MBB vs UWM

Boy we had a solid start to the second half and we are really trying to give this one away. Still up by 7 though ...just about 8-minutes left in the game.

Wasn't pretty but we're 2-0 in the Horizon.   Would love to see some more of Tyree than 15 minutes.  Props to Garrett Covington for his defense.

Great effort & good win against a solid team.  I thought it pretty complete game other than the stretch in the first half when we lost a big lead as YSU just couldn't hit a bucket, but we closed out the half strong, then let them back in at the end before putting them away.  But like the CSU game on Monday, didn't panic & didn't let them gain control or the lead.   Both these games probably would have been losses earlier in the year.

Still some rookie mistakes, but Cam & Braun really stepped up tonight.  Thought Haygood played good defensively, he just couldn't find the touch on offense.  If he could have knocked down a couple of those bunnies they probably wouldn't have been able to make it a game.  It's good to see him and Braun nail their foul shots.  Tyree really impresses me.  Would sure be nice to get another 5-10 mins out of him.  I don't understand why Anabir won't shoot.  He seems awkward, but he does have size & seems like has opportunities at times to score the ball. 

It goes back too to the last 2 games of making your foul shots & hitting some 3's and you give yourself an opportunity to win.  I really think we could have knocked off Indiana if we did the same.  If nothing else would have had the lead at half & been in it at the end.

After starting off 2-0 in the league, Green Bay has lost their last 2 including tonight at CSU.  Really have an opportunity here to go 3-0 with GB up next Saturday at home.

Thought was interesting that UWM beat Iowa State 74-56 @ Ames.  We could use a marque win like that.   Hopefully next season.
