Toledo vs. Spiders in game

[spider23]

Half time crew just said Richmond came out so flat. We have been saying that all year. I know sman always contends we are not flat, but we often are. Announcers also talked about how bad our defense was for most of the half. We are in it and hope we can pull it out but Announcers highlighting l the Mooney shortcomings tonight.

 

[Dr. Spidey]

Score?

74-65 St. Bonaventure.

 

[SFspidur]

Cayo 1-for-6. Grace with 0 points, 0 boards, and just 1 assist. That ain’t going to get it done.

Gilly, Burton, and Sal showing something, but Sal’s gotta figure out how to stay on the court.

All true. Also, our defense was almost as bad as the announcers.

Not bad to be down only 6. Jackson has done nothing but still needs to get that 3rd foul on him early. Still feel too fast pace for UR to keep up 2nd half. Grace shoots an air ball 3, then doesn't get back on defense to prevent uncontested layup. Unacceptable.

Did I hear the announcer say Nick got hurt in the 2nd game of the year? I was just settling and maybe didn't hear him correctly.

Yes you did.

 

[Spider B]

We desperately need an A10 calibre center or two. Good mins again for Sal. Hes a good A10 bench player. But tonight, he should play 18 mins in the second half out of position @ center.

 

[97spiderfan]

Grace with an air ball for 3, turns his head in shame, unaware that the ball is still live and then gets toasted down the court for an "and 1". He should not see the court for the rest of the game on that one play alone.

 

[SpiderGuy]

Yes you did.

Then looks like they prepped well and mispronouncing names.

 

[Dr. Spidey]

We keep Sal in we might have a chance.

I think most of what Sal needs is confidence. He’s been on such a short leash for so long. Needs the freedom to know if he makes a mistake, he won’t get yanked right away.

He said “early in the season.” ... so early, the season hadn’t even started yet!

I think Sal is a better option than Grace but he’s going to get bumped out of position over and over

 

[Spider B]

I'll take that chance

 

[SpiderK]

Grace is a non-factor on either end of the floor

 

[Dr. Spidey]

Bafoon refs call a phantom tip and then a block for a foul. Wtf

 

[PhillySpider]

I think Sal is a better option than Grace but he’s going to get bumped out of position over and over

So is Grace no?

 

[SpiderK]

Somebody box out just one effing time in the Mooney era.

 

[Dr. Spidey]

#FireMooney

 

[Spider B]

Getting crushed on glass by a MAC team.

 

[I-M-UR]

So is Grace no?

I agree but Sal has some post offense and some defense .... Grace not so much

 

[PhillySpider]

Our problem is generally not that we don’t box out and most bad rebounding teams actually box out decently. The problem is that we have no one other then Burton that goes and gets the ball. That and not boxing out is what gets rebounds. You have to very aggressively go get the ball not just box out and wait for it to come to you. We simply don’t go get it. Hell on the offensive glass we are affirmatively coached to NOT go get it.

cut his space pirate ass

 

[PhillySpider]

Sal with another tip in. Mooney will bench him any minute as that not allowed

 

[PhillySpider]

And the good and the bad with Sal as he takes a bad foul

 

[PhillySpider]

Grace taking over?.

 

[Ferrum Spider]

Look at the energy coming from the bench. Also like Gilyards story on his brother Roman.

 

[Dr. Spidey]

I’ve never seen Grace make those kind of moves before.

 

[SFspidur]

Effort?! Is that what I’m seeing?!

 

[Spider B]

Grace playing under the basket and he got a rebound!

 

[RichmondNative]

Grace taking over?.

Apparently he must have learned something guarding Golden in practice. Never tried post moves before maybe he realized he isn’t playing an A10 team.

Yes, Golden on the bench is more into this game than the remainder of the guys all year. Like Grant's passion.

 

[Dr. Spidey]

Your friendly local neighborhood drug dealer Littleson just layed it in no contest

 

[PhillySpider]

if We defend and rebound we will,win. But I am not overly optimistic.

 

[spider23]

Was that kuliju, that was funny, I like our walk ons.

 

[nathanw19]

Wilson works HARD. Going to really enjoy it watching him the next 3 years.

 

[SFspidur]

Love watching Cayo work.

 

[PhillySpider]

We need to get stops

 

[Dr. Spidey]

Lol Toledo is shook right now
