Creighton Gamethread

[SHUSA]

at Creighton. How many minutes do we think we're gonna watch until we step away and enjoy our saturday?

im putting my guess in at 15 mins. a lot of times these games are blow outs even with our good teams.

 

[SHUSA]

15 mins of real time not game time lol

 

[Robot_Man]

Looking forward to never having to deal with Kalkbrenner again after this season.

One of those games where it's not what we do but what creighton does or doesn't do. Let's hope they don't shoot lights out..

Think we do have the athletic advantage FWIW.

 

[ivyhillparkk1963]

Wusu and Jenkins not in starting lineup anyway. Don't know if available

 

[SHUSA]

COLEMAN OUT!!

 

[chickenbox]

COLEMAN OUT!!

[SHUSA]

[chickenbox]

Good news bad news:

We are up 4-3

Work for whoever has to update that minutes leading in the BE thread

 

[SHUSA]

creighton -15 another layup

 

[SHUSA]

our defense surprisingly looks good early

 

[chickenbox]

Pretty wild we have all six points on three pure, long 2s

 

[chickenbox]

ANY GIVEN SATURDAY!

 

[SHUSA]

that wasnt a foul on middleton.

 

[IronKaz1]

if only Dual used that nice shot all year

 

[ivyhillparkk1963]

Creighton 0 for from 3
How long does that last

 

[SHUSA]

feel like this is the first time our long athletic defense is matching up well

 

[SHUSA]

lol okorofor received the ball in the paint, dribbled in much worse position, then somehow airballed a hook shot by like 4 feet

 

[IronKaz1]

why did he take Dual out after going 3-3???????

 

[NYC Pirate]

The team looks pretty good today.

 

[SHUSA]

why did he take Dual out after going 3-3???????

i would have just let it ride cause it's early, but be accurate. he got blocked after a really bad turnover. not enough to take him out but not like he was on fire

 

[NYC Pirate]

So, these mystery injuries appear a lot.

 

[chickenbox]

So great to see getting into the paint and making cuts to the basket. Why now instead of all season standing outside the three-point line? No idea. But better late than never. Hope we don't forget it by next game (or next half).

 

[IronKaz1]

3-3 for Dual is on fire haha

 

[chickenbox]

play like this down some of our more proven players demonstrates to me why the narrative that this is a team of talentless sods who couldn't possibly perform better is cope to explain away horrific results

 

[SHUSA]

this game is what Sha had envisioned but these mid range shots are gonna stop falling

 

[LBP43]

Scotty bringing it today

 

[ivyhillparkk1963]

Dont know if we can keep it up but To all you Coleman gone next year doomers? Best 16 minutes of season so far without him...

 

[Jcordasco1952]

COLEMAN OUT!!

Tell me you don’t want to play for this tram
anymore without telling me you don’t want to play for this team anymore.

 

[ivyhillparkk1963]

Ashworth hit that same shot at buzzer last year putting game into OT

 

[chickenbox]

Impressive half. Creighton started getting it going late. Don't know if we can do it in the second. But putting this half firmly in the moral victory column!

 

[NYC Pirate]

Dual, Middleton and Felton had quality shots. Higher percentage than usual.

 

[chickenbox]

Okorafor leading scorer at the half!

 

[LeftCoastPirates]

Arguably the best 14 1/2 minute stretch of the BE season followed by 27-6 run since.

 

[hallstorm]

So much for the momentary half of good basketball.

Back to weaving and building orange brick roads.

 

[Wolf11642]

Did Whalen go out for a snack break the first five minutes of that half?

 

[Seton75]

So much for the momentary half of good basketball.

Back to weaving and building orange brick roads.

we missed some decent shots

 

[Halldan1]

A poster made a major mistake in this thread. I do not want that on the board and have deleted all references to it.

Let's move on and accept his apology.

 

[IronKaz1]

I own it, and I'm sorry......

 

[dehere23]

The 2nd half is going how most of us thought, but the score may not get out of hand if McDermott plays his second unit for an extended period here, and perhaps we can get back into it. But the first half was nice to see Dual and Okorafor give us some good play.
