What possible positives is everyone looking for tonight?
Mine...
1. Ball movement. I don't want to see Harris trying to go 1-3. I want to see kick outs to open shooters.
2. Defend the paint. G'Town has two very good guards, they will get their points. If we are going to win, need to win the battle in the paint.
3. Fortune to shoot. He is far too hesitant in everything that he does on the court (dribbling, passing and shooting). Easiest one for him to overcome is to shoot when open. Let it fly, we have nothing to lose at this point and it will help to loosen things up inside for our bigs and for Cotton from deep.
4. Carson to block and alter shots.
5. Henton to attack the rim.

Fortune and Harris are killing us. We should be up double digits and the game is tied.

Home watching - told Dunk has a decent 3/4 filled crowd tonight. Agree we should be up here but at least we are in a ballgame once again so who knows - this could be a bounce back game for these kids after the debacle vs. NOVA...10 points for Batts so far so that is a good sign.

Anyone see the team lineup pictures as the game started? Question - was that Harris they showed as "Harris" - I thought not...

Sounded like a morgue in the Dunk during the first half. Friars being helped out by some foul trouble on Gtown. Smith-Riveria picked up his 3rd right as he was heating up. |

Maybe they inserted Eddie Morales?
BATTS so far the difference maker here - sure hope he can continue.

Luckily...contrary to a post back at 2:23 am February 14th 2012, Fortune doesn't suck right now...
Rumor has it he's been working on his shot with a fat, former CYO star from Maryland whose name escapes me...

About as ugly as it gets from both sides tonight. Harris has been beyond terrible. Fortune has been sloppy but hit some shots and has stayed more engaged on D.
