This is why I caution those getting too optimistic about Conference play...its a flawed team that needs to work hard. It works against lesser teams but we are in trouble against good teams if we arent focused..shot selection is quite poor tonight
It's Morgan State, but the start of each half has to generate points from Thiam or Laurent, so when Nigel and Mike Williams come in after 3-4 minutes, we have the ability to extend leads....I think eventually, the plus/minus of what our roster looks like with Williams and Nigel on the court is likely becoming a factor.
Thiam needs to get some shot attempts or get to the FT line early in the 2nd half, so he can extend this lead and then the guards can finish adding to the lead to it gets into double digits....Thiam needs more minutes regardless, he's the only reasonable shooter we can throw at teams right now.

His strength is in getting to the hole. If we had a strong 2 (Mike is shooting well this year), such as Thiam, and even a 3 who could draw the defense out, Corey would look all world. He would drive and dish, but as yet we don't have guys who consistently bury it. I think as the season goes on, Mike will develop a more reliable shot because he is working on it in practice (and worked on it in the offseason), and I hope Thiam learns how to move behind the arc to position himself for a quick release.
My sense watching Corey is that due to his lackadaisical passing beyond the arc and sporadic shooting, he'll be back next year. This makes me happy because I love that guy and what he brings to the team. Another year of growth and recruiting and we could have something special. Sa has a huge upside, too.
Great start to the thread. Posters make comments but never post the score for those not watching/listening to the game.
What I don't get, though, is how far he's fallen off from last year.
I mean, he wasn't a very good outside shooter last year, either, shooting .315 (41/130).... but that's a ton better than .067 (1/15).
Totally agree. He's good, but he's not NBA level. Maybe he can be, but I think it would come from staying at RU all four years and continuing to be coached up by Pike. Honestly, I hope in the end that's what happens. Would be the best for him and for the team.
Can someone at the game tell them to plug the camera back in?
