NCAA First Round: Arkansas Little Rock v. Purdue Game Thread

[Schnelk]

The pregame staff thoughts were to not only pound it inside but to have a complimentary outside game.

 

[PU pit bull]

Ray PU needed that one!

 

[Schnelk]

Ray Day for 3!!!

 

[BBG]

If that's not happening, that's on Painter. .

Somehow I doubt he is telling the players to jack threes and NOT get it inside.

 

[PU pit bull]

Let's keep it rolling!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Schnelk]

That was really nice Johnny!

 

[GodFamilyCountryPurdue]

NO rebounding, we shoot 3s even though we shouldn't and they don't go in. UALR shoots and makes them. Explains why we are losing. Purdue is not playing the style we have seen all year that has worked. Street ball. We will lose if we don't change play calling. Remember IL/UM in BTT? Literally when underneath almost every time. If that's not happening, that's on Painter. OUR GAURDS ARE NOT WHY WE ARE HERE. Inside or nothing -- last resort, kick out.

Seriously, man, enough. You're an idiot. We have to shoot the wide open 3s. It will pull their 5 guys out of the paint.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

There you go.....triple team down low with all five defenders near the paint....GOTS to make em pay, Ray!

 

[OrdinaryGatsby]

You guys want them to feed the post, but they are doubling AJ before he has even caught the ball lol

 

[boilerSF]

I get it now. We can't go low because they are playing zone and we are scared to pass. So keeping it high. Recipe for disaster.

 

[bonefish1]

Wow... Hill showing some discipline not jacking up The open 3.

 

[BoilerBiker]

Can we just get some ball racks if it's only going to be a 3 point contest?

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

they are seriously packing it in. i would put dakota at point and bring in cline or stephens.

 

[PU pit bull]

didn't they just travel too

 

[Schnelk]

I hate this grab and slap allowed on one end only.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

smh

 

[PU pit bull]

Vinny is being aggressive..........me likes

 

[bonefish1]

Vince needs to attack on every possession.

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

not even guarding hill

 

[boilerSF]

So Painter either never makes adjustments or only does it in the tourney? I get confused keeping track of the Painter criticism.

Now you are being cute with reply. When we can get out of the sweet 16 under Painter, i'll keep my mouth shut. We've had now two teams with excellent talent and not a hell of a lot to show for it.

 

[PU pit bull]

bad call .............again.......total flop

 

[Augie85]

officials suck ass

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

I had a "flashback" with VE's move.....nice way to try and slice up the d.

 

[Schnelk]

Underdog infatuation.

 

[yiana]

Lol flop city

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

and of %^&%ing course......Ray drains the three, which doesn't court.......goodness gracious.

 

[boilerSF]

Seriously, why are we shooting 3 after 3? This is becoming absurd. Is Painter asleep?

 

[BBG]

Lol flop city

Caught that play and yeah was a flop

 

[PU pit bull]

anti PU crowd sounds like LOL

 

[PaBoiler78]

bad call .............again.......total flop

took 3 points away too.

 

[StateStreet123]

Vinny is being aggressive..........me likes

Me too. But just quit turning it over, VE.

And me hopes Lil Wayne Soshi doesnt suddenly get hot on us....

 

[BBG]

It's on the players to execute the plays. Like I said, I HIGHLY doubt Painter isn't telling them to work inside-out.

 

[mryankee2397]

poor shooting and too many turn overs. recipe for a loss

 

[boilercss]

Best shooters coach has ever recruited...smh

 

[Dandelion1972]

Caught that play and yeah was a flop

Can't call a charge when the defender is moving backwards!

 

[bonefish1]

I hate this grab and slap allowed on one end only.

Please don't start bitching about the officials.

 

[JohnnyDoeBoiler]

The major issue in this game is that Purdue isn't moving the ball side to side to get LR moving that will prevent the quick double on the bigs.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

anti PU crowd sounds like LOL

Well...you have the Iowa State fans who have stayed probably pulling for the upset....naturally, plus the "underdog" factor as others have said. Boilers have to start playing with a little more urgency.

 

[honey_badger]

the slow-down strategy will backfire on UALR eventually, it will and it will be a blow-out with about 11 minutes to go in the 2nd half, trust me

 

[PaBoiler78]

It's on the players to execute the plays. Like I said, I HIGHLY doubt Painter isn't telling them to work inside-out.

get Davis out of there.
