They were smoking the Dukes defense until coach By went to a half court trap with 10 minutes left. Hofstra is still scoring very well, but the Dukes were also able to force a lot of turnovers with the trap.
We have a ballgame. Down 6 at the half.

Disappointing that Hofstra’s bench was able to contribute so much. That is not their M.O. and they got away with it while Ray and Kramer sat a lot with 2 fouls.

Also, we got our answer on who would flash to the FT line at the middle of the zone. It has been Lewis often which looks like the best choice considering his triple threat skills, but Wooden and Christmas have also filled the role some. Neither has been good enough executing or making good decisions when they receive the ball there. I say let Lewis get all of the Touches in the middle of the zone until Hofstra stops him. Rinse and repeat.

Might have to go Jimmy Chitwood on them

Hofstra likes the better team but if Lewis can get hot and take over the 2nd half then I think we can win. Plus, Hofstra was 9 of 20 behind the 3pt line. No way they keep up that kind of Efficiency in the second half.

Was it Bourne that went the extra CAA mile to put a Tom Yeager cut out in the Bank in a seat that is on TV three times of course?

Too many turnovers! Need to clean that up.

Yeah- that is very annoying. Should be a big benefactor instead

Down 66-57 at 12:00 mark. I keep telling myself, "they can't keep shooting this well" and "our depth will wear them out". C'mon Dukes!

9:25 left- down 71-66. We are still battling. Start feeding Amadi, he's figured out their defense!

Hofstra has launched 31 3 pointers and hit 15 of them. Sheeeez
Down 74-68 w/ 7:25 left

bull**** foul on Lewis.

A CAA agendaist, the infestation in the athletic department giving the finger to JMU alum.

...giving the finger to "the JMU mob" as Tommy Boy called us...

Don't look now....but it's 74-72 Hofstra w/ 5 minutes left. We are finally connecting on our interior passes and getting easy buckets. C'mon Dukes!!

Refs really swallowing their whistles this afternoon...

Christmas w/ a 3! JMU up by 1 with 1:41 left!!

Slam dunk!!! And another slam dunk!!!!

Come on Dukes! Finish this.

This is the first JMU basketball game I've watched from end-to-end. Great game and looking like we have a promising future with Coach B. Go Dukes!

Let’s go Dukes! Kept composure and made the come back. Hofstra was hot from the 3 and we kept to our game.

Didnt realize the game was not on Flo until the last 8 min, first ive seen of the team all year. Love the maturity and comeback! Now lets show we can close games out from the line.

Will be fun to watch games like this in person when there is a huge crowd. Place would have gone nuts at those last 2 dunks.
