I watched the first half. Lilley jumped center for PSU and won the toss. The Pirates weren't good at all. PSU kept rotating players in and out and it looked like a YMCA pickup game with better athletes. The article says lots of assists but there were also a lot of unforced turnovers.Yarrr, I'll bet the center for the Pirates had a great hook shot from the post.

Was their Captain named Morgan?
I don't think 3 point shooting will be our offense this year. With the fact that he can put the size out on the court that few teams will be able to match, I think we will see a lot of taking players off the dribble, and then rebounding missed shots. I think it will be a much quicker offense than we have had the past couple of years, and a lot of scoring at the rim.I watched the first half. Lilley jumped center for PSU and won the toss.

I assume the team will look more organized and disciplined after fall practice. IIRC 3 pt shooting was 3-21 in the first half but PSU guards were able to take their men off the dribble and get to the basket with ease. No doubt they're quick.
Absolutely, we will see post ups and dribble drive/handoff for switches to get to the hoop. Three point attempts and percentage will be lowerI don't think 3 point shooting will be our offense this year.

Sounds like a possibility, but shouldn't a university as large as PSU be able to work some angles to add them? Or perhaps they had to attend class(es)?They are both foreign nationals so it is probably a visa issue or something like that.

You are correct. Iceland citizens do not require a visa while Nigerians do require a visa to visit the Bahamas.Visa requirements are different for different countries. It might simply be that a citizen from Iceland has a less stringent requirement than one from Nigeria in terms of Bahamas immigration law.
And someone here under a student visa may not be allowed to travel to another country. Or take substantial lead time to get permission .You are correct. Iceland citizens do not require a visa while Nigerians do require a visa to visit the Bahamas.

I've heard their Captain, a guy named Phillips, is very calm under pressureThat’s great. Any scouting report for the Somali pirates yet?
He's not the captain now.I've heard their Captain, a guy named Phillips, is very calm under pressure
