Center Court: Ben Ball (Cal State Fullerton) Open Thread
Cal. St.-Fullerton Titans at UCLA Bruins, Nov 16, 2009 8:59 PM PST
Well here we go. The opening night is officiall here.
In about an hour, JA, ML, RN and rest of the Ben Ball warriors officially lift off tonight to tip off the 2009-10 Ben Ball season. Bruins are taking on Cal State Fullerton on WWL. Hopefully we will also see JA breaking down the Titan defense by attacking the rim. For some quick notes on today's game here is our morning game day roundup.
The tipp off is scheduled for 9:00 pm PST. You can track the game online via the official site. For those who are watching the game tonight (or staying up LATE) make sure to let us know how our defense looks after another week of practice.
As always if you are watching the game share your instant thoughts/commentary here in our game thread. Fire away.
GO BRUINS.

Believe so
I suppose that AT&T’s 3G network is getting so taxed in some areas, that allowing streaming via 3G data would really screw up the network.

so excited to get this here in Dallas
Just got back form the SMU game a bit ago actually, and they played A&M fairly close, we were excited for a while.
Its funny because the last time I saw A&M was down in Anaheim, they certainly arent as good as they were that year though. Hopefully we have a better result than the mustangs did tonight, and that this game isnt as close as the one in Anaheim was.
go Bruins : )

Anderson needs to take those shots
He’s wide open and he keeps hesitating. Result = TO.

I know we should be patient...
but we’re looking pretty damn bad out there. Seriously, we’re playing CSUF. It’s not supposed to be this bad! 3rd in the Pac-10, may be a stretch at this rate.

It takes time
Did you see UK playing Miami (OH) earlier tonight. I think they were down by 16.

It's frustrating but
Look at the effort (other than ND)- and they just installed double-teams this week. It’s raw but the effort and buy-in is there – we’ll be ok by the pac-10 opener.

Fullerton goes to the dreaded zone last two possessions
Look for ND to reenter probably

actually, it would have been helpful if he would have declared earlier
so we could have replaced him, but it was his right, it just wasn’t helpful to the program.

Wish he
had stayed. He’s not playing much in Philly. I guess Mil made the right pick with Jennings at #10 instead of JH.

because we do not have players with good post moves
or that can create their own shot easily

ML needs to take control
He’s shown his ability but needs to take more leadership.
by bruin_nerd on Nov 16, 2009 9:52 PM PST reply actions 0 recs
well if we don't play better we deserve to lose
the airballs, bad free throw shooting, unforced turnovers, poor defense, are all inexcusable.

Ray McCallum
should give his verbal first thing tomorrow morning, if he’s watching this game.

If he's watching the game, he might not want to. (joke)
Then again he’ll be enticed of being a starter from the get go.

We are going to need some incredible patience this year
by trainwreck84 on Nov 16, 2009 9:54 PM PST reply actions 0 recs
Agree
JA makes me extremely nervous. Forget the 0-4 from the field. He is not the extension of the HC that we’ve been used to recently. I guess we’ve been spoiled. Either way, if he doesn’t get his act together and leads this team, we are going to lose this game.
ML is playing hard but he needs to take the ball to the rim and get fouled or create for his teammates. Team needs to hit their FT’s too. Keefe and Roll are playing like the SR’s that they are. Drago is blah right now. CBH benched him for the 1st half. Reeves brings some nice energy.
