Friday Hoops

[Full court press]

7-5 yesterday for +3 & change units

Wright St +2'

Athletic dept is playing this one up as their most important home game of the year and it is. The students are back and they are doing a white out, giving away 5000 free T shirts and the whole 9 yards to provide a lively atmosphere. Oh, and the Raiders have a very experienced squad that does very well in protecting their floor against Horizon League foes.

Green Bay is tough but they may be up against it tonight. I wouldn't be surprised to see this one at close to a pick 'em by tip.


Gimme some Orville and Wilbur +2' (5)

Like the total here as well. The last thing Wright wants to do is allow GB to get up and down the floor. Coach Donlon has seamlessly continued the style of play left behind by his mentor, Brownell. In fact many of these kids are Brownell's recruits so they have bought into this system for years now. Not many teams consistently and comfortably get late into the shot clock like the raiders.

One of those spots where I may win or lose both plays, but I feel that if one likes the Raiders that one also must favor their tempo and style of play.

GB / Wright under 130' (2)

I agree. Like your plays as well. A wise man once told me the #1 rule of betting and said not to ever forget it. Never lay points with a bad team and we have that scenario tonight n the MVC:

One unit ea

FH: SIU +2
FH SIU/Bradley under 58'
SIU / Bradley under 129

Wright can't seem to put a body on Brown. If they fall behind further they will be forced to speed up their offensive tempo and foul as well.

2H over 71' (5)
