Fun game to be at. Environment was so compact it was like an intense AAU game hearing everything between players and fans. Until I saw the box score, I didn’t realize Bishop had 28 points. For sure thought Buchanan did. Really impressed by GW’s two freshman.
If we don’t win the MAC, it’s not because we aren’t good enough, Wiz/lack of size, it’s free throws. A number of opportunities to win this at the line.
Wiz is Wiz at this point and going Jekyll and Hyde it. He’ll have ok games against lesser opponents and likely be less of a factor against better teams. Boals kept a short leash on him tonight. Hadaway gets a bit chippy — he tried to charge the court when EJ4 and (Edward’s I think?) rolled over onto each other. Lee Martin got in his face/held him back. Otherwise, I do love the intensity he plays with. I really liked the lineup featuring AJC, Ike, and Hadaway for size.
It’ll be nice to have Miles back and maybe, just maybe — IJ at some point. He’s a big kid. I do hope EJ4 and AJB are less passive moving forward. I’m not seeing it being a lack of touches issue. They haven’t been as aggressive driving to the basket like they did against Troy. When they’re slashing it seems to really open up the offense more.
The pieces are there, way to fight back. On to the next.
