Wouldn’t be surprised if some of these kids have the flu, tbh. It’s going around

For the favorite. If the line is -4, then the favorite has to win by 5 or more.

Pretty big foul discrepancy. That, and 3 pt. shot pct. look to be key. Almost double the fouls though? Hmmm…

Good season for LP under the new coach, and a hard fought game against a well regarded BU squad.

I would say about 5 of those fouls were very late in game with the intent to stop clock and put United on the line.

Was it as good a game as you hoped? I don’t keep up with basketball as much. But, I understand folks are happy with this new coach from Willis. He looks to have turned them around pretty quick. Then, he got assaulted by one of his own kids because of playing time. Don’t know if that had anything to do with his coming to LP or not.

Very good.

To me the turning point in the game was the 2nd Q. LP, particularly #2, was gassed. Lot's of energy spent in that first quarter and he was spent by half time. 2nd half LP looked tired. It showed from a shooting a defending stand point. BU's relentless pressure took a toll. Combine that with LP applying full court pressure and it seemed to wear down LP more than it did BU.

#2 gutted it out but late in the game he just didn't have enough. He led the team in scoring with 26 (scored LP's first 12 points). United then started denying him the ball as much as they could. That wore him down.

LP needed more production from their post player. He had a pretty bad game. Also #11 started out in foul trouble and never really got into the flow of the game. Forced up some shots.

I honestly think these two teams play 10 games, they split 5-5

So a thing of note.  Seems like the BU big man missed a few ‘bunnies’.  You gotta make the easy ones.  But he’s still young and learning.  
 

Also, most of those turnovers that BU had were unforced.  Inexcusable.
