MAC Quarterfinals: vs. Akron (3/11)

[Diemilkweed]

THey called the illegal screen!

Thats' the same thing that got Jackson his first 3.

[Hammer]

Got give credit where it’s due and Swingle had two good minutes to start the half.

[hammb]

We even had an offensive set where we moved without the ball, made the extra pass, and got a quality look. What the hell, let's try that some more.

[BillyLP]

Plowden on one right now.

[mbenecke]

With 12 to play in regulation, Akron leads 48-44.

Plowden is carrying this team right now, with Juice only having 2 points so far.

[Hammer]

Thank god for Plowden. It is going to be so sad to see him go.

[Diemilkweed]

Holy cow- we went zone and got a turnover.

We changed thign and did so competently.

We changed thign and did so competently.

We did that once or twice earlier in the year. Can't stay in it long though, we are not a good zone team at all once the opponent gets used to seeing it.

I wish we could play well for 40 minutes but this is the bg basketball we know with huger. At least we're in the game

[BillyLP]

Justin Turner barely putting weight on his foot on the bench. Such a bummer for him.

[hammb]

We can't play well for 40 mins because we don't have a scheme or anything. We basically wait for somebody to get hot then feed that guy the ball.

If we get stops and push in transition it looks better as well.

We're in this one because plowden has gotten hot. Still not really doing much different. Playing with more energy though.

[mbenecke]

With 7:41 to play in regulation, Akron leads 57-53.

Please make free throws and take care of the basketball down the stretch.

I completely agree but the energy is different and we need to start that way.

Can we hit our free throws please

[Hammer]

Plowden has to get some help or this is going down hill.

Gotta love what C. Turner has been showing. He’s going to be a great player.
