BS Tourney Griz vs the green birds Thursday 11AM

[cclarkblues]

The game is indeed at 1 PM :!: I'm guessing Payton was led astray by Pluto's insistence in showing all times as Eastern...yah got to be sure all those Griz fans in Jersey don't miss tipoff. :roll:

Then wouldn't it be 3:00 Eastern time? Looks like Peyton is doing the Time Warp again (It's just a jump to the left...).

But remember, it's 11AM somewhere.

11 am here currently in beautiful scenic El Cajon, CA. 72 degrees. Working to a high of 77. Partly Cloudy. Winds freshening out of the west at 5 mph. No chance of rain.

You're killin' me Smaltz... Crawling up to 40 here today. You ever think about winter adoptions?

Crap

be prepared, shots are not going to drop in the empty,tunnel like, arena. Must play def, get turnovers,pound ball inside...again & again. ReBound! as shooting will be dismal for at least first half. Beginning of phase 3, get it done..Go Griz!

I just tuned into pregame. Nice of the locals to support an event their City is sponsoring. What a damn joke this is. I know, I'd hate to play in front of so few fans. I beg and plead to Boise residents, please support your city hosting the tournament. This is so disappointing.

Let's go GRIZ!!!!

 

[Potomac Griz]

Ahh right off the bat we have mistakes. They have Besovic starting instead of Krslovic.

And for UND they have Avants (who has a torn groin and isn't playing) as starting.

Cravens corrected them on Avants at least.

 

[mtgrizrule]

Damn, 2 turnovers in their 1st 3 possessions by the GRIZ. Fortunately, UND has matched that.

 

[mtgrizrule]

make that 3 turnovers in 5 possessions.

 

[mtgrizrule]

Falls and Pridgett in at the 15:35 mark. 10-9 bad guys.

 

[mtgrizrule]

Damn, Oguine with a blocked shot!!!

 

[Grizfan-24]

So far, breakneck pace. Lots of shots, especially early in possessions. UM settling for a lot of perimeter stuff early. Ragged and sloppy. This game at this pace will challenge the WSU-ISU game yesterday.

UND is hitting their perimeter shots.

 

[CFallsGriz]

Anyone else have Pluto seizing up every 30 seconds??

 

[grizpsych]

I feel like we are about to pull away.

 

[mtgrizrule]

Get Nicholas in there. UND is thin on the frontline and an energetic Nicholas is primed for a few dunks!!

 

[grizpsych]

Anyone else have Pluto seizing up every 30 seconds??

Nope. But, give it a little time. It seems like the pluto app takes awhile to find the correct band width to stream at.

 

[mtgrizrule]

Turnovers are abundant by the GRIZ!

 

[grizpsych]

Man we are taking some low quality shots without anyone in position for a rebound.

 

[Grizfan-24]

Here is a take... Won’t call it hot...

With this pace, hard to play lock down defense. You depend on greatly as an offense with this philosophy that you’ll make shots. Right now it seems harder to get good defensive rotations because UND is pressing the pace. Lots of open looks.

UND is willing to chuck up 40 threes in this game it appears.

 

[mtgrizrule]

We need to challenge Dale Jones and get him in foul trouble. That might be the only defense we have for him.

 

[grizpsych]

Dale Jones versus the Griz.

 

[mtgrizrule]

There is no way that UND can keep this up!!! Their strategy is, just shoot as many 3's as possible and hope for the best.
