Big old log jam in the middle. This week’s homestand against two teams on rolls will have a big impact on the rest of our season. Have to at least go 1-1.

I’ve been watching Sevilla brothers in the EBAL for many years. His parents are really nice people, and Connor is a kid anybody can root for!

His older brother is now at Idaho. His oldest brother was at Sonoma State and younger brother is tearing it up as a junior at Daugherty Valley

absolutely! My wife is currently looking at tonight’s games to figure the best outcomes for us! Bako won’t be in Henderson, nor will Riverside. Who else will be left out? I’m feeling better about our odds.

What I like about Stokes is that he’s scrappy snd pisys bigger than his size. He gets rebounds and isn’t afraid to muscle up on defense. Hopefully this game gives him confidence in offense - he’s been so reluctant to take shots!

Conner saved us on offense along with Daugherty

That was UGLY.

he definitely had a ‘representative’ helping with his transfer

This is painful to watch. Down 5 with 12 to go.

Starting to think it was a good idea to get insurance on my flight to Vegas

I get starting Stokes and Daugherty to send a message about defense…..but it’s out a damper on our offense.

I’m a big Stokes fan (he defends and rebounds) but he’s SO reluctant to shot. Niko is a bit off. We need a few 3’s to go down, and (I hope) we roll.

Ugly half ends with us up 36-35. We screw up another last possession (I like Wilson but he’s not TY). No points from Wilson or Chappell, only a late 3 points from Cooper. I don’t like his this hand is progressing.

I feel a bit Schizophrenic texting to myself!

Bako’s approach is muck up the game as much as possible. Lots of grabbing, backcourt pressure…we really should beat these guys easy

Camera work, agsin, is terrible. I like this announcing pair from what I remember. Offense is really out of sync

Stokes and Daugherty started, I’m guessing for offense. Up 5-2 after 4:00. Sluggish on offense with that lineup

this is a 2:00 tip-off, correct?

this one is critical; can't allow Bako to have a tiebreaker over us, just in case the 2nd half of the road-heavy schedule takes us down toward the bottom of the conference. They don't have nearly the firepower of CSUN, and i can't imagine Alexander going off again.

that last sentence summed up my thoughts - we had a chance to really go up big, but let them back in with weak inside defense. And to continue my harp, the potential 5 point swing in the last 29 seconds of the half really hurt. We were on a 8-0 run with the ball and 20 seconds left. Did the clear out and were left with a very difficult driving shot by Wilson - miss, snd they hit a mid court shot at the buzzer. We don’t do a great job with getting a shot on s last possession - that sequence gave them life. Of course, when you get outscored by 20+ in the second half, it’s probably moot…but…symbolic of not being able to put them away

points in the paint : 52-26.

worse - to Bakersfield! That was our worst half since Oregon, on both ends

0-7 from the arc this half - that’s a killer. Free throws haven’t been great either

Seems like we hit a wall at the half

0-5 from 3 this half, down 69-58 12:00 to go

Lousy start to the half, outscored 11-2, down 55-50 at the 16:00 mark. That stupid sequence at the end of the half really changed things.

Nico on the bench with 3 fouls and 3 point shooting getting ice cold
