2/10 @ wiu

[HoopsBison]

Bison head to WIU to take on the Leathernecks. Crucial game for seeding purposes in Sioux Falls, Bison currently sit in the 4 spot right now, tied with UMKC and a half game behind ORU. WIU is a 1 pt favorite at home tonight. WIU defeated the Bison in Fargo earlier this season but neither Nelson or Morgan played in that game.

Tip is set for 6pm and live video feed is available thru the WIU athletic site.

[ndsubison1]

WIU is favored by 1 at most books it seems. Draft Kings has NDSU favored by 1. My book has WIU -1.5, if it gets to 2, I may have to put a bet on the Bison.

[KSBisonFan]

Leathernecks website says game is on ESPN+ and I did find it on the ESPN+ menu.

Regardless, it'll be the WIU broadcast crew which is always good. Bison better be ready to play. If we come out flat or go through one of our scoring droughts, we'll get beat. I'll be watching to see how we decide to defend Massner and Barisic. They went off for 31 and 28 last game and WIU put up 90 on us. Our defense needs to be much better and much tougher.

Richy still starting Skunberg...cmon get GRANT NELSON in starting lineup

[Schwarz04]

LOL here we go. How long of a run does WIU need to go on before Dave remembers what a timeout is?

[Kujava23]

Howw longgggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg dooooo i need to watch CRAB DRIBBLES one on one to 3' for WIU to score

RICHY ADJUST damn one guy crabbed dribbled from the 3 pt line

Great defense

[Hansel]

Nice dunk by Grant

[KSBisonFan]

Nelson bringing some violence to the rim!!

[Kujava23]

Rocky can you GUARD a guy in the post---asking for a friend

[KSBisonFan]

Rocky just gives up way to much ground down low.

[Kujava23]

Rocky took a charge----after 5 crab dribble......he adjusted

[KSBisonFan]

MHH with some good minutes so far. Always brings the energy.

[Kujava23]

Morgan 2-2 in his 90 seconds of PT

[Kujava23]

MHH with some good minutes so far. Always brings the energy.

Yeah but don't get too excited Richy will keep his minutes under 12

[El_Chapo]

Grant 3-3
Morgan 2-2

should have 10 and 5 shots per half for these 2. we've all.seen enough of the other way.

[KSBisonFan]

Terrible charge call against Morgan.

[Hansel]

37- 33 Bison at the half

[El_Chapo]

52% to 35% shooting helping ndsu.

wiu sucks

[EC8CH]

Terrible charge call against Morgan.

Absurd call.

[KSBisonFan]

WIU with 7 offensive boards.

[westnodak93bison]

Just put the game on. I've watched maybe 7 quarters this year.

Only 2 assists at half? Who are our go to guys?

[Hansel]

Now 47-33 after the Eady and 1

[Hansel]

Big dunk from Rocky to make it 49-33

[KSBisonFan]

Rocky abused the rim to go up 49-33.

[tjbison]

NDSU should implement a tanning program..lots of white out there

[Schwarz04]

NDSU sucks so bad. They literally are incapable of putting a team away…

[Kujava23]

Forcing bad shots will stop you from pulling away from a team......

Just saying.....

We figure out how to do it every game. Get up by a ton then just flip a switch for 5-7 minutes and stop playing.

We've had some good shots in the paint but haven't been able to make them.

[Kujava23]

Can we bench older players who are forcing shots and turning the ball over.....curious

Or do they HAVE to play 35 plus minutes??

[Kujava23]

Looks familiar to game in Fargo-----better be a different result

[Schwarz04]

Full clown mode now.

[tjbison]

Gone to shit again

[KSBisonFan]

16 point lead is gone.

[Bison03]

We should have got in a hole again…

[HoopsBison]

We are playing so scared and soft...frustrating not being able to put a team away. Sure looks like we will let this game slip away. Hope im wrong.

[El_Chapo]

what kind of air ball was that Sam?

down 3 at Western fuckin Illinois w 5 min left

[tjbison]

This should be a team they beat easily, just deflating

[KSBisonFan]

No team makes offense look more difficult than we do.

[Schwarz04]

This is so fucking dumb and predictable.

[Schwarz04]

No team makes offense look more difficult than we do.

How many consecutive shots can be missed in the paint?

