Took us about 4 mins to score our first point but once we did it was a pretty entertaining first half. Way too many turnovers became easy baskets but I like watching us play ub. They don't guard anybody either so some nice dunks by lilard and alcegaire.

Joseph has shot more tonight than I remember but he's made some so I suppose it's OK...

Who is this Lillard. Lol. His best game of the year.

BG up by 2 with 2 min left. BG could win and have 3 teams at 6-12. 4 teams could also be tied for 2nd. Tie breakers are going to work overtime tonight.

In his defense he's barely played...since the other guys are vastly outperforming him.

Lilard should have been playing more for awhile now. He's getting better. Needs to work on the 3 PT shot though so teams can't just play off him...

This team can build around Worrell, Wiggins and Lillard. By the time these 3 are Seniors we could have something special. Get a true PG and an outside shooter. Get rid of some of the dead weight. 2017-2018 could be a special year.

Down by 1 under 30 seconds and with the ball. Parker needs to take the shot. His last home game. Nothing to lose.

That sums up the last 14 games. Turn the ball over on an inbounds pass. Smh

If I had to bet I would that Caldwell is the starting point guard by MAC tournament.

Also 2-3 other roster spots will open up for new recruits.

61, Rodrick Caldwell is highly skilled, quick and a leader at PG. Signed early and has had a tremendous year for the state's best- or one of the bes-t D 1 teams at Huber Heights Wayne. He is quite a complete player w a bright future. In the eyes of some, he had developed into one of the very best PGs in the Midwest.

Go Falcons!

That's high praise. I saw him play once and while I wasn't overly impressed and it was just one game it was clear he's a very fast athlete and he's already playing with bg level talent.

Globe, he plays best in two situations in particular: when the game is on the line and when the opponent is top flight.

That is a very very good sign at age 17. When you hit 10 of 11 FT with game on line for example. When you break a press and thread a perfect pass to win. When you hit the dagger three late in the fourth.

All of that must translate to a much better level of competition with all the wear/tear and physicality of D 1 basketball. There will be a big learning curve like with most MAC freshmen especially perimeter players.

But the guy can play.

Go Falcons!
