Title: Cleveland State next men's basketball game
Post by: YsuPride on November 24, 2023, 09:29:20 PM

Next Wednesday we play CSU for our opening Horizon Game with a solid Cleve St team.  Lets pack the arena.  Maybe we get 3k for the game.

I see that we are 4.5 point underdogs. Looking at their roster, it seems like they have good size. Not sure we can run with 2 shorter point guards on the floor at a time like we did against Dayton. Our team needs to jell for us to win like last year.

They are 5-2 losing 2 road games to Duquesne and Eastern Michigan. They also defeated Ohio U. It will be big test for us. They have 3 bigs (6’9”, 6’9” and 6’11”).

Most complete game of the season.  Defense and rebounding was on point.  Gabe Dynes has been a pleasant surprise.   Blocked shots,had some nice lob dunks,and has some nice passes.  Look forward to him playing with confidence and being aggressive.

Lovelace has all the skills and talent just needs to also stay confident and keep attacking.

CSU is a better team than they showed.   Won't be easy on 2/17 when we go there.

Is this team starting to have chemistry or is it to early to say ?

Yes we are starting to get some confidence and playing better.  Completely beat the vikings in all phases of the game. Nice victory in front of a solid crowd.
