UA @ ISU (GAME THREAD!)

Albany is leading. Great game so far, fun to watch. I think these announcers (only been watching for a bit) are better then the regular Albany guys. Not sure yet though.

The video is nice. This seems like a game where the Giff could be involved although I haven't seen him in much.

He is disappointing, to say the least.

 

Danes look good....

I agree. Someone needs to guard Hubalik. We are giving them too many free throw attempts, and it seems like if Wilson and Lillis aren't in, the offense is non-existent. We need Martin, Ambrose, Hastings, Connelly or Turley to pick up some of the scoring.

 

Overall, I think we have played ok. Always room for improvement. Why doesn't Reid Anderson ever move from the bench? I've always thought he could be a pretty good player.

This former Coach of Brent and Brian is very Apathetic about the interview

[Dane Pound]

I thought Anderson was still hurt. I've liked him when I've seen him but he's had some tough luck with injuries.

 

ISU started to play better when Brent and Lillis went to the bench. I liked that Connellly tried to do more offensively but that wasn't a great offensive lineup on the floor in the last couple of minutes.

[JustDrastik]

In all honesty, Giff's minutes need to come down. I don't know how much more I have to see of him putting up zero offense/defense. Occassionally he comes up with a surprise rebound, as was the case on the offensive free throw and puts it up and gets it muffed by someoen 6 inches smaller than him. I think our passing is MUCH crisper this game.

 

It's expected, but Turley needs to cut down on some of the traveling calls. He's young, so I understand but I can't wait to see him in a few years.

[JustDrastik]

Oh, and these announcers are very pleasant. It's nice to listen to someone else's broadcast and not have to deal with them being SO one sides it's unlistenable to. If anyone remember the Gridiron classic game against Dayton, you'll understand.

[albanyhoops31]

You can tell Turley has very good talent. He will be good...eventually. He isn't there, yet, though. He turns the ball over and some bad fouls as well. But it'll come. I think he's pressing a little right now.

 

Covington reminds me a little of Gifford in the sense does he ever score? I know he's a good post defender, but he seems like a guy we should try to get the ball to down low...

[JustDrastik]

Unfortunately, there are some players who just aren't gifted offensively. The same can be said for defense. I would prefer Covington to Gifford though. At least with Covington, there's some tenacity and some muscle. Maybe I'm being too hard on the kid, but Gifford NEEDS to score here or there. We need a few easy baskets in that regard. If a player isn't contributing on offense OR defense, well then it's almost like playing 4 on 5.

[JustDrastik]

If we're going to stay in this game, we need to stop their run right now.

[LETS GO DANES!]

This has hurt us in Conference play... and We're seeing it again tongiht.. kinda our Achilies heel...

 

 

When the Team gets hot from 3....

 

 

GUARD THE 3 POINT SHOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[albanyhoops31]

Is anyone else noticing how much this team misses Jamar Wilson and Jason Siggers? This team can not score. I am we are in a huge drought right now, and there is no "go to" guy on the offensive end. We were playing pretty well but it's all unraveled. This Wesley Johnson guy is a great player, not really digging his attitiude. Seems like an $ienafan.

[JustDrastik]

Iati hit those 2 threes bearlier in the game but then on the SAME play, shoots 2 bricks. UGH
