Alabama vs Iona in Basketball @ 3 pm. Saturday

[Marshal Dillon]

Tide 2/13 3 pointers 14/37 FG.



 

[Marshal Dillon]

Petty 3/8 FT. His shooting confidence is gone. Petty gets 3rd foul. We are not rebounding like we did earlier. Juwan Gary scores on blocked shot. Reese hits a 3. 45-42 Tide.



 

[Marshal Dillon]

Interesting, Petty sits and Tide starts playing better with 2 lay-ups by Quinerly & 2 3’s by Reese, and dunk by Jones, 54-46 Tide.

Tide wins 68-55.

Great win despite very sloppy play. I don' know what's going on with Petty but his confidence is shot. JQ stepped up in the last few minutes and we finally started getting steals that put it away. Congrats on a hard fought win. Iona played very well and blocked a bunch of shots. That's what you would expect from a Pitino coached team.

Having said that, we will have to play a lot better to beat the winner of Maryland-UConn.

I picked Maryland to play us in the 2nd round. Something is bad wrong with Petty. I have no answer for it, he has to deal with it. Juwan Gary injected energy and good play around the basket when he came in. Petty may need to not start the next game, he is hurting the team with his erratic playing.

2 and MD have pretty well summed it up.  Iona is a well coached team and they play hard.  Games get harder & harder from here on.  Bama's gotta kick it up a notch or they will be headed back to T-town.  I hope Petty can come out of it.  We need him on his game.

Maybe Petty is injured some way and we don't know. If he is still he should sit and not hurt the team. RTR!

[Marshal Dillon]

We will be playing Maryland on Sunday after they beat UCONN. Maryland is now 17-13 with a NET of 35.

Ugly win but this tournament is about surviving and advancing. Solid defense won this game. This game would not have been close if we hit our free throws.

I am not as down on Petty as everyone else. He is not shooting the ball as well as we know he can but he is a leader and helps the team in many ways. His stat line is not bad. 10 points, 7 rebounds, 2 blocks, 1 steal and 1 assist. He played 31 minutes with only H Jones playing more. He had 4 turnovers and shot a low percentage but he should not be benched, if anything reduce his minutes some.

He still played good D. We need him for that if for no other reason. Maybe something will click on the shootaround and he will find his form.

Petty plays hard and has turned into a good defender. He has been either hot or cold offensively his whole career. Shackelford needs to start hitting his three's as well.

Love his energy on defense.

Didn't Petty getted bumped/bruised v. MissSt, or maybe ut?

Well I have to say I am just happy to see our team as far along as we are in the tourney. It has been a long time. Who coaches Maryland? I have forgotten. RTR!
