Zylstra playing big minutes at PG = Dave Rose is terrified about that position

Still surprised that the coaching staff wasn't able to turn Jimmermania into a decent PG recruit given Carlino being out until December and KC heading out on a mission.

Well I am straight up surprised by Zylstra. He's doin work out there for real.

I don't like him running point though.

I've been on commercial break for about 5 minutes. Is it half time or something?

Yeah. BYU down by 9 I think. Italy went on a little run at the end.

Carlino was heaven sent as far as Rose was concerned. We should be ok until december with this bunch.

Zylstra is doing a better job of bringing the ball across half court, however neither him nor Martineau are good at anything else.

Of course the team will be ok. They've got some talent and they're well coached. But bringing in a JC PG seemed to make a lot of sense given what the PG options are outside of Carlino and current high school recruiting prospects at PG.

It is a big opportunity for the program to build on the past two seasons and not having Carlino or another decent PG option to play the majority of the OOC season will make that tough.

What kind of tournament is this? There is exactly NO ONE in the stands.

[BGRTHNUMEGO]

Yeah. It's also why they jacked 22 3-pointers in the first half if I understood that graphic correctly.

3-15 from 3 I think. I think their stats show FTs first, then FGs, and then 3ptA.

Yeah my Greek is bad.

Opening with Rogers at SF. I like going zone with a line-up like that (Davies/Hartsock/Rogers/Abouo/PG), and then letting Rogers have a mismatch on the offensive end.

[Surfah]

Well it seems as though Italy's coach has now said quit effing around. Bargnani is doing work. BYU looks so small out there.

[BGRTHNUMEGO]

Bargnani looks like Larry Bird + Rick Mahorn against Hartsock. It takes a lot to make Bargnani look tough.

[LiveCoug]

I guess Italy wasn't fond of letting a college team stick around for a half.

[Surfah]

Abouo is probably 1-7 for shots inside 3' today.
