GRIZ/WEBER

[WashGriz]

watched on TV..I have not given up yet.

Crazy mad about free thrOws and turn overs altough Stauds and
Cet had good assist to TO ratio. I loved that dunk on the zone breaker
finially it looked like we had some plays working on Offense.

stauds 4 for 6 shooting threes..Solid

Jordon rebounding ..Great
big t overs bad.

last shoot.. was plenty of time to get a shoot off - COACHING BAD

CET driving good !!

Martin had a nice drive and kick..but a couple of bad shots and
burns on D

HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A GRIZ FAST BREAK ?????? WALKING IT
UP WHEN THEY ARE BEHIND....come on.

we have lost a lot of close games that could have gone either
way...we will run off two or three wins now. the tourney
is not out of question !!

 

[GrizBBIsKing]

About everything has already been said about this game. The offense still is poor with way too many last second desperation shots. The plan/execution of the last play was pathetic. Martin dribbling into a corner can't possibly have been the plan. To me, the one bright spot was the play of CET. I think he may emerge as a leader on this team. I don't expect the Griz to be in the playoffs this year. This reminds me a lot of Holst's 3rd season. :twocents:

Yeah, CET played the best. Actually shot above 50% from the freethrow line (3 - 5), and made some baskets hitting 3 - 4 from the field. Plus, only 1 turnover ( I think it was that travel call).

I work in the medical field and when a patient was transfered to extended care with no specific diagnosis and just was weak and seemed to have no will to live, they came in with a diagnosis of "failure to thrive". This team definitely has a failure to thrive. They just can't seem to get over the hump.

 

[griz17]

I hesitate to complain because the Griz definitely got the better end of the deal, but HOW BAD WERE THE OFFICIALS?

They put the wrong guy on the FT twice. Both towards the end of the first half. Hasquet got fouled on the fast break and after the timeout, CET was shooting FT's. Then right at the end of the half, Jordan got shoved under the hoop and the official INSISTED that CET was the guy fouled - he wasn't anywhere close to the foul. I saw Jordan and CET argue their point during the game and the official was basically telling them to shut up. Good news for the griz was CET went 3-4 on those particular attempts.

I don't want to complain too much because I think Weber got shafted more than us, but these clowns were terrible. Thursday night's crew wasn't any better.

Where do they get these guys?

 

[GRZFTBL]

I can assure you the damn refs had nothing to do w/ the outcome.

I haven't been to any griz games this year, but from the sound of it, they are doing the one thing I cannot accept as a fan: not trying.

If my team is worse and gets beat, or even runs into a lucky underdog, I can take it. But not playing with intensity is inexcusable; especially when you are going to school for free based on your ability to do the exact opposite.

DOA is the medical term, right?

 

[Hells bells]

I just looked at ESPN's box score and it says that McGillis played and was 0-1 from the field. Is that a misprint?

recognise anyone?

Officials: Byrne Haskins, Michael Houston, Eric Curry

i beg to differ about the refs not making the difference. I've watched 5 games and taped 4 and watched the games over and we've gotten the shortest end on away games with the calls which is usually expected away but at home we've gotten the short end also which doesn't compute with the home court advantage. it also seems alot of our bad calls come at key times and at the end of games when they make a difference. I saw this last year also. maybe the refs don't like the montana teams too well becouse i've noticed msu has taken some of the worst calls too in the games i've seen.

 

[grizpack]

It seems like the past few games, Tinks is spending a LOT more time complaining about the reffing, than coaching the team.

Just my observation.

Having been to all the games, I don't think lack of effort is the problem. Lack of execution and an effective offense is. :twocents:

Well that's good to hear. Judging by comments on pages 2&3, I would have thought otherwise.

I think the effort has been evident much of the time, but I certainly saw some lack of focus on the part of a couple players at a couple games I was at. I do agree execution is lacking, but I am by no means giving up on the team. I remember times when the 5th or th seed has won the BSC tourney. I do wonder what kind of FT perecentages a coule of the guards had in HS though. Personally I wouldn't recruit guards who haven't show the ability to make the easiest shot in basketball.

Personally I think a lay-in is way easier than a FT :twocents:

 

[grizsupporter]

i believe the griz's effort is good considering they are playing a half court offense and trying to pace the game or slow down some of their opponents games. tinks coaches for the inside game probably because he was an inside guy. i belive all the players almost are playing out of position. cam plays and scores best off the wing, matt should never guard the opponents fastestplayer and should be a2 guard and not the point, stauds is not a 3 and we lose alot of rebounds there that a slashing 3 could have he's a shooter, strait isn't big enough against alot our opponents as a center. it would probably be good to get some needed help with asst. coaching next year, maybe someone who could bring something more to the offense. they all are playing out of sort IMOP.

No way! The opponent's inadvertent tip in on your own basket is way easier!

No one is guarding you at the FT line, there is nothing easy about a layup with a defender or two on you.

What about a fast break lay-in then? Is that better GB1? I think a dunk is probably easier too. Being 15 feet away as opposed to no feet away? I was never good at physics though so maybe I'm wrong.

WTF was Martin doing on the floor that last play?????? He cannot drive and dish. cet or CAM should have had the ball, not him.

50% FT shooting and that is a moot point. :twocents:

I wondered what the heck he was doing veering outside; he should have been driving toward the basket in hopes of getting an easy bucket or a foul or dishing off. It was almost like he thot the Griz needed a 3.
