Up 44-40. 1555

Let's win this A10 opener

[Rhody15]

Carey hits TOUGH shots

Been saying it since he got here, Carey can do stuff nobody else on the team can.

I’ll absolutely live with the turnovers with how he’s been playing this year.

That 3 was great but that pass he just had was filthy. Let's go!!

It’s almost like I know what I’m talking about when I’ve said for multiple years Carey needs to play more.

[KevanBoyles]

Where’s Hutch?

[SandorClegane]

Gotta keep our foot on the gas. No let ups here boys..

[Rhody15]

Where’s Hutch?

Can only play so many guys. Archie has said multiple times we’re not 10 deep.

Can't use that as an example...I mean, even I have been on the Carey bandwagon since Day 1...

[rhodysurf]

Lol Thomas called for a foul as he hands off the ball

What???? He was a TO machine which is why he didn't play.

[rhodysurf]

Danger time

[PeterRamTime]

Its crazy how any time we have a good run we follow it with total ineptitude.

Followed up a good start to the first half with another total collapse for no good reason

[Rhody15]

That 3 was great but that pass he just had was filthy. Let's go!!

It’s almost like I know what I’m talking about when I’ve said for multiple years Carey needs to play more.

What???? He was a TO machine which is why he didn't play.

He’s still turning the ball over a tad too much, but he’s producing on the offensive end because he’s getting steady minutes.

[Jdrums#3]

Important stretch here. Might need a time out.

[reef]

Really bad stretch for us we needed a TO badly

[Rhody15]

Lol Thomas called for a foul as he hands off the ball

We’ve been called for that a bunch this season.

The player handing the ball off is either sticking out his shoulder or waist and getting called for a moving screen.

[SandorClegane]

We are really small without Bilau.. no shot blocking.

Love that the refs all of the sudden started calling this game tight over the past few min. Not going to work in our favor.

[reef]

Archie likes the obligatory TO after a hoop !!

[Rhodymob05]

Seems like they have to scratch and claw for every basket.

[Jdrums#3]

We needed that hoop. The O has gone cold and we are getting sloppy. Need to tighten up the D and ball handling to have a shot to win.

[Big Rhody Guy]

That dropped pass and the missed lob are going to really screw us. Need those easy buckets

[ElmCityRhody]

Ugh

[section(105)]

Bus driver looking for his keys………

[PeterRamTime]

Another L

[rhodysurf]

It’s gunna be a long year lol looked good and completely collapsed.. again

[Rhody15]

Rhody made basket, immediate TO.

After that, two straight Dukes buckets.

Still do not understand why Archie insists on taking a timeout in those situations.

[Jdrums#3]

Wtf. They don’t miss from 3.

[steveystuds06]

It’s almost like I know what I’m talking about when I’ve said for multiple years Carey needs to play more.

What???? He was a TO machine which is why he didn't play.

He’s still turning the ball over a tad too much, but he’s producing on the offensive end because he’s getting steady minutes.

If I remember correctly, he was starting early in his first year here.. He was showing flashes then, but the turnovers were so bad that Cox kept cutting his minutes. It has always been clear that he has all the tools to be a great player if he can get his mind right..

Another game where we allow teams to drain 3s on us. UGH...

[steveystuds06]

Tchikou has some highlights blocks this year. I'm not giving up on this kid.

[Rhody15]

Tchikou has some highlights blocks this year. I'm not giving up on this kid.

I don’t think anyone is giving up on him, everyone just realizes Bilau is better and Tchikou will now need to play more minutes than be probably should.

[damram]

I hate the David Cox timeout.

[Rhodymob05]

Tchikou has some highlights blocks this year. I'm not giving up on this kid.

I don’t think anyone is giving up on him, everyone just realizes Bilau is better and Tchikou will now need to play more minutes than be probably should.

He needs some muscle. He gets bullied in the paint sometimes.

[steveystuds06]

I truly don't understand why Weston barely sees the floor. There is no reason why Malik should be playing 25+ minutes, and Weston can't even crack 15 minutes.

[reef]

Wtf. They don’t miss from 3.

They are 9-16 from 3

[Jdrums#3]

I don’t like the timeout after a basket either because I think it stunts momentum and rhythm. But, I guess it makes sense if the feeling is setting the D is more urgent.

[Rhody15]

Archie was screaming at Freeman to get back on D after a bucket, but the Dukes weren’t fast breaking.

Immediately goes to sub Thomas in.

Tchkiou looks lost on a dribble hand off, but doesn’t turn it over.

Immediately goes to sub in Rory.

Rory them gives up an easy layup on the next play.

Don’t see how taking those two out this late is going to help, but we shall see.

[Jdrums#3]

Still in it. Let’s go!

[KevanBoyles]

Terrible shot by Thomas.

[Billyboy78]

I truly don't understand why Weston barely sees the floor. There is no reason why Malik should be playing 25+ minutes, and Weston can't even crack 15 minutes.

Malik has 7 points and 11 rebounds.

[Rhody15]

Terrible shot by Thomas.

He shouldn’t be in the game.

Zero reason he should’ve pulled Freeman.

[KevanBoyles]

We always seem to get killed on points off of turnovers. Right now eight turnovers 12 points. We have three points off of four turnovers.

[KevanBoyles]

Freeman just got beat bad.

[steveystuds06]

I truly don't understand why Weston barely sees the floor. There is no reason why Malik should be playing 25+ minutes, and Weston can't even crack 15 minutes.

Malik has 7 points and 11 rebounds.

He had 4 pts when I said that. He had a nice steal after that.

Mailk is a great rebounder. I still think Weston should be playing more.

[section(105)]

Bus driver found his keys……

[Big Rhody Guy]

Terrible shot by Thomas.

I’m his biggest fan, he doesn’t deserve to play if he’s going to take those shots. Absolutely unreal.

[Jdrums#3]

Can’t friggin score. Ooph

[RhodyRams916]

Too many TOs in the second half. Horrible.

[Rhody15]

Hutchinson needs to be playing over Rory.

Rory may be taller, but he can’t jump over the lines on the court.

Gets outrebounded and bullied too much.

Hutchinson has shown much more when he’s gotten on the court.

[RhodyRams916]

When Freeman isn’t playing his best it’s a definite loss.

[KevanBoyles]

Played better than what the final score indicated.

[RhodeIslandRams]

One of these announcers loves the Dukes so much he's hurting his throat screaming with glee with every Dukes basket. Didn't even mention a nice Jan by Rhody.

Disgusting. I didn't know I was watching a Dukes feed.

[Rhodymob05]

"We'll be good when we're good", but right now we suck. We don't have A10 talent or mature physique to compete this season. These guys need experience and time, which is fine, and Archie will adjust and recruit.
