If we go zone, they will absolutely kill us on put backs from offensive rebounds.

I would go to this game and cheer on the Aggies but the parking at Viejas SU-UCKS so bad it's not even funny. Not a whole lot of places to park around that campus
Then don't park. Take a Taxi or get an Uber.

Good point. I guess it's pick your poison, because match-up wise we're gonna killed man to man. Looking at you Funk! And to a lesser extent Max.

You aren't worried about Ashworth against their guards? We can't hide him tonight.

Absolutely I'm worried about that. I tend to give Ashworth a break because it's not for lack of effort (Funk) or botched assignments (Max). Individually we don't match up with anyone on SDSU. I'm also very concerned about ball security on the other end of the floor.

A wise old coach once told me that this is the time of year when teams either get better or worse, and outside of the Wyoming game, the last 5 outings have not been confidence inspiring.

SDS is going to be in Ashwoth’s shorts tonight. They will dare Shulga, Hamoda and RJ to step up and make their outside shots. Someone, anyone, has got to relieve Ashworth at PG so that he can come off sceens and have a decent look at 3-pointers. Otherwise we’ll see more 28-footers from him (a la Funk). The percentages won’t be in our favor if that’s the scenario that unfolds.

Does Ashworth not match up well with Trammell? Trammell is 5' 10", in terms of size this is one of the better matchups in the conference. I have not watched much of Trammell so don't have a good read on him but Ashworth should match up decently.

Yeah, that’s one that is probably going to be ok for us. Also, Butler and Seiko are 6’2” and 6’3” respectively. We aren’t completely overmatched there. If we get Shulga, RJER, or even better, Bairstow matched up on one of them, it should be to our advantage. Everywhere else, we are going to struggle. We need Dorius and Akin to go hard at Mensah and Johnson and see if we can get some early fouls on them. That will open the lane up which should open the outside shot. I think they come out overplaying the outside shot and will force our guards into Mensah in the lane. We need to attack him and the post player needs to be ready for the dump off. If we can’t score inside, we are dead in the water.

Isn't Arop hurt? I know he didn't play much against Wyoming.
Arop is ok and will play. Seiko was sick but is back.

Mensah did tweak his ankle at Air Force. I expect Nate to play but I don't think he is 100

The Aztecs have not closed out on 3 shooters very well this year.

Welp, flush this one.

Can’t hit a 3, down by 20 in the first half. Not good.

Looking very much like a good NIT team this year.

Our defense is not good. Every game we play someone who has not been playing good goes off on us. Seiko hit 6 3 pointers. Offensive rebounds has hurt as well.

Good NIT team? This is a team that makes the NIT due to inflated metrics and loses in the first round by 100 just like last season.

Seiko averages 6 ppg. At the half he has 6 3 pointers. Lol

He came into this game shooting 8/12 from 3. We are just leaving him wide open everywhere.

I am so glad there wasn't 3 more minutes left. It was "nervous time" in Viejas.
