I like the pace, but perimeter D needs to stiffen

lets get emery going

by Howi on Mar 18, 2010 9:45 AM PDT reply actions

he seems to thrive defensively first...

if he can get a couple steals/blocks, I think that’ll get him going offensively

horrible D by JT...need some quick stops.

If we go down by double-digits it will be hard to fight back

good half

im surprised at the amount of threes taken is so low, but it is definitely efficient. id like to see emery get some shots going, make up for those blown transition opportunities he had.

jimmer and jt look good. but without loyd this would be ugly! he has single handedly made BYU powerful in transition.

Loyd has been BYU’s MVP over the last six games. He’s crucial if BYU is going to win today and then beat K State.
Even though UF’s 3s have tapered off, BYU’s perimeter has to sharpen. It was really scary there for a few minutes. And, yes, Jimmer’s going to have to reel off a nice streak early and take the Gators’ will to play

this is bad

but i really do like seeing loyd and the other guys score. of course i want jimmer to be sweet, but if he goes off for 40, he just might be sealing his own fate and leaving to the nba. so lets have jimmer get his 20 and id love to see his assists up to 8 today! less sexy and less publicity so doesnt sneak into first round draft projections!
