Nebraska (0-0) vs Stella Azzurra Basketball Academy (Unknown) Game Thread

[hskr4life]

When the "next five" arguably played better than the "first five" you know you have depth.  Wish Banton could have played this year.

[Norm Peterson]

I’m sorry but that is NOT a walk.

Jace draining 3s just like daddy used to.  Well sort of, minus the backboard.

Good news is that we probably played well enough that we won't have a "Fire Fred Hoiberg" thread started after the game today.

3 Nebraskans currently on the court (Pike, Easley, Porter). Likely would have been 4 if Arop had made the trip.

Walker didn't play today, don't know why.

[Norm Peterson]

 If it’s not who starts but who finishes, then it looks like a bunch of freshmen walk on‘s are the most trusted players on the team.

[dskurz]

Any way we can petition to get Banton immediately eligible?

Easley is surpricing so far.  Could see some minutes this year

Washut said Walker has been hurt. 

[Norm Peterson]

Walker not suited up?  Did he forget his uniform back home?

Looks like he was in street clothes with sunglasses at the end of the game.  Maybe a bit of an injury?

[Dean Smith]

Why didn’t Arop go?

Didn't have necessary paperwork filled out.  Passport maybe?

Easley is the best freshman walkon I've ever seen here.  

 

I said when he committed, maybe not on here but somewhere, he is a better basketball player than Thor. 

[GoBigRed]

no idea how good that competition was, but i liked what i saw. lots of transition basketball, easy layups, wide open 3s. A couple players I would like to see not taking 3 pointers as much, and interior defense will be a big issue without Yvan. Hope Stevenson gets eligible right away, we need him for many reasons.

If one becomes available, can someone please remember link a box score for the game.

[hskr4life]

For some reason, we have trouble shooting multi-colored balls.  That should be an issue that is fixed once the season gets underway.

Hoiberg era officially starts off with losing the tip.  We're underway in Italy.

 

It's a long standing Doc Sadler tradition!

[PimpMario]

30 point win!

[hskr4life]

The real question now is... does the committee take this win into account come March?

There will definitely be a write up in the papers!

[49r]

Had trouble with the live stream as others reported and disabling my ad-blocker definitely did the trick for me.

[hskr4life]

Is it just me, or does anyone else see KCross as more of a forward.  Man that shot is smooth and he has some moves.

Whose watching the rest of the Stella Azzura games to ensure they stay out of quad 4? They’re in Miss Valley St. conference right?

Not looking for reading material but moreso stats. Dont believe any of the papers will provide a box score (maybe im wrong!)

 

Shamus linked box scores via his Twitter account during our last foreign trip.
