Hawks are 12.5 point favorites with the over/under at 132.5.

That’s a big spread it seems after they just had a big win and we had a tough setback. I think they played us very tough in Trask last year as I recall. They definitely have some talent with good bigs judging from what I saw when they played Richmond.

I just want to see good ball and player movement tomorrow to go with intensity and fire on defense. I’m also okay with extending the bench tomorrow too after a tough game to get everyone rolling and pulling on the same rope. We will need energy tomorrow.

I saw that only 100 tickets are left for game today.

No changes on the line or over/under.

It is my understanding that the game may be halted because the refs have worn out their whistles. Some more may have to be shipped in.

Embarrassing loss. They foul out 3 starters and we still can't manage to win at home. Left 15 points at the three throw line. Time to get back to basics!

There was clearly a hangover from the game Wednesday. Not having Shy hurt us.

Teams will stack the lane and dare Hawks until they prove otherwise. Lineup may need tweaking now to give us a lift. Ross needs some 3- ball looks. I’m okay with working in Hodge too. We looked tired and the ball movement wasn’t there again. Hodge helps there.

Give Tribe credit. They didn’t fold and took advantage of the defensive game plan. Our base defense is solid normally so next time we need to play them straight up.

Thinking a bit more about it, we really need to get Amari going- he has been efficient when his number is called. He is undervalued as a post scorer and then we could work inside out from there, if necessary. This would help our 3-point shooting percentages as well. Good ball movement would facilitate a good post feed but that can be done. An emphasis on it will surely be in the future.

It’s just harder to score when you go iso without enough ball/ player movement because everyone can cheat over some because they can see what is coming.

That's the plan, but he can't stay out of foul trouble. He isn't undervalued at all, everyone knows what he can do.

3 certainties in life, Death, Taxes and Shy and Amari in foul trouble

Unless Shy is sick like last Saturday.
