MBB vs Milwaukee
« on: February 07, 2019, 01:26:28 PM »
I see we are a 4 point favorite. Not often we are a favorite in the league. On Mondays talk show, Coach said that John Sally would start. We beat Milwaukee last time, but 2 of their better players did not play.  A different game this time. We need to handle the winning of last week well, and continue to play hard on offence and defense every possession to have a chance to win.  Hope we can do it.

Down 5 points with 7.7 sec to go, Covington scored a 3 point basket with no time left to beat UMW by 1. 72-71. Unbelievable.

Tough night shooting but gutted out a win.   Going small late almost cost us as UWM hit some inside with their bigs.   Still having trouble getting anything easy inside and living on jump shots.    I'm thrilled for the program on their 3 game streak and hope to get # 4 Saturday.

Good teams win games like this.  Definitely an ugly start for much of the first half until clawing back into & taking the momentum at halftime.  Would have been tough to lose after up 7 late as it felt like games earlier in the season that we let slip by.  Crazy to think we scored 6 points in 8 seconds to win it.   

Naz has been terrific the last 2 games and being the player that was envisioned.  He's playing so confident.

A win against Green Bay Saturday & we could be in contention for the 3rd seed.

A win is a win. Definitely a game that we should have lost as Milwaukee actually controlled the game. Despite the win we just don't play very good at home. Milwaukee is not a very good team and that should have never came down to the last second shot. Hopefully Saturday night we have a bigger crowd. Need it. Everyone needs to be vocal and loud we need to win at least two out of next three at home

I agree game is at 6 pm.

In the Milwaukee game we got away from the inside game on offense and it almost cost us.  We seem to fall into just shooting 3's too easily.  Much of the time we don't even have a player inside on offense so we sure don't try to get the ball inside.  We need to work on getting the ball to the inside just like the women's team does no matter what the other team does.

Hope we can win against GB.  Haven't seen the line yet.

UWGB appears to be 1.5 point favorites, I've seen it moved to 2 on some sites.
