UBinMD Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 19 minutes ago, Erie County said: too bad. starting 0-2 wont be fun We will probably win. We play to the level of our competition. We will likely not go into the game thinking we are better than them and will actually play close to our potential. Just my observation so far this season.

DocCas86 Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 One of the keys to this game will be perimeter defense. Akron has averaged about 42% of field goal attempts being 3s, shooting close to 35%. Akron has shot well recently winning 5 games in a row. It will be interesting to see if Akron is rusty having not played since 12/15. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was not stating the obvious they need to improve upon last game's performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe wishful thinking on my part, but a poor performance in this respect not a given tomorrow. Also if the point of this fan board is for people that were right about Whitesell to take a victory lap the rest of the season...knock yourselves out..I will still be rooting for them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on ESPN lines I got $1000 on UB +23 and the over 99. 😁 The team has to come out pissed and focused tomorrow. It's a great get right spot. Come on boys!

Let us both hope that in order for them to see the bigger picture they have to fail first. Kinda like a tearing down and building back up. Make them realize that they can’t win playing a selfish style and they have to recommit to the coach and each other. This post might piss some ppl off lol.

Need Skogman to have a game and maybe Jones or Hardnett bringing their games today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DooleyBull06 Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 2 minutes ago, yussi1870 said: More zone D That’s literally the opposite thing you do to a good perimeter shooting team. Also weakens your rebounding. Which will be an issue without Mballa. Akron does have a couple bigs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skrabukes Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Best team basketball I've seen from them in weeks. Can they keep passing and moving for 40 min? Let's hope 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
