While I do agree with sitting Taylor after that ridiculous T, you can't have him on the bench to start the 2nd half. Ain't gonna win with Bean running the show. He does not look like a Division I point guard. His game is mind-boggling.
And as far as Taylor goes...quit celebrating after every made 3. He was bound to get a technical at some point for showboating.
Bean looks slow and indecisive every time he touches the ball. Gotta move it quickly if you are going to break a zone.

  • More f-ing from this pathetic team. We can't make dunks, free throws, lazy on boards, and then we keep throwing it away.  Stop scheduling Heildeburgs and SWAC schools because EMU played teams up and down the top 25 and they look prepared for the MAC and we are not.

there has been like 3-4 times this game where it looked like we were primed for a run and then either a mistake or a big EMU shot just takes it away

Reverse jinx just worked.
We talk negative all game and somehow they pulled it out. 
Hats off to Bean...we've all been waiting for the dude to step up and he did. 
I hope this game gives him the confidence he desperately needs to propel him forward the rest of the season.

And you guys have all been hating on Stevie and Bean lately... Wasn't beautiful, had some horrible performances and shooting, but you have to appreciate the resiliency and ability to win a game like this one on the road against a good team who has played some big competition. It was also nice to see Stevie get his offense back on track and nice to see Bean have a good game

This team has some issues against the zone, but this is a gutsy road win where we showed some character at the end. Many teams in the past would of folded

That's a little harsh....I didn't mind that foul by ndour...they were trying to get up the 3 to tie and he hounded the guy to make sure the shot didn't go up....good defense in my opinion...

Today was my first look at this season's Bobcats. For the most part I was trying to decide whether I was watching an exercise in amusement or masochism.

The comeback was thrilling but this team looked too much like that 5-21 team of yore. The Cats seem to possess mediocrity in abundance.

After all we were playing the EAGLES and it was just a matter of time before the EAGLES of old would show up and gift wrap the game to us. Thank you Eagles. That's East Missed again University at its finest. Nice comeback Bobcats.  We knew you guys had it all the way.  lol

i resent everything about the original post . The defense was good and the term is offensive in so many ways that I am embarrassed that it comes from a fellow BA person.

Never thought I'd see this team win this game after 35+ minutes of some of the ugliest offensive basketball I've seen. Good win.

Nothing indecisive about that go-ahead 3-pointer. Huge shot!

Not a pretty game by any means, but there's something to be said for grinding out road wins when you're not at your best. All that talk about chemistry early in the year...times like this are when it matters. I've watched the Cavs splinter in the face of adversity over and over this year, and their locker room issues are well documented. Exact opposite with this group, and this is how it pays off. Gritty win.
