@Valpo 1/2/19 7pm

[Redbird222]

Chastain drawing charge was nice. Up 9 to 3 at first break

Looking good on the road. Maybe Valley sucks as bad as advertised.

Fun while it lasted.

Listening to the game. Sounds as if Valpo has scored 3-4 layups. How are they penetrating inside like that?

 

[Redbird222]

Phil Having trouble finishing. Lavender is hurting us

 

[Birdman07]

Well, they sure don't look like a lightbulb turned on over the break

Fluorescent bulbs . . . can take a while to light up.

I’ll take being tied at half, after being down by 20+ in the first halves of our other 3 road games this season.

 

[Redbird222]

Zone defense is working. Offense is struggling. Tied at half 26 all.

By driving by our statuesque defenders.

Key can barely buy a basket this year.

The +- with Key and Hein in the game is awful. Neither have any offensive ability. I like the shots we are getting. We need to make a few more in the 2nd half. Muller going zone really changed the Valpo attack. As stated above our guards are like statues especially the two above. Like to see the Gasman get a chance to drop in a couple of 3's. Play Yarbs, Phil, Chastain, Jefferson, Copeland most of the 2nd half and we win. Sprinkle in Rey and the Gasman for a couple of minutes.

Yep switch to zone and Valpo is struggling.

At this point, anything they get out of Keyshawn is a bonus. You can’t rely on him to be that third scoring option.

Unbelievable how different his shot looks this year. We need someone to be able to hit an open 3 on a consistent basis. I am glad to see Jeffersen get minutes and hit 1. Mayne we will get him back into a groove.

I laughed out loud :lol:

It’s to the point where you have to just feel bad for Key. You know he wants nothing more than to get that confidence back and contribute but... damn.

 

[birdlife]

Chastain starting second half, I like it. He gives us good minutes on both ends.

Somebody get him a loan!

He hit some shots in the second half against central Florida but that when the game was out of reach. Other than the start against BYU, he’s been MIA.
