Normally we win or lose based on 3 point shooting percentage. We hit a decent percentage tonight and played some good defense and won. We played decent defense against VMI and had a subpar shooting percentage and lost. We toughed it out pretty good on the road tonight. BTW, VMI leads the conference in both overall shooting percentage defense and 3 point % defense. UNCG came into the game 3rd overall and 4th defending the three point line. Mercer is near the bottom in both categories. Wofford is currently last in both categories.

I'm surprised that we have so many on here that are concerned with how "pretty" a win has to be. It's as though there's a sliding scale from "ugly loss" to "pretty win" and some become dissatisfied if the victory doesn't fall far enough up that subjective scale.

Furman won a road game in Greensboro, one of the traditionally most elusive wins for any SoCon team. Furman was 4-14 at UNC-G. Somehow we're still complaining about the win.

I'll literally never understand some of you.

Hein seems lost and can't do anything with the ball but lose it...ashame
Please stop attacking kids on this board. I will never understand why any adult feels the need to do this.

It seems to me that Hien's struggles right now are the need to get a little stronger with the ball (10-15 lbs in the offseason would help), and playing with confidence. He shows flashes that get me really excited, like the sight of him taking off for that dunk attempt in the 2nd half. Sure he missed, but he went to finish strong and was aggressive. Plus, he was WAY up there.

Great tough win on the road against a tough opponent with a short bench. I'll take that 7 days a week and twice on Sunday.
