    I'm not currently listening but that would make sense. You converge on the lane to defend their size and they have plenty of shooting options on the outside.

    They were supposed to be pretty good but they've not been. They lost to Detroit Sunday night.

    Well, according to Marlin and local media they are amazing. They are currently 3-4 with a loss to Detroit Mercy so they aren't that good.

    Poor start, but we have picked it up. Need to stop turning it over in the second half. We will be in this game if we do.

    Poor finish before the half. They turn it over 3 or 4 times and we don't capitalize.
    No field goals the last four minutes. Two missed layups.

    40-33 at the half. UCI shooting 53% from the field and Louisiana shooting 36%.

    We aren't going to beat anybody shooting 36%

    Might be the strategy. Have their bigs take 3's.

    Look, we’ll get through this. UC Irvine came out with a real chip on their shoulder because they know we’re the standard for mid-majors.


  10. Default Re: MBB: Louisiana v UC Irvine

    We can't stop Tommy Rutherford down low. But no one has all season, the guy is shooting 74.3% from the field.

    He is 5-5 vs us. Without him they are shooting 11 for 25 or 44%. They are 6-14 from 3 PT land we are shooting a pretty good 4-9. We are 7-10 from the FT line they are only 2-2.

    We need to find a way to slow down Rutherford and we probably win the game, otherwise we are done. Rutherford is a monster down low and we don't seem to have players who can stop him.

    Deny, deny, deny him the ball.

    1-2-2 full court or half court trap. Use our athleticism and length to get to the ball and transition.

    What athleticism and length do you think we have?? We have neither.

    I'm speaking of using Wilson, Temple, Dou and Tirus Smith in the open court to create turnovers with their athleticism. They are undersized already but if we can create some turnovers or just create delays in getting the ball down to the post they could be effective.
