Creighton Game Thread 2-13-19

Postby mumuskie87 » Wed Feb 13, 2019 8:12 pm

22 point game at Creighton.
X has not lost a season series to Creighton.
Split the 1st 4 years and sweep them last year.
Need a win.

X playing D like they are ranked 198th (per Ken Pom) and ranked last in D in the BE conference play - which they are.

X dominating the paint.
Need to keep feeding Jones and Hankins.

Hankins is a terrible defender.

Goodin with 2 fouls with 10 left.
X up by 3 - 22 to 19

Need the scorekeeper to add 3 more fouls on Goodin so he doesn't come back in.
X plays better when he is watching, not playing.
Marshall and Scruggs have a combined 8 assists and 0 TO's.
Nice job guys

Gillen just lauded Creighton for going to a zone defense. X missed 5 consecutive shots. Wait a minute. Broering is against an X & Os guy on the bench, so I'm assuming commenting as well. I'm confused with the results of the change in defense though. It worked, at least for a while, which is the purpose of the change in D. How can that be? Gillen will rue the day he called for the change if Rick Broering Wooden disagrees.

If Marshall keeps banging the backboard with the same velocity on the brick trey he just threw up, I predict he'll be the 1st player to shatter one which isn't a dunk attempt.
