Wichita State Game Thread

[Gold*]

Wow. Who is this team? I realize we hit shots we have been missing, but we’re also running a coherent offense and playing good defense.

The Wichita big should have fouled out already. He slams Selebangue every damn time on the rebound.

A long way to go, but this is the first pulse we’ve seen in a long time.

The two threes to end the half were beautiful basketball.

I would love to get excited but we’ve blown bigger leads this year. Hopefully the hot shooting continues but if it doesn’t we need to clean up the turnovers.

 

[drboobay]

May break the made threes record and turnover record both I can live with at but teams typically don’t keep the threes up all game.

Yep. Rarely does it happen for 40 minutes.

 

[I.I.]

Compare that tip pass play for a three to Haith’s set plays. Selebangue needs to receive some passes this half. The threes usually don’t continue.

Apparently Konkol was on the bench 22 years ago at WSU, the last time we won here. 2001.

That win was in Phillips first year. I made that road trip. Nearly sold out. Dante Swanson was clutch that night.

This first half reminds me of our first half against Oregon State to start the season. Let’s hope we can improve on that second half performance and get a nice road win!

 

[I.I.]

I thought Peterson coached in 2001 ?

 

['Cane-man]

Buzz 00-01, Phillips 01-02.

 

['Cane-man]

Pritchard!

 

[I.I.]

Pritchard nice decisions.

 

[I.I.]

Buzz 00-01, Phillips 01-02.

December 2001 then I guess. Thanks Cane man !

 

[I.I.]

No threes 2 turnovers no defense. Still ahead.

Dalger needs to stop. I know he hit a couple in the first half but we can do with less Dalger now.

 

[Gmoney4WW]

Dalger is no longer hot from 3, he better not take another.

Jenks on you.

 

[Gmoney4WW]

The run is on.

 

[drboobay]

Ok we are getting back to the Tulsa team I was expecting.

 

[I.I.]

Pritchard back to 4 turnovers already and one assist. That won’t do as a PG. But we don’t have another one.

 

[Gmoney4WW]

Knowing the team wouldn't keep shooting threes so well, Konkol should have made it a mission to find a way to get selebangue open in the middle more.

Agree but not sure Betson any worse. And shoots much better

 

[Loca5174]

Dalger has 3 fouls

 

[TU1NNJ]

Agree but not sure Betson any worse. And shoots much better

Yes but he makes me nervous handling backcourt pressure.

 

[I.I.]

Griffin taking over this game. Looks terrific

 

[TU65alum]

Agree but not sure Betson any worse. And shoots much better

I think Betson is a better point guard.

 

[Gmoney4WW]

Selebangue deciding he's going to force himself inside, through determination & brute force. So far that's working a little better.

 

[TU 1978]

Why is “Embery Thompson” even in the game? He’s awful.

 

[Loca5174]

WHAT A SHOT

 

[Loca5174]

SLAMA JAMA SELEBANGUE

 

[Loca5174]

tHIS WAS A GREAT SHOT

 

[TU65alum]

Let’s not lose this game now.

 

[Loca5174]

thats 4 on Embrey Simpson

 

[Gmoney4WW]

We got fouled on that last 3 attempt.

 

['Cane-man]

TU is playing not to lose. Not good.

 

[TU65alum]

Cmon Tulsa!

 

[I.I.]

Set some screens for Griffin and and get fouled.

 

['Cane-man]

How can they let themselves get trapped so easily?

 

[Loca5174]

Fouls

Ember Simpson - 4
Dalger - 3
Selebangue - 3

 

[t-townpod]

So sad so BAD

 

[drboobay]

I hate the slow down isolation crap. Usually leads to disaster.
