Noooo saw this 30 mins to late
That was an extraordinarily beautiful first offensive possession

Zone!
Great aggressiveness by Mirk.
Love what I'm seeing early.
Our defense has been very good early
Lineup change and Jake has been a bit behind the play. ISU on a run here
What a defensive possession by Z.
It’s weird seeing us in a matchup zone.
Why is Humrichous forcing shots? Know your role, man
Props to Ben who is noticeably stronger. Fletch is the man
Big Z playing very well. He's not the fastest laterally but he takes up a ton of space with his stride making the shot that much more challenged. Very good debut thus far
Great defensive play by Lee
Zvonomir's been the best player.
Big Z has forced 5 turnovers and bad shots so far in the first 8 minutes. He is really having himself a game going along with 2 buried threes on offense
With half the roster not playeling, nobody can really know their roll. You can't even call this a dress rehearsal.

These plus announcers, are they from Bloomington?
Good aggressive take by Ben there. If he does that this year and brings back his interior game, he'll have a role for sure
Impressed with that crossover

Goodness, Mirk has some handles.
There are 3 games on BTN+, so you will need 2 months subscription to watch all 3. I decided to wait for the Colgate game to subscribe to get the 2 real games in a one month subscription.

Mirkovic is big and long
Seems like Mirkovic is going to be a problem
