1. Early on, way too many turn overs.
2. Liam's spinning layin at about 17 minute mark... a thing of beauty.
3. These refs are brutal.
4. 11 turnovers in a half? And only 8 dimes? Those aren't the kind of numbers you're expecting in your final cupcake/warmup game of the season.
5. At the other end of the spectrum, 7 blocks and 7 steals in a half is pretty damned good, even if it is pretty low level competition.
6. So far it looks like we'll go as far as AK, LM, TR, SB & AM can carry us. AM isn't quite THERE yet, but he's leaps & bounds closer than he was the first few games.
7. What the hell was that foul call on Ball a minute and a half into the 2nd half?
8. Our possession that began at about 15:36 in the 2nd half looked like we were trying to turn it over but it took 3 or 4 tries before we managed to give the ball away.
9. Game getting sloppy with 12 minutes left.
10. Less than 6:45 left and we've gone completely off the rails. Haven't scored since Samson's dunk at 10:57. Finally scored at 6:32.
11. 10 steals and 11 blocks is impressive, but 19 turnovers? Against East Texas A&M Commerce? That's just bad.
12. Looking at the ESPN box score, they have Singare with no minutes and one foul? I never noticed him in the game.

Until we play a real opponent nothing would surprise me. Seen all the games and the last 2 live and Hurley wants what he had last year but there is no Tristen. Maheney had 1 assist and he is not a driving and 1 contact player or rebounder. He’s a 2 guard. Can’t look over the D for Samson lobs. Nowell has a lot to learn and even though short his toughness and athleticism would be good.
I wish Stew could handle well enough because he can create plays with his passing.

Can you explain that comment? I'm not sure exactly what you're getting at. Do you mean those are the 5 best players? Do you mean nobody else can be big contributors? Do you mean we have 5 guys who could carry the team in any given game (which is a very good thing to have 5 players that can do that)?
