29-27 Fordham at half. We're either sitting outside trying to shoot over the zone, or when we do try to go inside, we make some careless passes. Only one foul on Tulane in the first half, though.

Sloppy first half. Reynolds needs to get going. Only down by 2 even though we kind of stunk it up there.

Unfortunately offense in the first half way to reminiscent of last year's. Pass around the perimeter and chuck it up. Defensively not a bad half...getting burned more on sagging outside shooters instead of giving up bunnies in the lane. Need to see some halftime adjustments by MD.

By far, the poorest play we've seen for the entire year yet we lead by 8

Fordham is playing hard on D, and then doing little on offense. It's hard to maintain that late in a game.

7pts at the under 8. Against a terrible Fordham team. Turned the ball over 17 times already.

Looks like 2 teams that spent the last 48 hours in Jamaica

Fordham plays like a Conroy team - it doesn't matter how well you defend if your offense has ZERO imagination.

We did not play well, but we hit our free throws.

Not at our best but we win anyway. Not often we get to say that no matter the opponent. Made halftime adjustments and started getting it going inside. Then got cold and sloppy. We then got going again late when they tried to make a run at us. These last two games we have played some D and did some rebounding. 4-0.

BTW, Fordham is known for constantly changing their defense to try and throw the opponents rhythm off. Good to play teams like that to help you out later.

Tavares from Fordham made the damndest play ever. Dribbling, slips, falls, recovers, keeps possession as if it were a planned play and then makes an underhanded two in traffic. Without him, Fordham would be (even more) awful.

I believe we easily lose that game in the last couple years. Let's take the W and go home. Miami on Wed night.

I think it's closer to 96 hours for Tulane and I was thinking we had too much Bob Marley and needed Nico instead. Regardless to have a good season, you need to have bad wins against bad teams. I assume MD will put them through some hard practices before Miami of Ohio game Wednesday.

Anyway it's been a great weekend to be a Wave fan. Even VB team came through today.

Not quite. More like an over 50 YMCA team.
