The first of those two 3s was off of HU's fourth airball of the night.
HU shooting 19/59. This team's shooting in a major funk over several games right now. Everyone trying to create a shot 1-on-1, off the dribble. No player movement, no cutting, no ball movement to get open 2s, only for 3s.
Silverio took three 3s and none even hit the rim. On a brighter night despite not shooting well Tareq was huge tonight with so many key rebounds. Also good to see Jalen with a pep in his step so to speak, looks like he’s over whatever injury he had. Jalen is .397% three point shooter for his career and over 40% so far this year which is really impressive especially considering he shoots from the corners so much. As dreadful as Kante is I will admit he was a lot better late in the game. I’ll gladly take the win as Hofstra is now 24-2 in their last 26 games at the Mack.
Kante - is a "Beast"? hes a forward not a center (plays even smaller then his size) hope there are better things to come - right now he is the Beast with the Least
Hughes - first guy off the bench; manos de Piedra
Truehart - had so much hope for him; seems happily content with getting his few minutes hoisting a 3 or 2
Schutte - hard worker; goes right up with ball; would be a nice back up if he was a 8-9 player
Pemberton - getting the minutes with little rest; battles; gets beat up (still believe that Politio, LOL); he was gased last night
Coburn - the streakiest player of all time; will always take an open shot no matter how cold hes been; never realized how high he gets up; a huge block, some steals and few nice boards made up for an terrible shooting night
Ray - our best player after Buie; our best shooter; much better all-around player then I've given him credit for
Buie - the point guard of point guards; does it all; if we had a Taylor from last year Buie would have double digit assists every night and probably 2 more steals a night
JAM - in prior seasons I have argued the JAM does use his bench enough; honestly I have to say - as of now I don't love anyone coming off our bench - so I concede that JAM is going play DB, JR, EP and TC 38+ minutes a game and it'll hurt us but I see no other alternative.
last night - a win is a win
