Final: Bradley 74 - Real Deal Shockers 66

[AZ BU Fan]

Halftime score 32-24 and we are shooting 30% overall, 13% from 3-pt (2-15), and 50% on FT (8-16)
Glad this is an exhibition game but if we don't improve I gotta wonder if the 140 fans following it on BradleyFans would go watch the Cooking Channel instead

"Breaking Bad" season opening rerun!

Either that, or, 'Judge Judy' syndicated shows....

bad news - 2nd half started - and about five minutes into the 3rd quarter we haven't been able to hit the bucket yet - we are in a funk

[tornado]

if the box score canbe believed Walt Lemon is 5-5 - so this is one game where I say just give him the ball and get the hey outta the way

[tornado]

sure we're playing bad but this team we're playing is hideous --
they are shooting only about 20% and have hit just 1-12 from the 3-pt arc..
they are also kinda shooting FT poorly and have 19 turnovers so far.

[tornado]

Their starting FIVE are just 1-17 from the field - holy cow!!!
I guess I don't feel as bad now....

but we'd better hope Walt, Tyshon, and maybe Grier stay healthy and don't get hurt - we got nobody that can hit the rim besides those guys
...although Grier is just 2-13 and 1-9 from 3pt tonight

[tornado]

We scored the first 11 pts....and we have not added a point to our lead since then...
in fact.. as badly as the Real Deal guys are - they have actually closed the lead since then

[Da Coach]

End of 3 quarters- Bradley 47 Real Deal Shockers 39

[tornado]

BU lead 47-39 ..we got some work to do in the 4th

in a close game the 4th quarter should belong to those guys who are playing well and getting it done...

I'd play Walt, Tyshon, Pross, then offer the other two spots on the floor to anyone who actually wants to play and make a basket or a FT

[tornado]

drat - lead is only 7 now....I do not have a good fell about this team's ability to close this out - especially if they foul us and put our 50% FT shooting to the test

[tornado]

Lemon, Pickett, & Pross are a combined 13-20
the entire rest of the team are a combined 5-40!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Absolutely WOEFUL!!!!

[tornado]

uh oh -- suddenly a ton of whistles on us...

[tornado]

Lead down to four -- don't switch to the Cooking Channel just yet...

[tornado]

They have 21 turnovers and have missed 73% of their shots - how are they in this game?

[tornado]

another foul...we have some work to do

[tornado]

what??? finally a foul on them and we make both FT's
