Ham Jam has been huge today. Knocking down open 3s. Ham is a good player. Smart player. Really deserving of the minutes he is getting.

Do we really have to review a normal push off?

FW is flopping more than a soccer team. It’s ridiculous

Definitely a foul and dumb move, but an even better flop.

Solid win. Probably need the next 2 for a chance at the 5 seed

My only question to Lundy is why wasn’t Ham playing this much earlier? Kid hustles harder than anyone, plays within his ability and doesn’t try to do too much.

Panthers improve to 4-9 against peer competition with BJ versus 4-3 without.
Don't shoot guys, I am just the messenger. 😉

Bart Lundy on the radio postgame show:
We went into this trying to play 2-3 zone. It didn't work very well. We made adjustments on the fly.
They defended our shooters. If you guard BJ one on one or two on two with ball screens he is going to make you pay.
So proud of D Ham to finish up like this.
We got to keep going. Got to get the best seed we can. It would not be so bad if we win at home (in the first round) and then go up to Green Bay.

Solid win. Probably need the next 2 for a chance at the 5 seed Just doing some quick math in my head, if Milwaukee wins out AND Cleveland State wins out, we would get the 5 seed by virtue of winning a three way tiebreaker with Cleveland State and Green Bay

10-8, tied for 6th. Would need to win both and probably have GB , Northern Kentucky and Wright St lose out to get into the top 5. One more win, clinches a home game, in all likelihood

I guess I’m ignorant as to how the tiebreakers work, but aren’t we still in play for the 4 seed? GB lost again today and has to go on the road to Cleveland St and then play us at home. We could be playing Saturday for the same conference record as them. NKU and WSU both have tough games and then play head to head the last game of the season. Aren’t there scenarios where we can still top 4?

BJ is playing a hell of a game so far. I was told he was a deterrence to the team though… PFW is one of the worst defensive teams in the country, Did BJ have a good offensive game 100 percent. Did they cook him for about 10 straight points in the second half also 100 percent. I actually wonder if some of you get off on trying to refute stats based takes by some of us who watch the game closely. Then again judging from the bellyaching about the refs at the game today I assume you just aren't watching whats happening on defense. Of course we will be tough to be shooting 50 percent from 3. We only won by 8 turning the ball over and shooting perhaps our best game of the year. We shot nearly 70 percent in the second half a loss today with that happening would have been an absolute disaster class of defensive ineptness. We gave up 20 points in the first 4 minutes of the second half, things like that are we I and some other posters are harping on, its great and glorious when the 3s and tough shots are falling, but when they arent we almost always lose. Do I wish freeman would go 15 of 24 everygame and offset his defensive shortcomings of course. Or that Ham and EJ will hit their shots also duh I want the team to win. The issue is that wont be the case and its not realistic to expect. IE why isnt Ham playing more, its being hes a limited player on offense and too small to be a major impact defender who plays himself out of position. Did he play good today of course but to expect that of him game in and game out is unrealistic.
Good Win More Davis and Murchison please.

I was sitting in the same arena you were, watching the same game. BJ had 38 pts (2 turnovers) and you still nitpick something. I choose to enjoy watching an offensive masterclass by BJ while also WINNING...you can chose to complain that is fine. We are all free to have our own opinions.

My buddy said that a LOT of money was moving towards the Panthers just before tipoff. Interesting.
