JO and Lavon will be beasts in the MAAC. They aren't the same team with them off the floor. Just a first half impression.

What's up with White? Why is he sitting out?

Thank you for the update. Agree JO and Long will be solid. I also think Wright will be very good PG as a frosh.

What exactly is going on (I couldnt make it) w/ the not the same team comment! That scares the sh&& out of me. These guys should be playing like the globetrotters v. the generals. For god sakes it's a D3 team they're playing. They should all look like beasts/studs!

73-41 with 7 minutes to go. Ncu is way better than Skidmore and we did not go well against the inn comparison last year.
We look good and when we get White back we will be better on half court offense. Three freshmen are real good and Wolfe had some nice plays. Poole the leader, Hymes up and down. Silas much better second half.
We are tiring them out so if we play with out depth we could win just by tiring some teams out.

I don't really believe in stats or numbers but here's the box score if you believe in that sort of thing. www.sienasaints.com/sports/m-baskbl/stats/2013-2014/sie1102.htmlWright, Hymes, Poole, and Long combined for 17 assists vs. 5 turnovers. Wasn't there but sounded like Hymes had some cobwebs...but he had 3 steals...and 16 pts.

Wright is very solid, Long is as advertised a very good all around player- was very good at breaking pressure. No contest at Center JO is definitely better than Silas-- its not even close. JO much smoother with ball-- doesn't go for every fake and still blocks shots. Silas played much better 2nd half. Hymes was also up and down- had a play with Player took ball away from him-- the look Jimmy gave him was priceless. On the good side when NJCU tried to pressure the inbounds ball and play deny, Evan faked toward the ball and then took off down the court- not many players will catch Evan if he gets a step on you. Poole needs to get more selfish and take more shots. No doubt in my mind White starts.. the biggest problem I saw was team isn't great in half court offense dont really have players that can get off their own shot- if Cole is cleared that would help immensely. Also liked Wolfe and have come to opinion we might be better off playing Wolfe and letting him back up JO/Silas/ Long.. Wolfe is better than Bisping, who looked to struggle with pace of game. Overall a very enjoyable game to watch-- now that's my type of basketball-- that's entertainment..LOL
