Guards are playing awful. Thompson is carrying the team right now.

We were doing a great job of working inside to Thompson and now Price one shot and done and Mangum as well. Lee is not a factor. Not taking care of the ball.

I'm getting worried it could be after 1. He looks so good out there!

If he can hit midrange jumpers like that, then he will play in the NBA. There are tons of athletic 6'10 guys that can't find jobs because they can't shoot. That jumper is his money maker.

Mangum has really bad hands for a guard.

Our guards overall look sorry in this game.

JT4 is pretty much a one-man band tonight.

No one else seems to have their game, including Lee.

I'm probably his biggest supporter on here, but Ty Toney has not been good at all tonight. None of the guards have. We need one of them (at least) to step up if we want to win this game. NIU defends the hell out of it, but we shouldn't look this incompetent.

not converting our takeaways into points either

Looks like we used all of our 3-point luck last game. Ugh.

From hot shooting to zero shooting

Amazing how sports works.

Wednesday EMU was shooting lights out behind the arc. Tonight: 0 - 6. Ugh.

0-7 from deep, far cry from the 13-20 on Wednesday.

Can we try Alvano? We need a guard who wants to pass.

not just shooting poor ball handling throwing the ball away and allowing NIU guards to strip the ball

We are playing so dumb right now. Thankfully NIU still isn't very good offensively, or else we'd be down by 20 and not 7.

Mangum needs to start THINKING

These guys need to realize that they will be playing at the Y in 3 years, Thompson will be in the NBA, so get him the damn ball. Maric is big but has slow feet. Thompson could school him all night.

And now we're down 10

Probably the worst play I've seen by ALL EMU guards in a long time, lets hope they come to play the second half and wake up

Easily our worst half of the year against non BCS competition. If the CMU game was our ceiling, then this our floor. Murph better blow up at halftime to wake these kids up.
