[Powerful Pirates]

Let’s goooo!!🏴‍☠️

 

[SHUSA]

fitting posh hits a 3 to open the game lol.

fitting posh hits a 3 to open the game lol.

After Dawes left him wide open

 

[TomWall]

Clougherty? Yikes.

 

[IronKaz1]

of course POSH who cant shoot a 3, can now shoot a 3

 

[DrummerJerry]

And he is left wide open again. We will make him look like an All American today.

 

[SHUSA]

even more fitting posh hits two 3s in the opening minutes. our defense is out of sorts right now. look sleepy.

 

[DrummerJerry]

Will we ever learn to defend the 3????

 

[SHUSA]

lol wusu and posh nailing 3s in an offensive game. who had that ?

 

[Gohall129]

Seems like we’d be undefeated this year if we had posh

 

[SHUSA]

Kadary richmond CLOSING OUT WITH HIS HANDS DOWN. how many times do we have to see it? maybe hes tired right?

 

[HallBoy32]

Bediako needs to learn when to not contest a shot when he doesn’t need to.

Gives up so many free ORebs when he leaves his feet and his man.

 

[IronKaz1]

looks like Butler is doing the Georgetown method of offense vs us, shoot all 3's

 

[TomWall]

Defense non-existent on both ends so far.

 

[SHUSA]

effort was left on the bus. no defense, everyone looking at the butler airball while bediako gets the ball thrown off his face, wusu getting manhandled on a routine rebound.

usually defense travels. times like these im happy sha is on the sideline who is likey furious .

 

[IronKaz1]

we gotta try to get one of these guys in foul trouble early because they dont f'ing miss

 

[NYC Pirate]

Down 17-13 under 15 minutes. We may have to tighten up the defense. Lol. Butler still riding the wave from the Marquette game. All things being equal we are not in bd shape right now.

 

[JTSHU]

Kadary falling asleep on the wing

 

[chickenbox]

Ball movement great from both teams

 

[SHUSA]

After Dawes left him wide open

usually i would agree, but if im shu im ok losing the game from posh 3 pointers. we want him shooting that

 

[IronKaz1]

see the whole "let down" games are a bunch of BS

 

[SHUSA]

ugh 2 offensive rebounds with nothing to show. bediako missed a wide open wusu down low.

 

[SHUSA]

anyone notice the change in effort after the timeout? SHA

 

[chickenbox]

Good D and blocks by bediako without fouling

 

[ShoreGold]

Be patient!! They are going to take this game over now!

 

[SHUSA]

richmond closes out with a hand up and.... they miss. dont doubt for one second sha didnt hammer that in the timeout.

weathered a great opening by butler and shook off the sleepiness. different team after the timeout. still a strange game. richmond, wusu, posh combine for FIVE 3s lol.

 

[TomWall]

Posh looks like a different player on O.

 

[IronKaz1]

Posh looks like a different player on O.

yes cuz i think he wants 2 shove it to us for not taking him

 

[NYC Pirate]

Now up 22-19. A better job defensively. Posh is on. Richmond can shoot all day if he wants. Bediako very active today. We look like an experienced team so far.

 

[Hall-O-Daze]

This has to be our fastest start to a game this season.

 

[chickenbox]

Foul situation favoring us. Kadary for three and lead. Dawes with the nice fast drive he's been getting past few

 

[SHUSA]

yes cuz i think he wants 2 shove it to us for not taking him

think he plays with an edge against guys like wusu and richmond.

 

[SHUSA]

This has to be our fastest start to a game this season.

lol these guys are thinking they cant let posh be offensive story of this game

 

[SHUSA]

shu having a historic 3pt shooting game and only up 3. we all know this is not gonna last for us so hopefully defense can pick up in the 2nd half. cause right now its NBA

 

[TomWall]

Dawes cold so far. Gotta cover Brooks.

 

[Hall-O-Daze]

I don’t remember the last time I saw in a game this many threes raining from both sides.

 

[Gohall129]

yes cuz i think he wants 2 shove it to us for not taking him

He did the same thing when they played St John’s. Came out hot then went scoreless in the second half

 

[Gohall129]

Nice seeing Sanders hit some 3s

 

[IronKaz1]

this french guy pierre is smashing us 2, gotta cover him

 

[HallBoy32]

One of these teams is going to cool off. This is a completely unsustainable pace.

Praying it’s not us.
