Game 2: Richmond

[skydog0784]

Danger, danger, danger time...

[CyCarp]

We cannot make a shot at the rim...

[Mill1634]

Nate has been absolutely brutal. Wish Jacobson would've went out and gotten another guard that can put the ball in the bucket to help out Bowen..

More UNI missing layups. :facepalm

Heise is having a rough one today. Missing open layups, missing open threes, 2-6 on free throws. He's gotta do better throughout the season.

[ceaser150]

No size and no shooters. Gonna be a long year.

Is our old basketball strength coach at Richmond? The guy from overseas? I swear I just saw him on tv lol

[sevelev711]

Missed two wide open threes there. That's the game, right there. That can't happen.

I saw him too

Welp. It was a good first half. Then the offense got much worse despite better ball movement.

[skydog0784]

Nearly impossible to win on the road against a decent team with only two real scoring options. Heise with too little, too late (as others have said). Campbell will get there though I think, first game on the road against a pretty good team. 3 points (2 of which was garbage time) off the bench isn't going to cut it.

We played pretty well in the first half but second half was a disaster.

We're pretty young and thin. Henry available at some point will make a big difference. We'll win some.

[BCPanther]

No defensive concerns at all. Played well on that end.

Gotta put the ball in the bucket. We'll get there.

[CyCarp]

This all comes down to making shots. We ended up being outrebounded by 2 and Richmond has a lot more height. We didn't turn the ball over a ton, we just missed a ton of shots - it seemed like a lot were good looks too.

[GonzoCat]

Pretty typical early season game the last 5-10 years. It's nice knowing before the end of November your at large chances are done. That way you can start prepping early for the only 3-4 games that matter all year.

Agreed. 3 bench points can't happen if this team is going to be successful. Gotta finish shots at the rim. They did, we didn't, that was mostly the difference. Wolf desperately needs to see one go through the net.
