ClusterHead Posted December 5, 2018 Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 I’ll take a 4 point halftime lead given the start we had to the game. First half thoughts: - Romeo took over that half. Good to see him carry the team when we are stuck in a rut. - Moore player well but shows a lack of experience. He needs to play to start the second half. - Thank goodness PSU had a poor outing at the line in that first half. Limit the second chance points and lock them down. - Morgan needs to go to work on the block and let the game come to him. Kick it out when it’s not there and take what the D will give you. - 3 point shooting was a touch better, but we can’t fall in love with it. Sprinkle in the mid range shots a bit to keep them from packing the paint on defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IUwins0708 Posted December 5, 2018 Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 Let’s get a double digit lead and bury these guys. One thing I want to see is Archie reward Moore in the second half for his first half play. Maybe this will help wake up Justin as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIUFan Posted December 5, 2018 Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 REALLY HAPPY for Moore's coming out party. Davis played well as well. Smith continues in his funk and needs to sit. Green and McBob seem to be coming around. Romeo is continuing to develop into the Superstar he will become--taking team on his back. D was lock down after first time out. Not understanding some of the disgruntled attitudes of some tonight. Go Hoosiers! Get our first road win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colonialcrester Posted December 5, 2018 Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 Care to define that for those of us who don't live in the Hoosier state Opponents fear us. Children cry when they hear our name. Women flee for their lives. Dogs run in terror with their tails between their legs. Mother's hide their children under the beds and in the barns. Men urinate down their legs when they hear the whisper of 'hoosiers"... At least that is my humble opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drroogh Posted December 5, 2018 Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 I think some of the attitude is zealous passion built up over 20 years and not letting the team show who THEY are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FW_Hoosier Posted December 5, 2018 Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 Davis also looked great before the inevitable second foul. He needs to get some minutes in this second half as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, the slow start didn’t bode well but the defense toughened up (minus a few mental lapses) and kept us in it until Romeo got going. I would honestly like to get Morgan more involved in the post and take advantage of his uncanny ability to kick it out when doubled. However, I would like to see more movement without the ball to start the second half. We started out with a “4 out 1 in” approach and were ball watching too much. Set a few back picks and cut on pass breaks to break their pressure in the half court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
