I'm going to a friend's house to watch the game, so will probably be unable to do updates. Putting this up a few hours early. Schedule gets markedly easier after this, but that also means its one of our last chances for another statement win.

Boy we just got major thumbs down for our chances by the CBS network guys!
Play tough D and hang in it to the end!

Two timeouts this early. Not encouraging.

This is more like it. They're getting to the rim even thiugh they're seeing a lot of pressure. Up 6 at the media T.O.

We got away from what was working and decided to start jacking up wild 3's. Not smart.

VCU is tough hopefully we keep it close and steal a win at the end. Need to penetrate the lane that seems to be what VCU gives you. They guard the 3 well.

Like I said VCU is avg def & off AS LONG as you don't play into their pressure. You attack them and they can be had.

If he hits the bank shot we should be good, I love when bad shots go in.

I don't like this stall ball the last two plays. They have to attack.

Good, solid half there. I'm gonna say this now, and I mean it, we're gonna need 4 to 5 good minutes from Dunn in the second half so the other guys can get some rest in. VCU gonna wear them down otherwise.

Good first half for the Explorers. They need to keep attacking in the second half and stay away from jacking up wild shots. The D needs to get even more intense. The Rams will come out fired up.
It was a fun half though.

Up 9 at the half. Their crowd and pressure D has not intimdated us so far.
bring the same game to the 2nd half

Great first half, obviously need two good halves. Zack played well. Gotta love Duren too.

Really nice job by La Salle at this point. I was concerned when we burned two timeouts in the first minute and twenty seconds. But obviously, Gianninni has the guys looking for the free man whenever VCU uses that "trap" or "havoc" defense, whatever you want to call it.[/size]

VCU is very talented, in very good physical condition, and extremely well-coached.
It says a lot about La Salle that they've been able to pick holes in the Virginia Commonwealth defense and take this halftime lead.

Does this team EVER run set offensive plays? The 4 guys without the ball stand around more than any other team I've seen.

Both teams look like they could've benefitted from an extended halftime. Slow and beaten down so far.[/size]
