Game 32: (A-10 Tournament, Brooklyn, NY), George Washington, Thursday, March 14th, 2:30 PM NBCSN

You know, I'm encouraged by Calixte. He's got feet for hands, but otherwise, he's not a bad player. If he develops even slightly below average hands, he can be a solid A10 big.

I like most of his game but his missed layups kill me

I like his toughness on defense, but he’s way too unpolished on offense to be a solid A10 big.

 

[GMUgemini]

Otis trying really hard to underperform this game. Greene to the rescue there.

 

[GMUYoda]

I cant understand how this team was once 7-1 in A10 play. How?

 

[GMUYoda]

Scraping by thanks to Greene offensive rebound off a Otis FT miss and he makes both

Boyd. When Boyd was the best 6th man in the league we were winning games. He’s been a non-factor for at least six weeks.

uh, i'd say he's gone beyond trying. I'd say he's succeeded.

I mean, that's one of like 15 reasons

Luck and a crappy league.

 

[GMUYoda]

Hope no one bet on the +8 or whatever the line was

It’s a pretty big one.

We also got a little lucky leaving shooters wide open and missing.

 

[PoorManProfit]

I don’t like the 8 pt.+ numbers I’m seeing. At all. I think the Colonial cover which will likely lead to a victory for them, but:

Geo. Wash 67
G Mas 71

I am the PoorManProfit.

 

[Herndon]

If we somehow win, we aren't winning against Bonaventure playing like this... no chance

If we play like this, we will get WAXED by St. Bon.

Except that you said GW would likely win if they covered. Can’t predict it both ways and then say “I told you so!”.

 

[bravesfan]

A win is a win. And the team mom can rest easy tonight knowing there's at least one more game...

 

[PoorManProfit]

Yes, my feeling was GW would cover and usually I’ll take that team to win as well. However, GW is so piss poor I just had to take the side only. Easy $ today.

 

[gmutom]

Their mixed defenses gave us fits, so it's a huge relief to escape and advance. Goes without saying, we need to take our game up a notch tomorrow.

Why does Reuter hedge so far up the court, is he being told to do that???

I'd imagine so. That's the way UVa does it, and they're the best packline team in the country

Positive take:

1. It’s always hard to beat any team three times in one year, especially when we just waxed GW at their own home less than a week ago.
2. First game in any tournament is upredictable
3. Hey when it’s one and done. Just win and hope you learn and play better the next day.

Negative take

1. It’s GW and having a terrible year
2. GWs best player was out
3. They played an overtime game yesterday and showed more energy than us.
4. Some amazingly difficult to believe rotation decisions by Paulsen. Mar? Now? Off an injury?

Anything is better than losing. Hoping to see a much better performance tomorrow.
