Griz vs. San Jose State

[grizzlyjournal]

I recognize that Montana's "time-adjusted" home game vs. San Jose State is an afterthought, much less a thought at all... bumped to 1 p.m. by tonight's playoff game vs. Delaware. But I'll be at the hoops game vs. the 5-3 Spartans, where the Griz are 1-point underdogs with a 48% probability of winning. Hoping the Griz can use their second-half effort vs. the Wolfpack as a starting point vs. the Spartans. Go GrizBB.

We will be there. Then a quick trip home to add clothes (Lots!), and back for football! Go Griz BB and FB!

Let’s get after em!

Money is early.
Defense is playing terrific.

 

[Big Sage]

Exceptional defense so far

 

[mtgrizrule]

Thomas with a few nice assists so far.
Moody isn't getting many scoring opportunities so far.
They're really focusing on him.

 

[mtgrizrule]

Exceptional defense so far

Only 1 breakdown in 9 minutes.

 

[mtgrizrule]

Sawyer is strong . Throwing guys around like rag dolls.
Reminds me of Kamar Davis.

Money with 11 already.

Good first half. What happened with Money? The voice of the Griz keeps mentioning up above, and can’t imagine how he’s done the last couple days. Obviously the young man lost someone…anyone know?

Not sure, but he's putting on a show.

He sure is. Wish his family well, whatever is going on.

 

[Big Sage]

Need a strong second half to kick off a big day for Griz Athletics

 

[mtgrizrule]

Wow, God Bless Money Williams. His dad passed on this week.

What's up with Moody? In the last few games he doesn't seem to be able to make a bucket. I understood it with the UH game. They didn't give him 2 inches the whole game. In today's game, he had some wide open looks and still couldn't hit them. Has he been injured or something?

Moody was hot in the second half against Nevada on Thursday. Today he missed every shot from the floor, but made is free throws. Slump I guess

Couldn't find the best quote by Damian Lillard on shooting slumps, but this one should do:

When Dame was asked after Friday's win about finally breaking out of his slump, Bleacher Report's Sean Highkin reported that Lillard said, "I’ve been around long enough to know it’s part of the game. I’ve had stretches where I scored 50 points a game for 4 games. You can’t enjoy that without also knowing that when shit goes south, that’s also part of the game."
P.S. eGriz messes with certain "unacceptable" 4-letter words here. Damian did not actually say "poop."
