MBB at Tulsa Game Thread

[PonyPride]

Davis lay-in ties it 20-20

[Charleston Pony]

Tulsa doing a good job moving the ball and getting good shots; our guys came out hot early and then got into a run of jacking up threes early and got sloppy. Only 3 assists vs 8 turnovers

[PonyPride]

Davis scores again in the lane while absorbing a hit
Has 9
SMU 22-20

[ponyboy]

Tulsa sporting the 1983 Grambling look.

[Charleston Pony]

Ponies with 8 offensive boards on 16 missed shots; our 7 rebound advantage has been the early key

[PonyPride]

In his last three games, Davis made 9 field goals and had a high of 11 points.

He already has 11 points tonight, on 4-of-6 shooting.

Jasey put-back extends SMU scoring run to 10-0

SMU 28, Tulsa 20

[PonyPride]

SMU has as many offensive rebounds (10) as Tulsa has total rebounds.

Ponies lead, 22-10, on the glass, 28-20 on the scoreboard

[PonyPride]

Tulsa has 7 fouls to SMU's 6, but Embery-Simpson, Joiner and Jackson have 2 each

Hunt is the only Mustang with 2

[PonyPride]

Rachal hits 1 of 2 FTs to end 11-0 SMU run

SMU 29, Tulsa 21

[Arkpony]

But for our sloppy play, missed 3s and TOS, we would have led by 14 at half.

[PonyPride]

HALFTIME

SMU 29, Tulsa 23

[Charleston Pony]

Good thing we are rebounding because that was an incredibly sloppy 1st half. Only 3 assists on 11 made FGs and 12 turnovers. Not much patience shown on offense but playing pretty good D holding Tulsa to 35% shooting and forcing 11 turnovers

[Charleston Pony]

Oh...and Bandoumel MIA once again

I liked seeing Smith IV getting more early minutes. Got a little impatient offensively after making his 1st three and jacked up a couple of quick threes and then turned it over a couple of times but did contribute 4 rebounds. He and Jolly have looked reckless at times but they bring good hustle. Should add Feron to the list of guys always hustling and scrapping out there.
