    Did they just hand a microphone and a few drinks to someone in the stands?​

    Bowen is not the greatest defensive player and can easily be mismatched against height. He makes up for some of that with his quickness and smarts/instincts. Playing with one wheel off takes that away from him as well. We improved because he just couldn't go 100% and that tips everything off with our team focused defense.

    And it took Belmont shooting 65% in the first half to beat that group.

    I hate we lost. But this team really fought. Down 36-51 5 minutes into the second half and kept fighting.

    One team shoots 14-31 from 3, the other shoots 5-16. In games like that, what’s the typical margin of victory?

    In terms of ppp,
    Team A has 16 possessions with a 0.94 ppp.
    Team B has 31 possessions with a 1.35 ppp.

    We won the turnover battle, which is trend for us and seems like it is becoming our identity.
    I suppose we can shift our balance and defend outside more, but that will increase inside scoring. I tend to think with our personnel, we should emphasize turning the ball over even a little more. Take it before they have a chance to shoot.

    This seems purely circumstantial.

    It reminds me of when people would say our team played better with AJ off last year. In spurts it may be true, but over the aggregate it's clear he(and Anderson) have been loads important over the course of the season.

    Is it a strain? Really makes me wonder what the best way to handle this is. Would it be best to give him a week or two to get to 100%? You hate losing your best player, but at the end of the day, having him in March is the most important.

    You figure when he leaves without an obvious on floor injury its either REALLY bad or minor.

    It took them shooting 65% in the first half to beat our freshmen and a walk on. Can't wait for the game up here.

    We're more than fine. On to Wednesday.

    Trainer Don Bishop was using one of those electric massagers on Bowen's leg at time-outs all last game, maybe the game before.

    And after all that it was the free throws that were the difference in the game. Ugh.
    But great effort from the guys. We could've folded early.

    Good effort to make it a game. Have work to do to get to that critical top 4 seed for Arch Madness
