Looks like attendance will dip now that Sioux Falls is done playing tonight.
Big keys tonight. Adler hasn't shot very well lately, and if he's not scoring, he'll need to defend Zager. SW's Olson hasn't been much of a factor in the first 2 games vs. MSU. He'll need to limit Marei for SW to win.
Southwest will try to penetrate against MSU, pick up some fouls. MSU has some shot-blockers who might be effective off the ball.
MSU 5-9 shooting this half, Southwest 3-11
Monaghan will probably say pass, but airball 3 goes right to Wooten for putback.
Didn't think I'd see MSU get shot-clock violation tonight
Adler 3, assist Monaghan. Monaghan has 8 assists, I think.
Great catch, great shot. Adler 3 makes it 50-44, 10:45.
Adler has four 3s this half.
Always trying to stretch the mind.
He has, just missed, which could have been big.
Adler missed another 3 but defense gets turnover.
Why would Southwest switch off Adler? Hits another 3, MSU up 53-51
Marei with basket, misses FT. O'Brien rebounds and is fouled.
Excuse me, 4 3s this half, 5 for the game
Big possession, MSU with ball and 4-point lead.
Wooten spectacular dunk off inbounds pass from Monaghan, 59-53 lead with 4:53 to go.
MSU getting some stops. Is depth becoming issue?
Wooten 3, getting away from Southwest, 3:30 to play.
I thnk MSU is 5-11 on 3-pointers this half
Expect Marei to get fouled a lot form here on out
O'Brien with big offensive rebound
MSU pulling away, going to be tough for Mustangs, down 10, 1:39 to play.
If the Mavericks hold on and I can find a room this late.
In case I get busy, if MSU wins, we'll do the live chat again tomorrow night.
I'll find somewhere to sleep. I always do.
