rise...too...far

 

[GMUgemini]

How much of this resurgence is just Thompson getting acclimated to D1? He seems to be involved in just about every play offensively or defensively.

His play has been huge, but I think it's more the ball movement on offense than anything else. The guys appear focused and locked in to what they are doing.

 

[GMUSig03]

EXTEND HEWITT before another BCS team steals him away!

But seriously, this is now 4 straight games (not counting Catawba, since it was basically practice) of excellent basketball all around. Correction, 3.5 games lets see how this continues to unfold (as Halloway surely sets a career high with his 5th assist)

Wright State has a better RPI than 7 A10 Teams

Glad somebody else pointed that out. Some people tried to dismiss Iona because of their conference, but a good team is a good team. Now we just need to figure out how to close this one out.

 

[DeepValue]

Hewitt asking for continuation about five seconds after Pat got fouled. Uh yeah.

Good to know, but not very impressive when I watch them play or look at their record. I think mid table A10 teams will be tougher - maybe a lot tougher.

Why not ask for it after the horseshit continuation they gave Wright State on the previous possession? That wasn't even close to a shooting foul.

Good question. I'd say 35-40%. But man, Marko at the four, Holloway off the bench passing the ball, Jackson starting...there's some mojo working here.

Copes=Energy sucking vampire

 

[polepino]

...isn't half time supposed to be over by now?

Edit: Damn my feed got stuck on ads wtf.

 

[DeepValue]

Becoming a fan of Isaiah Jackson. Mason needs more players like him. He seems to play smart and contribute many ways.

 

[GMURaider]

Did Copes have negative energy? And what is negative energy?

What do you call his multiple suspensions from the team, lack of leadership and tendencies to get into foul trouble?

If that's not negative energy what the hell IS?

 

[gmutom]

I'd be able to leave this game early if Holloway would knock down some of these open 3s.

 

[Washingtonian]

Holloway needs to stop putting up 3's, he has missed at least 4 straight.
