Let's get it going and see if Hawk is the only one NOT on break yet.
We'll see if we've made any progress in breaking a press or a dbl team or defending a raft of 3s.
I'm looking for a 10 - 15 point win, since we have shown no ability to put a team away yet. Make your shots, pound them on the boards and give them few opportunities to run in transition.
Quick start and he first foul on MSM is Whack.
9 - 5 good guys.
Shane with back to back dunks then Paul misses a dunk, which Shane cleans up. Then Shane hits a pull up jumper. 10 pts already for Whit.
Broncos are shooting 85%
A lot of freshman playing for the Broncos
Broncos certainly move well without the ball.
Great backdoor pass from Shane to Paul.
Beautiful give and go btw Shane and Darius Paul.
Time out for MSM. 33 - 21 7:49 left.
Another backdoor pass.
Whittington really hustles at both ends of the court.
He has certainly emerged as a player.
Halftime: 44 to 28 Broncos.
No one in foul trouble.
Broncos exploiting MSM's pressure defense by great passing hitting open backdoor cutters.
Darius Paul is showing his B-ball intelligence with quality passing, rebounding, good shots, and defense.
All players look good because they are playing as a TEAM.
To me the big Q is whether or not we can increase that lead in the 2nd half. Can we maintain the intensity? Can Shane set a new career high?
Or will we lose focus and just maintain?
I see nothing from MSM to indicate they could beat us unless we just collapse.
55 - 32 with 15:45 to go and a TO for MSM. Shane with a nice flush on a Richie feed.
Encouraging to see Hutch much more selective with his shots - twice now he has made a pass leading to an easy bunny, this last one to Shane for a slam. Shane with 16 now.
Scratch that - he made both FTs and has 18. How refreshing to see a big man who can shoot FTs with deadly accuracy.
61 - 37 with 13:27 left. Even with all the Fr. on the floor, this is a major mismatch.
Harris is in the game now.
subs had difficulty handling the pressure. Starters back in the game.
Tava with the 'and 1' from Richie.
82 - 55 with under 5 to go. Connar follows up with a tip-in.
Five freshmen on the floor now.
Hoerdeman (?) in the game now, Klein off.
86 - 64.
87 - 66 is the final.
NOW they can go on their holiday break.
