Feff Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Brewster needs to start benching Williams when she just throws the ball away. Been here 4 minutes and seen it 3 times Quote
bincitysioux Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Sioux down by 1 with about 16 minutes left. One of the refs is Ozzy Osbourne's wife, I'm pretty sure............... Quote
Feff Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Apparently you can tap a rebound back past half court and get away with it now. Terrible officiating on that Quote
bincitysioux Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Ha! Down by 3 with under 10 seconds left and UND opts for the layup. Down 1 with 1 second left................ Quote
bincitysioux Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 77 UND 79 Sac Final The ladies are playing some bad basketball right now.............. Quote
bincitysioux Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Another game with 20+ turnovers............... Not surprisingly, UND leads the Big Sky in turnovers, averaging 23 per game. They had 22 tonight, so I guess that is an improvement Quote
Feff Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Yeah, they really suffer from lack of a strong point guard and their attempts at breaking the half-court were often ridiculous. When they actually got into their set offense, things went well. But then too many were slow-footed back in transition and they gave away far too many easy layups. Also too slow rotating either in zone or man defense and closing out on the three point shooter for Sac. I do have to say that out of the three point guards I saw last night (Williams, Mills, Burck), Burck was the one that gave us the most on the floor. She played good defense for the most part and actually presented an outside threat to shoot. Whenever Williams or Mills are in, I never think they will take a shot and neither does most defenses, allowing their defender to sag. Last night, Jones should take some notes from Brewster on how to get shooters open. The plays Brewster runs to get Lauck open shooting space are very nicely designed and run. Jones should take notes and start mirroring some of them for Schuler. Quote
WeAreNorthDakota Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 Solid game for the full 40 minutes tonight. Cut the turnovers way down even though they occasionally threw some press at us. Shot a less than stellar percentage and still won a conference game by 20. Hopefully this gets us back on track after a bad stretch there. Quote
Feff Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 We killed them on the boards, not sure what the total numbers were though. Quote
Sioux_FF Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 Anyone hear anything about Evers for tomorrow or Saturday? Or Houdek? Quote
bincitysioux Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 The ladies beat Weber by 5 last night to get back into the win column. Lauck had 16 points. Quote
bincitysioux Posted February 3, 2013 Posted February 3, 2013 The struggles of the women's team this season is a bit surprising to me. I didn't expect them to be world beaters, but I figured they'd easily be a top 5 Big Sky team. Currently they are sitting tied for 8th place, and have lost 6 of their last 8 games. They have 5 of their last 8 games at home so that helps, but four of those are also against the top 4 teams in the conference. To be fair, unlike on the men's side, the Big Sky is probably considered a legit mid-major women's basketball conference. Currently the conference is #15 in RPI. That is a huge step up from the GWC which was always 31 or 32, but still I figured our ladies would at least be a .500 team this year. Of course having a healthy Wall all season would have helped, but injuries happen to every team. Quote
Feff Posted February 3, 2013 Posted February 3, 2013 Front court depth has been an issue this year with Wall, Houdek, and now Evers all banged up. But the main issue has been turnovers. Our guards are careless with the ball and it has killed us in games this season. Quote
UND Fan Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 Behind 24-23 at half. Turnovers - UND: 17, MSU: 14 Not a very well played game!! Quote
bincitysioux Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 62 North Dakota 55 Montana St. Final Quote
Feff Posted February 9, 2013 Posted February 9, 2013 So far I the Montana game, terrible offenses and terrible officiating. Ugly to watch. Quote
