IU loses two at Maui Invitational

IU shot 11-for-20 from beyond the arc, but only 10-for-19 at the free throw line.

“We didn’t talk for two days after he chose to go to Oregon”, Mike Carter said. We haven’t been doing that exactly.

“Well, we’re six games in, okay, it’s the end of November”, Crean said. That free-throw line disparity was a big reason for UCLA’s 80-77 loss.

Four UNLV players scored in double figures for the game, lead by Patrick McCaw’s 20 points.

Jones and Anderson scored eight points each during a 22-9 run the Highlanders used to take control with 8:03 to play. “I think this game we started off very well defensively and offensively”. “That’s how I look at it. Coach said we’re going to go look at the film, and guys like us just want to get better from it”. We showed a lot of toughness. Wake Forest had 18 offensive rebounds in this basketball game. Once they got to the island and started playing against quality opponents, things changed a bit and they became a bit more glaring.

“I wish I might have shot faked or something better, but that play’s over”, Zeisloft said. “We just went through some stretches where we didn’t execute as well as we needed to execute against their zone”.

Nwamu missed two free throws with 7.1 seconds left, and IN gave the ball back to UNLV on a 5-second count on the inbounds. There’s not a lot of time for celebrating, to be honest with you. They pressured us and we didn’t really move the ball.

Indiana, as presently constructed, is a fatally-flawed team that depends on a attribute in shooting that is fickle by nature to win basketball games.

Welsh finished 9 of 12 from the field. I’ve actually been preparing for games so I haven’t seen or listened to any of the broadcast, so I’ll make sure I do that.

To get an idea of how rare that is, Luke Walton is now the head coach of the Golden State Warriors. Gielo added 13 points for the Rebels (4-2). Kevin (Stallings, coach) has said it’s the most unselfish team he’s had. “We had a couple moments today where we did get it back, but we also some moments where the game was up for grabs and we didn’t do a great job”.

Yesterday, I was anxious about LSU not being able to make a run in the NCAA tournament. “So, we’ve got to turn around and get ready here in a hurry”. Goodluck Okonoboh was called for goaltending on consecutive UCLA possessions, giving the Bruins a 27-22 lead…. The Commodores were never threatened in the second half and led by as many as 24 points.

For UNLV, it’s a nice win, something that could come in handy down the way.

This turned out to be a dashing turn of evens for the Hoosiers, who felt they had a chance to win the Maui Invitational. “That’s why we focus on it’s every play throughout the course of 40 minutes”.

UNLV’s largest lead of the game – 15 points – followed a shot clock violation against freshman forward Juwan Morgan.

Wake will play Vanderbilt in the semifinals on Tuesday while in will take on St. John’s in the consolation round of the tournament. The Commodores will return to the court Wednesday night to face the victor of Tuesday’s Kansas-UCLA game for the preseason tournament’s title.
