All I know is Southern has made Bradley look really good. Maybe they’re catching BU at a bad time when they’re due to bounce back, but the defense just isn’t up to snuff, particularly on the perimeter.
Start recruiting athletes who can defend at this level or this is what’s going to happen. Bradley is quicker and faster at every single position.
Not PG 🙂
Like Illinois State does?

Defense looking much better this half and SIU hitting their shots still. Back to back 3's from Brown and Jones.
Brown is 4-9 from 3 and I'm giving him the green light anytime he's open. He might be the difference in this game.

The best thing about that is he missed and missed 5 in a row but he kept shooting them with confidence, and then hit the next 2 in a row. This might help him build confidence in the future when his shot isn't falling to keep shooting. I like it.
THat being said, I'd like to see SIU stop shooting NBA, and deeper, 3pt shots when they're wide open and don't have to.

Yeah I don't get it really. He's probably the best defender even if he isn't hitting 3's.
Brown with the offensive rebound and the reverse layup was sweet!

Brown the leading scorer with 14. Filewich putting in 9 points/7 rebounds. SIU's defense has been much better this half.
Someone needs to take TBs minutes. It’s that simple.
You were saying?
Some ugly possessions since the under 8 media timeout. Back to back shot clock violations and poor possessions after.
I'll tell you what, Filewich is one heck of a passer........and he's only a FR. His ceiling continues to go up, as does his floor.
SIU's lead has shrunk along with their recent 3pt shooting. As I said from the start of the game, they can (only) win this game if they hit a bunch of 3's

D'Avanzo with back to back baskets.

Without a doubt, our BEST entry passer to the big man down low. In fact, one of the best I've seen in a long time at SIU. It's truly a lost art.
