Final score- Chattanooga 67 Bradley 65

It all comes down to execution, execution, execution. When we execute on both ends of the court we don't lose. Doesn't matter who is in the game. Not having Darius will no doubt hurt us but it's next man up time. UTC is a well balanced team as they have 4 guys who are averaging in double figures and over 4 rebounds a game so it will be a challenge but one I believe we will be up for. Time to bring it one more time P-Town! COME OUT AND SUPPORT THIS TEAM! They deserve a proper sendoff. Go get em boys! GET ER DONE!

Yes, George Mason was 17-1 at home this season and 9-0 at home against A-10 opponents. That is pretty impressive for Bradley to come away with the win.

I’ve always said, ignore the gurus and the kenpoms,
the MVC >>> A-10!
 
I think we can dominate the boards, attack them inside ,which will open up good looks from 3, gotta knock em down. Make more free throws then them. Hoping for a huge loud n proud crowd. They can score but in Peoria against us? Duke has to win his match up. I think he does. Cant wait for 6. Should be alot of fun.

DC - Does NIT still play the 3rd-4th place game? I believe that ended after Covid? I couldn't find that game the last year (since they left the Garden for Championship games)...

No they don't. I think they stopped playing games for 3rd and 4th place several years ago.
 
Come - on Braves...finish this out!:mrgreen:
Up 13 pts at the half but getting sloppy with the ball...:mad:
Remember 19-0 when leading at the half!:mrgreen:
 
This Bradley team is very good at making poor passes and poor passing decisions on a consistent basis. Tonight it really hurt them. The other team was very well coached and only had I think 4 turnovers. Bradley got outcoached tonight in many areas. Very disappointing.
 
Bradley had a very good season. Wanna thank the organization for their work. But this game left a bitter taste in my mouth, as I'm sure it did the rest of you. What is even the point of a championship????

Just NIT trip after NIT trip and what's there to show for it? Whatever, I'm just waiting for the NFL Draft and the NBA to wrap up. Enjoy your spring and summer.

I think they have reached the ceiling with this coaching staff. Enjoy your summer, too.
 
Congrats Braves on the season 28-9 is really good!:mrgreen:
Tonight was a downer...at one point up 16 or 18 pts and just get sloppy on defense and unforced turnovers.....tried forcing in to Meta way too much with terrible passes...put the ball in the hands of your playmakers!:idea: :idea: :idea: Atlason needs to improve, can anyone remember last time he made a lay-up?:oops:
Hope Burch stays...:o
 
How can you not guard numbers 2 and 3 because I knew going in they were their best shooters. Those 2 are small and should not have been able to get so many open 3 point shots. The turnovers and rebounds were really bad tonight along with the substitutions. Burch could have had 20 plus points had they just let him play more tonight. Its is hard to understand how Drakes 2 players play 39 and 40 minutes and ours are taken out for rest. Very disappointing to lose to a team at home that you should be able to beat period.

How can we never scheme Duke open but they were constantly open.
 
Not much more to say... a disappointing end to a great season for the Braves.
They really missed Darius Hannah. Chattanooga won because they outhustled Bradley, and were more aggressive on defense and rebounding.
Key hustle stats-
Offensive rebounds- Chattanooga 11 Bradley 4
2nd chance points- Chattanooga 13 Bradley 2
Turnovers- Chattanooga 5 Bradley 12
Point off turnovers- Chattanooga 20 Bradley 5
Steals- Chattanooga 8 Bradley 1 (lowest steal total of the season)

Every one of the "hustle stats" were hugely in Chattanooga's favor, and that doesn't happen by chance.
I was baffled all night why Bradley kept trying to throw high-risk passes inside, leading to turnovers or bail-out shots, rather than simply look for a good shot elsewhere on the floor. Duke and CD were each 2-6 from three, but they should have taken more threes, IMO.
Bradley came into the game # 1 in the country in 3-point percentage, but only attempted a couple threes in the 2nd half until the final minutes.
