F the Fliers Game Thread

To my eyes it seems developing the tip tactic last year has helped their offense rebounding quite a bit.

Oso seemed to know who he was tipping it to. Ben's just slapping at it

[Tyler COLEk]

We have 3 guys under the basket and the Dayton guy gets the board. Terrible boxing out.

lol. and then MUBB immediately trapped the rebounder and forced Dayton to use their second timeout of the half.

Based on posts so far, I get the idea this was WW at 6:11.

Ben gets 1-2 tip rebounds a game—what basketball are you watching?

That's a way for Tre to sit

Ben lucky not to get a charge there.  Focus and finish the half strong.

Maybe it's me but I think Dayton fouls every possession.  Just saying.  And they're hands fouls.

Agreed. Lots of slaps, and putting 2 hands on the offensive player at the same time.

Chase needs to learn to pass the ball in transition. He simply will not.

[Tyler COLEk]

Yeah, man, this MUBB team just can't rebound today!

[MuggsyB]

Chase got that but give the ball up on a 2 on 1.  Let's go now!

Elite-level basketball seems to favor taking it yourself these days, but do agree he should've given that one up.

Cmon Stevie.  Why so much dribbling?

Forcing a quick shot for the 2-for-1.

[MuggsyB]

Count that!  Wow.

[Tyler COLEk]

Rossss. Nice to get that back to 10.

[MUEng92]

There will be no eruption before halftime, says Chase Ross

Disagree on that one. I think he played it right. Had a chance for an and 1 where the only possible person who could get a rebound with a miss was an MU player.

The MU player was trailing too far behind, would have been too easy to defend if he gave it up.

[forgetful]

Man, Ross was fouled 4 times at the end again.

[dpucane]

I'm glad they're seeing this zone early in the season

[MuggsyB]

Laapas is really infuriating me.  We all know how bad he is but do your fking job dude.

[Herman Cain]

Excellent Defense in first half. Lets keep up the energy second half.

CONSTANTLY

I don't think it's debatable.

Great job so far but gonna need to keep the foot on the defensive pedal out of the half. Dayton shot 1-9 from deep. I've got a feeling they're gonna pull a Colorado and shoot more closely to their average in the second.
