Let's try this again.

Now THAT is what we've all been waiting for this season! That's what we KNOW the team can do!

Everyone was excellent in that game.

A few mentions:

TB with 16 points shooting an even 50% from the field with 12 reb 4 assists 1 stl and 1 block....excellent excellent game for him especially the intangibles such as him giving up shots he would've previously taken for better shots for others. Excellent sign.

EM made 4 points in 10 minutes and had a nice spring in his step. He looked good as well.

DSE.....need I say more. The guy is going to be a superstar along with TB before his career is up. Just an absolute play-maker in and out

WE with 14 points 4 reb 2 blocks and a steal

CR with 10 pts 6 reb 5 asst. 2 stl and a block

and I could go on and on...just all around great contribution from everyone. Well rounded attack. We looked like a multi-headed monster today. Excellent excellent game.

One word, OUTSTANDING!!!!!
 
Best overall complete game of the season, we need to build on this, the 1st 5 minutes was the best we have gone to the boards in many seasons, we were determined and physical and it needs to continue as it showed what this team is capable of accomplishing when it goes at it full tilt.
 
The difference in the effort between last week and this week is night and day. I don't want to get two excited about a one game winning streak, but the last 80 minutes we've played have been pretty darn good even though the Northern Iowa game got away. The fact that we've dominated the boards the last two games, after getting out-rebounded nearly every game before, says a lot. I'm hoping things have finally clicked with this team. If so, there is no reason we can't compete with any team in the Valley.
 
Be consistant nightly, play hard and no let downs and if they can substain that effort for the remaining 11 games and into the Valley tourney then Ill be extremely proud. But after playing hard 2 times in a row, and losing one of those, not exactly proud.

Plenty of this season remaining and they are capable of very good play but have shown no ability to be consistant in their effort.

That's the next thing they need to work on. Consistancy. But it is doable and they have an easier stretch now to make things happen, especially after SIU on Wednesday.

Agreed, just bring it every game and good things will happen for them:!:
I was out of town and just got back, so all I know about the game is the score and stats. How did we come out to start the 2nd half better I hope:doubt: Glad for the win:D
 
The start of the 2nd half was them trying to chip away at the lead and BU answering each attempt. We either got a defensive stop or came right back and answered on offense.
 
40 minutes of no letdown....

Consistent hustle:!:

This team proved exactly what it can do with 40 minutes all-out, leave it on the floor play...


It also showed exactly how great the crowd can be and how it can get behind this team when they play like they should and can play night in, night out...


It was a great day to be proud to be a Bradley Basketball fan:!:
 
The game against MoSU was the best we have played since we beat Illinois. A full 40 minutes of play, excellent defense, hit the boards, outstanding passing and finishing off with an excellent shot or a strong offensive rebound. If the team had played this way all season, we wouldn't be under .500.

I think many of us felt like BU had one of the most talented teams in the Valley, maybe THE most talented. The stats on MVC leaders also supports this argument.

If this team continues to play with the passion and intensity that it showed in the last two games there is absolutely NOreason we can't finish top 3 in the Valley and, hopfully, run the table come March. :)
