Final: Bradley 74 - Real Deal Shockers 66

[Da Coach]

Bradley plays again Tuesday night (8/13/13), with the game scheduled to start at 8:00 PM Central time against the Real Deal Shockers.
The first game of the night at 6:00 PM is the University of Southern Mississippi vs. The Street Legends All Stars, so it is possible the Bradley game could start a little later than 8:00 PM. We will try to have a link to the Live Stats before the game, so check back in this thread.

The Real Deal Shockers played one game back on August 6 against Auburn. Auburn won that game easily 99-63.

Here's our guys getting ready for the game tonight.............

[tornado]

The game before us - Southern Miss is in a tight matchup with the Bahamas Street Legends -
only about four minutes to go and it's a tie 61-61


Hampton beat these same guys by 25 - 79-54

[tornado]

only four seconds to go -
USM up 72-65

of interest - the foul count and the FT's are precisely even...so you can't claim bias...


I have to admit I am having a hard time understanding how this game is so close...
Southern Miss is shooting way better 47% to 38%
They have taken 77 shot attempts to 55 and have more 3-pointers...
they have tremendously outrebounded the Bahamian team 59 to 22, have 21 assists to 11, 16 steals to 10, and 26-8 on 2nd chance points - both teams have a ton of turnovers
so this game should be one-sided not this close...

link to stats should up soon

Prosser gets the tip

we are starting
J. PROSSER,
W. LEMON JR.
T. PICKETT
J. SWOPSHIRE
A. FIELDS

[tornado]

Swopshire hits his first shot - we go up 2-0

[Da Coach]

Starters were Swopshire, Lemon, Pickett, Fields, and Prosser.

[tornado]

Swop hits a 3, Lemon hits a 2 and we find ourselves up 7-0!!

The box score gives the 3 pointer to Lemon but the play-by-play gives it to Swopshire

[Da Coach]

Swop likes to shoot. He and Walt each with 3 early shots- BU up 9-0

[tornado]

Now up 9-0 they have yet to hit a basket
we have hit 4-9 forcing 4 turnovers from the Real Dealers

if this keeps up we are going to kill them

[tornado]

we make subs half way thru the 1st period and now 10 Braves have seen playing time - we are up 11-0

Zecevic, Wells, Harris still sitting


we are just 1-3 on 3-pointers - so don't get excited just yet....

[Da Coach]

11-0 and a timeout. Bradley is 5-12 the opponents are just 0-3, with 5 turnovers.

[tornado]

Auston Barnes misses his 1st shot - Zecevic enters the game with 5:36 left in the 1st quarter
