    Bonnies

    Our record in the league so far has been predictable. We lost the games we should have and won the game we should have. Saturday against the Bonnies will show a lot as to who we are. This is an important game to win.

    Absolutely! The Bonnies are one of the better teams in the league. This is the type of game we need to win at home if we really want to end up with a nice season. We have 7 home games left, only one of which appears unwinnable (GW). We have 2 road games where we will have a solid chance to win (GMU, SLU). That is 8 games where we will either be favored, or be slight underdogs. We need to win 6 of these 8 games. That would leave us at 17-14, going into Brooklyn. If we could win 7 of those, plus steal one of the harder games, that would leave us at 19-12, with a chance to earn a rare 20 win season.

    +1.  This is much better phrased than I'd have done it but echoes my sentiments exactly.

    If GW can lose at SLU maybe they can lose here. Shades of last year.

    GW is a different team away from their tiny gym.  The Dukes crushed them last year at Palumbo and can do it again.  As mentioned above GW lost to St Louis on the road.  No reason to fear them at AJ.

    We're giving them a game so far. Need a quick start after the half. Giving up a wide open 3 to end the half hurts.

    Re: Bonnies

    Played well. As the season progressed it started to look like colter was trying to do too much. I think the first half was the same, with a number of bad turnovers and shots that were too quick into the clock. In the second half he took more opportunities within the flow of the offense and the result was seen. Hopefully the solid interior d and sharing of the ball continues. That is when this team looks dangerous
