:no:

First of all, he wasn't using the elliptical machine. It was clearly stated he was on a weight machine.

Second of all, why does it matter?

 

[CloneIce]

Good thing we are a second half team... I feel a comeback!

 

[SpokaneCY]

I don't think the refs have been bad this far. We can't complain (or shouldn't complain)

If they called half the fouls some of our fans whine about, every team we've played would have fouled out...

 

[GrindingAway]

I can't understand why Melvin does everything right to get the shot but can't finish if it isn't 't a dunk.

I'll probably get flamed for this, but he's a really really good third option. He's outstanding in some areas, but he's very limited in others. We need other people to step up and fill in for Georges.

That and the other team not shooting at a ridiculous pace.

 

[klamath632]

Given that stat, our defense is doing pretty well holding them to 36 points.

Doh, you're right. My bad, the FG number includes the threes, I guess. So it's 14-27 against 9-28.

Maybe she was just doing a good deed by turning off the TV on an unused machine?

possibly, but I doubt it.

Hogue is doing fine.

Yes he is! As a garbage man. He gets a lot of putbacks on missed baskets or loose balls.

He is not scoring out of an offensive set though. It's not like he's posting up in there and we throw it in to him and he scores. He's getting garbage baskets, like he has all year for us. That's his job and he does it well.

Hot damn, guys, it's been all Hogue, all the time. Kane and Ejim need to keep up. LET'S GO STATE. Don't let John Walters be threatened by Spike Lee for nothing (for those not following on the radio, a few minutes ago, Spike Lee told Walters to get out of his seat - while Walters is doing the half time show). Walters said he wasn't going anywhere and that Spike Lee is short. cool:

Second of all, why does it matter, dumas?

I was giving cowgirl crap. Jebus. Are we not allowed to have friends and give them **** on CyFan?

Secondly, real mature with the name calling.

 

[TheHelgo]

Mojo change. Just grabbed my stuff and went to the man cave. Watching here has resulted in all of our recent heartbreaking losses. Perhaps its time to break that trend. GO CLONES!!

 

[yler4cy]

Monte needs to guard Napier.

 

[CyArob]

I BELIEVE THAT WE WILL WIN!

 

[cowgirl836]

is it time for rum yet? I'm afraid I'll knock it over.

 

[CapnCy]

We will scratch and crawl back, just hoping the timing is right.

Love Naz, Monte, and Hogues energy and passion they are showing.

And, like all games, need to make our fts.

 

[Cy83ag]

Really have enjoyed all the in-depth analysis of our game by the studio crew.

 

[GrindingAway]

I switched from my lucky Cyclone beer glass to my lucky beer mug.

Feel free to give this post a thumbs up after we come out in the second half on fire and win this.

 

[heitclone]

Melvin is not playing timid, they are clogging the lane up with tall guys.

He's not attacking them though. He's gone up really really weak every time. They have some length but no one intimidating. Going up weak lets them be shot blockers. Kane finally started driving and drawing fouls. That's why Ejim needs to do as well.

 

[swarthmoreCY]

If they called half the fouls some of our fans whine about, every team we've played would have fouled out...

Probably not before the other team though.

 

[Final42b]

Half court game is really tough for us without Georges. Gotta get out and run when we can.

 

[BenEClone]

If UConn keeps plugging the middle I look for us to drive and kick. But the kick out has to be before we're surrounded. Also could drive and stop short like Morris has done.
