I think we go back to Normal with a 2-1 record in Estero. For whatever reason, Coach Nagy and Wright State seem to prefer high scoring games this season and we play defense (enough) to get the W.

Gotta get this one. D up and watch the fouls. Play loose. Getting off to a fast start would be nice too. Find a way to get it done.

Wright State has been challenged early, already playing games against Colorado State / Indiana / Toledo / Hofstra. Not sure how schedule adjusted this is, but WS has been dreadful on the defensive end. They don't force turnovers. This one is going to have to be won on the defensive end. We'll get whatever we want offensively. Can we get enough stops to win?

Move the ball! We don't have to dribble all the time. The big (lieb) screen, cut- look for the cutter or rotate the ball.

Just win and finish this tournament with a 4-2 record. St. Louis, LBS and High Point have all been extremely athletic teams, idk if we will face any teams as athletic with the speed as they are the rest of the year. If we play defense and defend the 3, we should be good in this game.
On another note, I wonder if Negril03 will be tuned into the game this afternoon.

11+ assists have been wins. Less than 11 have been losses.

Get 11+ assists (For starters, more would be even more ideal) and come home 2-1 on the trip.

Wright State is a good ball club (and played good competition) regardless of their name and/or what we used to think about Horizon conf. level teams. We are a program on the upswing (finally). Let’s come back 2-1 on the trip!

1. Lieb make some of the bunnies around the rim

2. Play good defense (40 minutes if he’ll)

3. Better ball movement and up the assist production.

Birds 75
Wright State 69

Let’s go!!!!!!

Redbirds played two athletic teams and had to stave off a comeback Monday and make a furious rally yesterday. The question that will be answered today is if they lose it will be because they are out of gas and if they win it will be because they are deep.

Tired of it.

Definitely the worst we've played all season. Lots of mental mistakes not playing good team basketball. It's difficult to watch

By far.

It almost feel like just put out five of your best guys and just let them play out the rest of the half and see what happens.
