Since I don't gamble, covering the spread is of no importance to me,

Samford @ Furman Feb. 17
FYI- WCU got outscored 12-0 the last 4:09 of regulation and lost in OT at UTC. Losers know how to lose.
Mounce zero points and 0-3 shooting.
Someone please explain how he only took 3 total shots, especially when there are nights when he shoots near-NBA 3 point shots. Does he just shoot when he is “feeling it?” I honestly don’t get it.
And Bothwell takes 17 shots. At one point I thought he should only take short shots as his 3’s were so far off and FINALLY he hit two 3’s. Maybe that will be the start of a confidence streak for him.

I posted 5 minutes into the game that Mounce didn’t seem into the game tonight aka excited, fired up. He’s just too good to go scoreless and its happened more than once. Not only him but we have had several zero point games from our key players. To CM’s credit he did have 8 rebounds and 4 assists. I will take the Bothwell we saw tonight any day over the one we saw against WC.purplehorse wrote: ↑Thu Feb 18, 2021 1:32 amMounce zero points and 0-3 shooting.

All players will have at least one game when they are off.
If Mounce is going to have a game in which he does not score, thank goodness it was the same night that Hunter shot the lights out. Hunter was in the zone all night.

I had a somewhat different take. It seemed to me that Clay was looking to pass first and find the open man. Could it be that he has big scoring nights and wants to get other players involved and have a chance to score some points? I saw it as an opportunity for him to spread the wealth, build confidence in his teammates and set an example of team first. Hope i’m right. Clay is one of our most talented players and we need him to be successful. Go Dins!

I have ESPN plus and was watching Furman, ETSU and UNCG last night - tv , laptop and iPad. You need to check out Wes Miller near the game end - after a technical on I Miller for flexing after a dunk. He looks like he is going burst an aneurysm.
Miller is a ticking time bomb. One day, his anger is going to get him fired and banned from college basketball.
It looked to me like they sort of sunk in and took away the cuts that sometime generate lots of his points. They left 3’s open but Hunter was so hot why shoot when you could just get it to him? I think we just took what they were giving us.Fuonetime wrote: ↑Thu Feb 18, 2021 7:34 amI had a somewhat different take. It seemed to me that Clay was looking to pass first and find the open man.

Not sure of overall relevance or significance, but I believe Sammy had 7 Scholarship Players available to play last night and started 3 true Freshman.
All W’s are good W’s.
I would imagine the Hoops Team has put this not-terribly-difficult W in the vault & is totally focused on the road ahead.

I credit Mounce for not forcing up shots when he wasn't open. He hit the guys that were with passes, played good defense, and rebounded. This is the sign of a mature team player. Hunter was open and hot and Bothwell and Gurley had the most favorable match-ups so he did what he was supposed to do.purplehorse wrote: ↑Thu Feb 18, 2021 1:32 amMounce zero points and 0-3 shooting.
