UTEP v Pacific game thread

[MineroFanatico]

Thanks. Dumbass. Did Golding sit him?

Yep.

 

[MineroFanatico]

Verhoeven is careless. With his point blank shots, his screens, passes…

 

[FeralFelidae]

Other than taking that charge, Verhouven is having a terrible half.

 

[JCorona]

Hollins is all over the floor and not in a good way. He's literally falling on the floor too much.

 

[MinerManiac]

Damn it. 3 fouls on Boum

 

[FeralFelidae]

3 fouls for Boum.

I hope somebody else can score some points if he fouls out.

 

[MinerMambo]

Anybody else think these refs are terrible?

 

[MinerManiac]

Nice drive. We need more of that

 

[picks up]

The refs have disrupted the flow of this game. Both teams getting free throws on every possession. So annoying

 

[JCorona]

Risky move keeping Boum in

 

[MinerManiac]

We've committed a bunch of stupid fouls in these past few minutes

 

[MineroFanatico]

Bieniemy is a much better player this year. Really like his game.

 

[JCorona]

I'm happy with what we're seeing. If Verhoeven and Kennedy had at least hit one of their misses this game would be wider. Hopefully the foul trouble doesn't come to bite us in the ass.

Verhoeven is careless. With his point blank shots, his screens, passes…

He seems to be lacking in athletic ability. He doesn't get off the floor very much, for a shot blocker. Also has the reaction of a spoiled brat, every time a call goes against him.
He's very limited on the offensive end.

He is. If he could just become half assed efficient with that little baby hook, he’d be serviceable.

I remember when Golding first got here and Tydus decided to stick around, JG told him he’d half to increase his shot percentage. Still waiting…

Yep looks improved. I like that he is attacking the basket more. He did very little of that last year. We need him to be be another scoring option.

Agree. He’s actually a good finisher when he goes to the hoop. He’s also much improved on his three ball, which this team needed desperately.

 

[JCorona]

Offensive rebounds is the difference in the game.

 

[TxRdKiller]

I'm liking the Haskins style weave Golding is playing. Boum looking solid. Hollins looking like a beginner skater who's unable to stay up. Verhoeven is meh so far; Kalu not even that well.

Yet here we are with a nice 8 point lead. Why? Intensity. Hustle. Things we never saw with the former guy. Golding has these guys playing hard. I like it.

That and the three ball percentage.

 

[MinerManiac]

Nice way to start the half

 

[JCorona]

Is that 3 on Bailey?

 

[JCorona]

Bailey's confidence is shooken. Hasn't had a fg since the first media timeout.

Barbee also liked to run a weave

 

[JCorona]

We need to build a nice lead now that Bailey is on the bench with 4.

 

[MineroFanatico]

Easy to see why Sibley didn’t get much court time at Georgetown. Hopefully he gets better. A lot better.

 

[MinerManiac]

With the T we had a great chance to really take control if this game. Instead we've wasted 3 good opportunities

Make that 4.

 

[MinerMambo]

Sibley does not impress. Anybody want to see more Satterfield?

Kennedy is just frustrating offensively.

 

[JCorona]

Kennedy is just frustrating offensively.

Time to give Satersfield a few of his minutes.

 

[MinerManiac]

Far and away the Boum's best game of this young season. It looks like he's knocked the rust off after the injury kept him out of so many practices

 

[MinerManiac]

There were a ton of whistles in the NMSU game, and now this. Are they paying the refs by the number of fouls they call this year?

 

[MineroFanatico]

Has Agnew been back in since CJG sat his ass for the tech?

 

[Space acer]

There is no way utep plays this good with terry being the coach and less talented players they have now

 

[Lil_Train]

Has Agnew been back in since CJG sat his ass for the tech?

No

 

[MineroFanatico]

No

Wait, wha?!? Accountability?

 

[Lil_Train]

Nice. JB.

 

[JCorona]

That's it for Sibley

 

[MineroFanatico]

That’s what we need from Hollins on a regular basis.

He’s getting comfortable and learning his role, it appears.
