Georgetown Game thread 12/31/2016

[muskieman]

I think the early fouls made X play a little soft because every time they became aggressive the one ref called a foul. 22% from the three in the second half will not be good

[mumuskie87]

Both teams with 13 fouls in 1H.
Peak has zero
JP has 3
If the whistle keeps blowing in 2H, it will come down to who can stay on the court.

[mumuskie87]

When X has shot 40% or better from 3 (total of 6 games) , the average margin of victory is 22 points.
In their other 5 wins, they have shot 24% from 3 and the average margin of victory is 7.6 points.

Need a big half from Trey. Need to foul less and play better D.Too many easy hoops for them

2nd half adjustments will be key.
Need to figure how to defend the "Princeton" back cuts that GT executed well in the 1H.
And someone needs to D up on Peak. 16 pts in 1H.

[muskieman]

good start except for the tre miss but 2nd chance brings up and 1. X is trailing by 4

[muskieman]

JP has 4 fouls but still aggressive

[Xavier2005]

Xavier is NOT defending the middle very well , thus Georgetown is scoring easily on X by driving the middle. where is the Defense???

[skyhops]

Gaston needs to catch the ball and we can't concede layups

[muskieman]

We need Tre and we need X to stop the straight line drives. With JP having 4 fouls this game is not going X's way. That early foul on the inbound pass in the first half will haunt X if JP can not stay in game.
