Little Rock's defense is smothering. I hope SIU's can look like that this year.

Domask with 8 points early. SIU 4-6 from 3. Looking good so far!
Apparently they gave Coupet a 2 on his wide open corner 3. That would be unfortunate because he was wide open.
I've watched Ben play about 5 minutes and he not only will be starting, but might be our most athletic player. He can shoot, defend, rebound.............. he adds something unique to this team.
The backdoor screen cuts to the basket and the transition offense is mouth-watering so far
SIU out-rebounding Little Rock 16-8 so far. This is a welcoming sign.
Verplanken at the point. That will help down the road if he can give some quality minutes.
Ready to see more Mulia.
They having all kinds of technical probs with this broadcast. My pet peeve, not being able to see how much time left.
Great start; liking what I'm seeing so far on both sides of the ball.
Too many TO's...... Jones now with 4.
Back to back turnovers from Jones. Little Rock is really aggressive on defense.
Good start so far. Coupet looks like he came off the 1987 team, love it.

SIU's offense has started to stall, really want to see a nice finish to the half and to not give them any momentum. Too many turnovers so far (7)
Big shot for Verp after lead was cut to 6.