[tjbison]

Confused, cook didnt Cook get taken out by the WIU guy???

[EC8CH]

Eady clearly fouled on follow up... No call.

[Kujava23]

Nice play design....looks like im watching the NBA

[Bison03]

Bd call on that Rocky foul. Not a great shot by Sam. Heading to OT

[tjbison]

Wow.........wtf

[El_Chapo]

Sam w a great shot, hits the base w his knee

refs don't stop, wiu layup. clown show refs.

[Kujava23]

Yeah blow it dead....guy down on court after made shot

[tjbison]

Remember who the refs are

This is the best way I have seen to explain the garbage pile that is Richman's complete shit pile of an offensive scheme.

[Bison03]

They dont do that. Play stopped when you get the ball back. You could fake an i jury on a breakaway.

double overtime vs western illinois. haha

Setup a shot for Cook????

Well done again.

[Schwarz04]

Well we literally did everything we could to let them tie it up again. 4 straight looks at 3. All Eady has to do is hold the ball and get fouled…

[KSBisonFan]

We had 6 assists on 30 fgs.

[HoopsBison]

Happy to be wrong but this team needs to have a killer instinct up 16 with this group we need to bury them. Instead we get soft and lazy with a little ball pressure from WIU. Big to get this win though, guys played a lot of minutes tonight coming off a tough game monday. Will be interesting to see what kind of legs they have on Saturday.

Very different than football or baseball. It's very common to get and lose big leads. It happens to even the best college teams and in the NBA.

You are not wrong and I understand its a game of runs, but good/great teams have the ability to seperate themselves. Whens the last time this group has done that (St Thomas game prolly). There have been numerous games this season where we have built a 10+ point lead only to give all the momentum back to the opponent. We play a ton of close games, and Ill give credit to the guys they are finding ways to win but could we get a stress free win once in awhile.

[slips]

Glad they got the win tonight don't get me wrong. What is this process HC DR talks about. I see we are up to 10 minute droughts without a FG. These droughts have been plagging us last couple years. Is this team supposed to just flip a switch come tourney time?

I wonder what happened that got us down by 15 in the first place??

I wonder what happened that got us down by 15 in the first place??WIU could say the same thing tonight. Purdue has the #3 team in the country and they lost by 24 tonight to a team that was 12-9.

I am sensing a lot of negativity here regarding the play of the team in the last few pages of posts; do all you posters realize you will incur the rath of that dipshit, shithead, pud fuck unbison by posting derogatory comments of coach DR and the team? Unless, of course, you, like I, don't give a rat's ass what that shit-for-brains posts...............continue.

Classic richman team. Beginning of the year you wonder whether we even going to make the tournament now we're nearing the end and are in contention to be #2. Which will get us a favorable spot and we don't have to have SDSU until championship game and they've just had 2 "give them our best shot" games and we'll take them down and get a 15 or 16 seed... Stop me if you've heard this story.

Oddly in a way I've seen Chapo's point for a few years now. Richman is a far cry from Saul or Tim in style. That said Saul was 134-84 and Dave is 136-87 prior to this year. Saul benefited from a great NCAA win and was able to get a higher paying job from it. Not sure what Dave's ambitions are but his personality is not on level of Saul's or Tim where they were more extroverted and seemingly more engaging in interviews with media. Dave doesn't really have a wow factor game that he's won. Closest was when we gave Gonzaga a run for their money. Tim had Wisconsin and Marquette. Saul had one or two semi big ones plus Oklahoma in the tournament.

Richman is the coach we deserve given the institutional support of the men's basketball program. Good by Summit League standards but below average by mid-major standards.

[Mr Meaty]

Terrible charge call against Morgan.

Watch the replay and ref on baseline was calling a flop.....He was right. Ref out top could not see if there was any contact from his spot on the court.

Good points

Richman and his staff have done a great job recruiting

Richman and his staff have done a good job of finding ways to win

Richman and his staff have not done a good job of developing their talent over the years

Richman and his staff have not done a good job of creating an offensive system that takes advantage of their talent

Richman and his staff have not done a good job of making game adjustments----remember they only worry about "US" not what other teams are doing to them that is successful

Agreed. The announcers even seemed surprised and commented how their guy (floppy mcflopperson) had a reputation for flopping and was called for 2 flops in the previous game.
