Game Thread: Northwestern vs. Georgia Tech

[jensberg]

A workman like win.71- 60. Really not that close.
4 in double figures. BB , NM, JL and TY.
The D was outstanding and really carried the day.
Guys off till Saturday at home against a much improved DePaul team. Let's get off to a good start and defend the home court.
Go Cats.

Still don't understand playing the starters right down to the last second

21 point lead 5 minutes ago why aren't the bench players in the game

IDK. Figure we will need one of the bench guys during the BIG season. Only have Two non-conference games left before we get into league play.

I think CCC wanted to give starters practice on holding a lead late in game and then it became about trying to preserve the quality of the win, which ironically ended up bring just an 11 pt win when it should've been closer to 20.

Hunger struggling (again and again)…

The man cannot jump, cannot defend, doesn't rebound well and can't score close to the basket. Too bad, because he has a decent shooting touch.

And he commits the softest fouls ever.

The 1st half of the Loyola game makes our 1st half look riveting in comparison

It was not an exciting game.

But who could have guessed that Ryan Mutombo would have had such a nice game after being left off of Cappy's scouting report!!!!

Motombo had not played in any of Georgia Tech's previous games... but his famous dad died on September 30, so that may have set him back. Just have to assume that coach Stoudamire is getting shredded over on the Georgia Tech message boards because the guy he's been playing (Doryan Onwuchekwa) looked like a goon.

Yeah, that was a miss by me, can't believe Rothstein didn't get the intel on that.

I was really hoping Mutombo would give us a finger wag
