Game 2 - AT Lamar, Nov 12th, 8 PM, No TV

[GMUgemini]

Was that one of those bizarre, count the basket/charge calls at the end of the half?

Was there a technical foul called against Lamar? I saw Okiloji shooting a free throw on his own.

 

[Patriot Lawdog]

Solid half. Like what I saw from Moore...Would someone please answer that damn phone?

Yeah, dude dunked it and taunted.

 

[GMUgemini]

Just didn't like how much we put them on the line...10-12 from the FT line is what is keeping them in this game.

Our biggest problem manifested itself here. We're still unable to extend leads. We were up ten with five minutes left in the half, and we go into halftime up eight. This happens frequently against lesser opposition.

I want to see us STEP ON THE THROAT. Come out guns blazing in the second half and put them away early.

Truth.

While historically accurate, let's not pretend like we weren't playing without four of our starters for half of the first half. We are a deep team, but not having Sherrod, Allen, Arledge and Copes even against lesser competition is still pretty significant. I was happy with the way the reserves competed and kept the lead to 8.

If they come out cold to start the second half and give up the lead right away, I'll agree.

Our largest lead was 11. I wouldn't exactly call that letting a lead slip away.

If Copes and Arledge were playing we'd be up by 20, Lamar is a small team. Hopefully we aren't as sloppy the second half. I'd also like to see Jenkins play some if he doesn't get another 2 fouls in 5 seconds. Liked what I saw in Moore and he's played more than I thought he would.

 

[Petey Buckets]

GMUGemini - Didn't say it slipped away, just felt like a wasted opportunity to take a big lead (15+ points) into the half.

GMUTom - Fair point. I'm souring on the coaching staff so these groundhog day games against crappy teams are killing me inside.

 

[GMUgemini]

Hewitt needs to call a timeout. The defense has just lost it.

 

[GMU-B]

I know it has been said here before, but I would love for J2 to be more aggressive.

 

[GMU-B]

Horrible call on BA.

 

[gmutom]

4 fouls on Allen Wonderful.

 

[Bricker]

Ugh. Getting sloppy.

 

[Patriot Lawdog]

Ugh, here we go...BA with 4.

 

[GMU-B]

Does Ric Wilson have some sort of history with Lamar?

No wonder the GT fan suicide rate increased over 30% during the Hewitt years there....
