Dakota for 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love it......Dog Gone it!

 

[PU pit bull]

PU is .................................

right now

I hope Coach Painter doesn't start playing "stall ball" on every possession now.

 

[PU pit bull]

Beautifully done!!!!

 

[Boiler Wolf]

Credit to Biggie for finding the open man after the double team and credit to PJ and Dakota for hitting the open shots.

 

[Bethboilerfan]

What is the problem with coach of Penn State? They keep holding back - from what?

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

I need every light poured onto that court.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Finish strong, Boilers.

 

[nagemj02]

I think P.J. needs to go out and Carsen needs to come in the game.

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

arghhhhhhhh!

 

[BBG]

Friggin turnovers...

 

[bananabucket]

PJ -_-

 

[PU pit bull]

game is still ragged...........no one get hurt

 

[boilerpt]

Isn't that illegal to interfere with the inbounds before you come back in? I remember Neil Reed being t'd up at Kentucky for that same play.

 

[BBG]

Clutch. NOW PLAY SMART!

 

[nagemj02]

CE, Mathias, VE, Swanigan and...either Haas or Albrecht need to be the 5 on the court

 

[PU pit bull]

Biggie is frustrated to say the least..............

 

[GemstateBoiler]

I'm thinking...i need another drink.

 

[boilercss]

Maybe a zone would be effective against all this dribble drive and backing pj down?

yes, although, it may have been thought of as continuous action there....before VE had the ball....close.

 

[PU pit bull]

cmon Boilers................stop the penetration dam

 

[nagemj02]

PSU getting most of their baskets off of drives. Man-to-man is not the end-all, be-all D.

 

[BBG]

Man-to-man can do the same when not played lazily.

 

[IndySouthsider]

Wow I am shocked the poor execution at the end here

 

[Purdue Grad in Texas]

Goodness gracious.....white knuckle time......Boilers playing tentative the last minute or so,

 

[BBG]

PSU getting most of their basket off of drives. Man-to-man not the end-all, be-all D.

True but neither is zone. Neither defense "works" when playing lazy like we are tonight.

 

[PU pit bull]

get tough Boilers............you are not going to get any help now..........do it!!!!

 

[GemstateBoiler]

PSU is out of time-outs. Hold on guys

 

[boiler-deuce]

Our defense is horrendous. Being exposed by these young kids.

 

[nagemj02]

FINISH STRONG, BOILERS

 

[ahhculdee]

What the hell was that?

 

[nagemj02]

Vince needed to shoot that! He passed it up!

 

[ahhculdee]

Time to run out the clock.

 

[boilerpt]

How many shooters can pass up an open look??!!!

 

[BBG]

I haven't seen the box score, but it sure seems like we are getting out rebounded as well.

 

[cjf04]

Nobody wants to shoot....need CE back in...

 

[nagemj02]

What should be the options on the play that Painter draws up?

Also, put CE back in!
