MBB vs EMU Open Thread

One of the announcers sounds like he's on speakerphone. 

The announcers on the Villanova game keep talking about extending the game and I'm yelling "No, end the game!"

I don't have ESPNews.

The refs seem to be allowing quite a bit of contact. Jett was hit on his 3pt attempt, and T. Williams was hit on his layup attempt.

When the announcers talk about Bates’s journey from Memphis to Eastern, I feel like they’re leaving out a big detail.

I'm looking for Llewellyn to be a bit more effective on offense tonight. 

Kobe with a little defense!

I have ESPN, ESPN2 and Big Ten Network.  

I do NOT have ESPN News or ESPNU.

Boo!

EMU can’t seem to miss right now. 

Refs of the nova game really don't want me to watch.

Damn, I thought it'd be hard to find a basketball player skinnier than Kevin Durant, but Emoni Bates says - "hold my lunch". 

That Eastern PG is a heckuva ballplayer 

Seems like TWill has some strong Brandon John’s energy so far this year

It’s not that UM is playing bad, but more EMU is better than most think.  

Looks like another year where a lack of speed at the PG will be an issue

We aren’t a very good defensive team at this point in the season 

Missed the first 7 minutes while they waited to run off the last 0.2 secs in the prior game 😂

Bates on the offensive end just picks a spot and stands there 

Kobe still missing those wide open 3s, but good ball movement there.

T Will is making some good decisions with the ball - an in rhythm 3, and two pinpoint passes. He also has about 4 rebounds already in this game. 

2 3-point-lines are causing some of these shots to be longer than necessary.

Bufkin still isn’t a good outside shooter, I wish he would drive to the basket more. 

Lol, that lay-up was not going to go in, so thanks, Emoni.

I think TWill has every rebound so far 

T Williams is balling tonight! Gotta hit those free throws, though.

Guys are getting blown by on the perimeter 

It’d be great if we practiced free throws 

Yeah, those Zavier Simpson vibes are definitely true for Dug!

Why have they taken multiple 3s from well beyond the NBA line? 

Dug made that harder than it had to be 

I don’t think I like this lineup. 

The guards can't stay in front of anyone... In the lane kicking to open guys 

Man nobody can stay in front of anyone. 

Put Hunter back in please.

Dickinson and Jett have been on the bench too long. 

With beilein, we never gave up offensive rebounds, we made free throws, played fundamental defense, and we didn't foul. 

All of that seems to be gone. I'm not sure what the staple strengths of Howard's teams are..

Baker needs some work. 

Hunter shouldn’t be sitting this long. The bench has been brutal 

It’s going to be a long season. 

Pretty sure the no Hunter/no Jett lineup is not going to work.
