MBBALL NAU Game thread

I’ll be darned. Now I owe my kid an apology after I told him it wouldn’t work on Disney if it wasn’t working on ESPN…

You better apologize!! These kids know everything. Lol

 

[LivingstonNative]

I finally got ESPN to load! I missed half of the first half!!

Griz have had their way all the game, but NAU has quietl crept back to within 5 at the half.

Man. I know we complain incessantly about how ticky tack BsC refs are about fouls, but holy SHIT they missed some obvious ones in that first half.

NAU Shooting 83% from downtown. We gotta stop that S…

Yeah, that stat they put up was wrong. It said NAU was 1/2 and griz were 6-8 or something like that.

Nice feed to Pridgen for a dunk.

I will be there with my 4 year old son...so I bet I will get to be butt in seat for mayyyyybe 5 min of game-time (which is why the 2 games I probably attend just me and him will be this "youth night" game and the faculty/staff game). Cheap tix, no way I'm paying full price for a game that I'll probably be able to half watch!

Welp, made it to about 10 minutes left in first half then had to bail. Was too loud for the little guy.

 

[MikeyGriz]

Griz just can't build that seperation. But they aren't folding either!

 

[LivingstonNative]

That last foul on the GRIZ look like a check to me. But, what do I know watching this game on a phone? I think the crowd kind of agreed with me.

 

[MikeyGriz]

Griz hold on for the W! It got real close, but they never give up the lead and go to 3-0 in conference play. Bring on N. Co.!

 

[BelierPeaux]

Can’t believe State blew a 20 point lead. Yeesh.

Brings a tear to my eye!

Clean block by Money. Refs let shit go all game long and then call THAT one.

 

[Griz til I die]

Kind of a sloppy game from both teams. Bad turnovers, bad rebounding at times, cold spurts, etc. then the refs decided to junk up the game at the end. Offensively I thought we were good for the most part. Defensively there were a couple of breakdowns but nothing too bad.

NAU’s got a good, veteran team that’s played a lot of ball together and been together for a long time. McLaughlin, Tout, and Fort I swear have been there forever. They’ll be in the mix at the end of this, but big win for the Griz at home! Huge one Saturday night!

Also what a choke job by the cats. Blowing a 20 point lead with 12 minutes to go. Would’ve given the Griz sole possession of first place if they would’ve won but instead they pull the choke job of the century at home. Can’t count on those bastards for anything. Brutal week to be a cat fan lol.

That sounds about like the Griz last twelve in the title game vs. Cats last year! That one meant a lot more.

Dunno if anyone was interested in rewatching, but the whole game (even the parts missed in the first half) was viewable on espn+ last night about an hour after the game.
