That's what happens when you don't have a true point guard down the stretch - bunch of undersized "twos", with questionable judgement in crunch time and no length to defend against the opponent's desperation 3's.

oruvoice Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 I'm encouraged. Stood toe-to-toe with a pretty solid SEC team today and almost got the W. Still a VERY young team and they will improve/gel...I hope. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EagleManiac Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 It's easy to be frustrated by another blown lead. But at the end of the day, we took an SEC team to overtime. I think this team is more encouraging than we're giving credit for. I read in a recap that Aaron Anderson left the game with a leg injury? Did Scott say anything about it in the postgame?

TrueBlue82 Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 I just watched the game from my recording of CBS Sports. While we definitely should have won the game, the team just ran out of gas in the last five minutes and in OT. We really played only six guys (three others played 7 minutes or less), and Jalen and E-Man both logged 44 of the 45 minutes. Kris Martin played 36 minutes, even though it was pretty obvious that he was not 100%. Unfortunately, the lack of healthy bodies does not bode well for the rest of the games in St. Thomas, playing again today and then Monday. But, for the long run, I like a lot of what I see in this team. I definitely think we have the talent to contend in the Summit. E-Man is the real deal. Some of his moves reminded me of Obi and his rebounding skills are outstanding - and he's a freshman playing in his first five games at the collegiate level!
