Massey gives KWC a ten point win today at Davis & Elkins. Our defense on paper is not real impressive.

It's not real impressive on the court either.

It's easy to say but their defense will get them beat in NCAA tournament, especially 3 point defense. If I were Happy I would bring an assistant in that is strong in this area. Right now I would project them as a 4 seed, if they win out

I'm sorry all I can hear when you post something is:

"Wah wah wah we're 21-2 and one of the best teams in the country yet we still whine and complain about everything we can think of"

I think 4th seed is correct. Play Parkside first game in Louisville. I do worry that we trade twos for threes too much.

Re: 2016-2017 Kentucky Wesleyan basketball thread.

Always a danger when you overplay passing lanes. If you don't get the turnover you can leave an open shot opportunity. I think if we are matched up in the tourney with a disciplined team that can handle that kind of pressure we need to go more to our trapping zone than the man to man.

Watching 1st half of game, Panthers could be way ahead if they could play 3 point defense!!

Re: 2016-2017 Kentucky Wesleyan basketball thread.

The coaching staff trend this season seems to focus on forcing turnovers and scoring. I'm no expert on defense. Anyhow, the Panthers can put up points. The Wesleyan team just won the regular conference championship, and will host the G-MAC tournament for the second year in a row. The season has already been a success. I really hope the fans come out for this year's G-MAC tournament at the Sportscenter.

Re: 2016-2017 Kentucky Wesleyan basketball thread.

Going out on a limb to say Ken-Jah Bosley will be named G-MAC player of the week this week.

In games against AB and D&E he averaged 30.5 pts, 6 reb, 1.5 a, 2 stl

That's quite the line.

Also, I just want to say that Rick Bellevue from D&E is an absolute BEAST. Definitely 1st team all-conference, IMO. I've not seen a rebounder like him since Jeff Fahnbuelleh played for KWC.

Re: 2016-2017 Kentucky Wesleyan basketball thread.

Some GLVC and GLIAC teams have must win games and then a tough tourney coming. Will these games make them better or having games (like KWC) that should be wins and able to rest and heal some better going into the regional? I know there are pluses and minuses but would like to know what others think.

I think if the coaches and players are on top of their games this could be a real plus for Wesleyan.

Re: 2016-2017 Kentucky Wesleyan basketball thread.

He is a beast. But watching it live, our rebounding left a lot to be desired as well. We seemed to be completely focused on getting up the court and getting more points and not on keeping Bellevue and Davis off the offensive glass.

My vote for POW is Bria Wright Two wins two double doubles
