***Official Game Thread*** Florida vs Mercer

[LeeForThree]

Wow...its all offensive rebounding and defense leading us this game

 

[LeeForThree]

Florida up 45-22 at the under 16 timeout. We are moving quicker but still a little shaky on jump shots. We are going crazy rebounding though leading to a ton of 2nd chance pts.

We're just too big for these guys. we seem to be rotating really good defensively but I don't really know how go mercer is

 

[LeeForThree]

Mercer changed d this half and we have looked awful trying to score against their half court man-to-man defense. I hope the shooting gets better when we are in our own stadium!

 

[LeeForThree]

Under 12 timeout Florida up 49-28

Chiozza is not good

 

[LeeForThree]

We got a ball game. 15 pt game. Chiozza has looked terrible in this game and Hill in foul trouble. We are just walking around nowm

Allen should be back up PG and Chiozza should be relegated to mop up duty

Allen isn't that great running the offense though. Chiozza just needs to focus on passing the ball and not creating his own shot

 

[LeeForThree]

Under 8 timeout Florida up 57-39. Egbunu going to the line. We really haven't had any inside game at all tonight. Hopefully they figure that out going forward.

 

[LeeForThree]

We are just to long defensively for Mercer. Leading to a few fastbreak points.

 

[LeeForThree]

Under 4 timeout Florida is up 70-50. Leon has been hot from 3 this half. Also, Drob and Allen have had a bunch go in and out. Good signs going forward. Hill is 0-4 from 3 though lol.

I really think we are going to make some serious noise this year. We have the depth and length to cause every team we play issues.

And can't say enough about our FT shooting; so far it looks like the work they've put in during the offseason is really paying off. Now if we can just get the 3 ball to drop a little more we will really be dangerous.

As always, Go Gators!

I may have been a little harsh re: Chiozza. He is just aggravating to watch when he tries to go street ball on us. I still think Allen can run the offense but a Chiozza that plays under control is a better option.

Tough to tell how good we are against a team like mercer. Looks like were still gonna have a hard time scoring the ball.

Looked like an intramural game of 1st string vs 2nd.

 

[Gator Fever]

I hope we get better play at PG this year.

I tuned into the game a couple times, crowd looked like a women's game.

Jacksonville must not be a basketball hotbed. Looked like 300 max.

Talent galore....can they meld into a team?

Looks like a Jags game.
