  1. More reps for Greer, there will come a time when we need his handle
  2. Miller Kopp continuing to stuff the stat sheets I'm especially impressed with this assist total so far
  3. Transfers continuing to throw it up, play defense, and handle the ball
  4. Benson feeling a little more confident and asserting himself
  5. Law continuing to show that he can go hard for a long time

I’m looking at Turner and Nance! Those guys can help us
 
Pardon hitting two or more mid-range jumpers
I heard he’s been working on extending his range out to the 3 point line.... not counting on that, but if successful, would be nice! Would help his chances of sneaking onto a pro roster somewhere. But considering his struggles with FT shooting in the past, I’m not gonna hold my breath.
 
Law looks amazing. Turner looks solid. Everyone else is off. American has an exceptional center and is well coached. We need all the bench to help out
 
Pardon has been on the money with his free throws so far. Looks much smoother and more confident than last year from the line.
 
At the half, Greer Law Taylor and Turner are showing me something. Still waiting for Kopp and Benson to make plays.

Agree. He has a funky FT release but is much smoother and accurate.

And we saw his first two (and hopefully last) 3 point attempts tonight!

Yes! Greer got lots of play and showed his handle and his vision. Next - let's see Greer make shots next game.

Miller Kopp continuing to stuff the stat sheets I'm especially impressed with this assist total so far
Not last night - off night for Kopp (vs first game and scrimmage)

Transfers continuing to throw it up, play defense, and handle the ball
Both Taylor and Turner are great adds - poor offensive game, but showing great defense and promise on offense

Benson feeling a little more confident and asserting himself
Mixed. Benson had some poor play - followed by much better play. He needs to be a factor this year!

Law continuing to show that he can go hard for a long time
Yes! What a great game on both ends for Law!

Taylor for a defensive player is a pretty good 3-point shooter. (Other than last night - a poor shooting night for him). I really haven't seen much defense from him at all. It's no accident that he and Gaines wore themselves out switching with each other late as offense/defense substitutions.

Turner's shots haven't been falling yet at all. I haven't paid sufficient attention to have an impression of his defense.

Same time, hate to have to play Law this many minutes in a preseason game. Those minutes can have a cumulative effect later in the year

I think you are getting Taylor and Turner confused.

The announcers on BTN+ were brutal and doing this the whole game.
I had the game on mute after listening to those guys for the first 2 minutes of the game. Just dreadful. Wish they just used the radio feed like they did for McKendree.

In fairness to how the broadcast progressed, the initial play-by-play guy was a fill-in who quickly tagged out when the real play-by-play guy showed up. Still, it wasn't good. But what do you expect? It was barely televised. They didn't even have replays.
