SWSiouxMN Posted January 16, 2021 Posted January 16, 2021 Turn the page. UND needs to play better in game 2. Time to see what this team is made of. Quote
ND-fan Posted January 16, 2021 Posted January 16, 2021 I agree the team needs to play better offensively but from defense side of basketball game they did not play that badly and considering we have hard time to match up with Ndsu. This NDSU team is very good team and is very big team that is good athletically and is patient about finding there offense. There point guard is big at 6ft 6 even when we have ihenacho on him who has good size is still couple inches smaller. Then you have two 6 10 big man that move well and can shoot from outside or even drive with basketball puts a lot of pressure on us to matchup. If we go big we are touch smaller and our second big man is definitely slower than there's. We can match up at the other two position height wise but we have to maintain contact with player otherwise they will torch us with cuts we can't catch up if were sagging to help on other three. NDSU offense weakness at times they can become poor shooting team and if you as team can score consistently on your possessions you can build a lead to where they have to start hurrying there offense further exposing there poor shooting. For UND to beat this team it is important that we hit the outside shot to spread there defense and second when we do get our open cuts or shots in paint we need to hit those shots. Tonight we missed a lot of good shots in the paint. But we can't have shooting night where we don't hit a three until 3/4 of the game is almost gone. Several of these players were brought in because they had shown they could shoot the 3 and its time now they need to step up get the job done. Last nights shooting of 36% is not going to get the job done especially with the way SU controls the boards. Also we need to take care of the basketball we need to win the turnover margin with SU to offset there rebounding edge. I think Sather will make some adjustments to help his team but the team has to come out be aggressive in moving on offense and finally show they tired of getting pushed around and show them they can beat them if they play there game. In short they tired of getting beat and there not going to roll over every time they meet. Quote

FSSD Posted January 16, 2021 Posted January 16, 2021 They can't shoot. They need a shooter to open things up.. Quote

They better, they need to respond after last night and put up a better effort. They need to come out with that same effort they did the first 5 minutes in the 2nd half where they were swarming on defense and more aggressive on the offensive end (and actually finishing). They need to throw the first punch tonight. Quote
SiouxFan100 Posted January 16, 2021 Posted January 16, 2021 I predict we get our first free throw 2 minutes into the game hopefully The first of 30 for the game Quote
BarnWinterSportsEngelstad Posted January 17, 2021 Posted January 17, 2021 Free throws on the scoreboard will help. Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted January 17, 2021 Author Posted January 17, 2021 So prepare yourself. Here is the lineup Ihenacho Panoam Igbanugo Sims Rebraca That is 3 changes to the lineup. Ihenacho back to the starting lineup, Panoam in for Nero, Igbanugo slides to the 3, Sims slides to the 4 to replace Sueker. A clear message has been sent, now lets see the response. 1 Quote
