I wish the game was at 9AM instead of 9PM.
Hopefully GW got those 3's out of their system.

Re: A-10 Tournament Quarterfinal - GW - Friday 9:00pm
They lost a close game here.
They're playing very well again.
This will not be an easy game, at all.
GW was picked for the top of the A-10, for a reason.
Very well balanced, with a good bench.
They also play defense. Garino is an excellent defender.
They have the big moose Larsen down low. He's a load,
and a good passer.
The hated Wantanabe looks like he's coming along as an
offensive force. Kind of shooter we could use.
They shoot it better than we do.(who doesn't)
We need to avoid our increasingly normal foul trouble,
and keep our best players on the floor.
We need not to get into an early hole, like we did against St. Joe's or
Kansas. We don't have the 3 point game to get us big chunks of points,
in a hurry.
It's all going to come down to how well we defend their 3's and control the boards.
I see a grinder tonight, and no sure thing, by any means.

This is going to be a very tough game. I don't like this match up at all. Hopefully we pull through, and our postseason inexperience doesn't show.
I'm actually expecting a narrow lose by Rhody tonight.
Hope I'm wrong!

not too worried about GW. They've been living on the 3. Not going to be able to do that against our defense.

Re: A-10 Tournament Quarterfinal - GW - Friday 9:00pm
Yea there is a reason this is a 1 point game in Vegas. I dont know how I was fooling myself but for some reason I was hoping for a Umass, LaSalle, Bonnies type matchup in round 1. When I first saw the bracket my initial reaction was ugh, that sucks. Hopefully we can pull off the big but not sexy win.

Yep, 15 and 10 against them in the first game, and played 31 minutes. Biruta also only played 8 minutes that game and did nothing. Need better than that tonight. Should be a good game.Keaney.Blue wrote:Keep Hassan out of foul trouble and I'm confident. He's the key to our team

Being well-prepared means Coach Hurley and Staff have taken care of the details; being fearful of an opponent means no one has done the job.
You expect to win this tournament? You expect to earn a bid to The Dance????
IF THAT'S THE CASE, DON'T PISS YOUR PANTS BEFORE A SECOND HAS BEEN PLAYED OF GAME #1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THE RAMS HAVE TRAVELLED TO BROOKLYN TO WIN THREE GAMES AND SNAG THAT AUTOMATIC BID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Damn straight bressler...I don't get the fear of GW around here. They're a solid team, and of course anything can happen in these tournaments, but we shouldn't be acting like the poor little underdogs anymore.

It doesn't matter what WE say, or how WE act.
WE have nothing to do with this team, other than being fans
and followers.
It's all up to them, not US.

The GW Fan Message Board:
http://www.gwhoops.com/default.aspx?mid=yvtsvti563
A poster there made this comment: "R.I. fan site is pathetic"
I am not certain if he/she means content or format. I have got to think it is not format as the GW board uses really antiquated technology and is very clumsy.

Yes, Blueram, I'm dressing as if I were going to the game.
I'll probably be yelling just as loud, too.

Re: A-10 Tournament Quarterfinal - GW - Friday 9:00pm
During the regular season game, except for Hass and Jared, we shot the ball horribly, 37% as a team. We also didn't rebound the ball well. Two things we did well was turn them over, with Garino and MacDonald turning it over a combined 11 times, and a rare great game at the line, 91%. We actually WON that game at the line. We have to improve on the two things we did not do well in the 1st game. We can't expect to even come close to that kind of shooting from the line again tonight (20-22).

Hope the coaches have been paying attention to how the games have been officiated so far. We need to be ready to bang and play a little dirty. It's as if the note to the crews has been "swallow your whistle".
So pumped. First two games today were great. But I hope we don't let it stay that close, not sure my nerves can handle it.
Barclays is a really great atmosphere.
