Scouting Witchita

[tidwell]

hey everyone...does anybody know what time the game starts on saturday?

2:40cst, I think. Not exactly sure myself.

 

[GVF]

True, but if they have a question that is OBVIOUS it has been answered already, it doesn't take 5 seconds to use the 'search' function. That thread is on the second page of the board. I wouldn't have given this answer had I not already answered the question TWICE.

There's always cbssportsline.com or espn.com as well. Don't be so LAZY.

So did you get asked directly, or just threw in 2 cents on game time before you started policing. You could have just typed the game time. TWICE. The burden some people bear.

 

[orangetd88]

utsports says 3:40 eastern.

I think Witchita state can hang with us, but I think we hav momentum and alot of confidence after winning today. shots like those give teams big runs in the dance. ask duke, uconn, and maryland how shots like this can boost your teams confidence.

I'm just trying to get people to get off their butt and do their OWN legwork for once. Do you know how many people have asked me to make them avatars? I kindly explain to them how I did it, but none want to take the time to do it themself, they just want me to spend MY time doing the work. In a similar fashion, the information is not hard to find, it is on the board in MULTIPLE places, as well as on all the major sports sites and UTsports.com... Dear lord.

its ok its ok... btw I want a avatar of... eh nvm haha. just joking with yeah.

hehehe The funny part is that you were using one for a while b/c I just said "Hey, if you want this, here ya go..."

Anyway. It seems that everyone is talking up Wichita after today... CNN/SI called their game the most dominant performance of the day... I would have voted for UF or UCLA, but anyway... sounds like they are trying to ramp up to more calls for us to be upset... Maybe it is good mojo, who knows.

 

[vols2345]

who knows, wichita state blew out a very overrated seton hall team and the vols pulled a buzzer beater out aginst a underated winthrop. You can take that either way you want to.

Dude, it was just a game time question. :lol: The answer is 4 keys 3:40. Cut the guy some slack. We have all asked dumb questtions or repeated somthing that had already been asked.

 

[Crakaveli]

if we could hit some outside shots and if wingate and patterson play like they have been, we should win.

Greetings from Wichita.

Defense:

WSU does not play a stealing or shot-blocking D. WSU will try to pressure any pass or any shot. Neither Miller (6'10" C) nor Wilson (6'8" F) have exceptionally quick feet and neither one is a great leaper. Both can be beat by a really quick and athletic guy in the 6'8"+ range. Both are very good at fundamentals.

Couisnard (6'4") and Bradley (5'11" - bench) are lock-down defenders. Both are exceptionally athletic and can defend much taller players. They will get most of the minutes against any opponents best guard or wing.

Ogirri (6'2") is an adequate defender. Brauer (5'10") has problems with taller guards who can shoot over him. Brauer is scary quick, but is coached to use his quickness to cut off passing lanes instead of gambling on steals.

Offense:

You absolutely, positively must double Miller. The first offensive option is always Miller. Miller has some great post moves, a baby hook with either hand, a fade-away, and is accurate to about 17'. When Miller is doubled either Ogirri or Wilson moves to an open perimeter spot. They are both 40%+ 3-shooters and Miller is pretty good at finding them.

WSU isn't a great screening team. Most shots are set up by an inside-outside game. Wilson and Ogirri seem to be able to walk to open looks from behind the arc. Couisnard and Bradley will penetrate and attack the basket and don't care if there's a 7'1" guy waiting down there.

Bench:

Ryan Martin - 6'5" C/F Has a nose for the ball. Always seems to be in the right place at the right time.

Karon Bradley - 5'10" SG/PG - has a pull-up mid-range (12 - 15&#39 jumper. Runs some bqaseline moves.

Nick Rogers - Former Walk-on. Solid defender but makes mistakes on the offensive end unless he's hitting the 3's he tends to take.

Wendell Preadom - FR PG. Can D. Is not an offensive threat. Exceptional quickness, but is a Fr and can be prone to TO's.

Understood. But, some people really aren't that savvy on these boxes, even though the technology is far beyond when I started using them. What seems simple and visible to you as an accomplished user, is burdensome to others regardless of how effective you may be at explaining things clearly. I'm very accomplished in the business use side, but the creative side of creating that avatar would take me much longer although i would figure it out. Not trying to pick bones on you. Have no problem with your frustration and do understand your lashing out, but alot don't.

Thanks for the scouting report. I didn't get to see the game vs. SH but I looked like a very nice win. Welcome!

Welcome to the board and thanks for the information. Should be a fun game.

hehehe Are you that sad you think you can't ask me any questions?

Oh, and if you just want info from me, a PM will usually get a prety nice response. A favor however... a kind "no, sorry"
The gametime thing just grated me since there is an entire thread dedicated to it.
