Quote from BSUaddict on December 3, 2022, 9:34 pmWas really impressed by our guys play tonight against a very good squad. Little ol Max Rice continues to impress me with how much he has developed into a very good all around offensive player. He is no longer just a catch and shoot guy. He led the way with 25 and Shaver not too far behind with 20 himself. Shaver is so much fun to watch when he gets aggressive. He doesnt get intimidated when he drives it down the lane. What's even more impressive by our team was that we didnt force a lot of turnovers and still thoroughly outplayed the Aggies all game. Was not our typical strong defensive game but the offense tonight really stepped up. Helps when you are aided by 36 FT attempts (made 29 btw, no big deal). This team has a ton of potential but I still have my worries about our bench. We are getting solid minutes from guys but someone eventually has to step up and start producing. Cant expect our starting 5 to be all averaging double digit scoring every game.

Quote from BroncoChief on December 4, 2022, 9:33 amThe bench does need to step up, but who will it be? Thus far no one has stepped forward. It’s pretty certain that we know about Lucas Milner, 7 minutes a game with 2 points and a rebound or two. Certainly not enough. Sadda NgaNga is still raw, I am still waiting for something consistently positive from him. Sylla takes up space when in and that’s ok, that’s what he is here for. Pavle and Young were ok when in the games but not major contributors. The closest to a difference maker off the bench is Jace Whiting. He is a scrappy guard who does give the guard position some valuable minutes, but he too is still developing. Unfortunately RJ Keene is not coming back this year. What ever happened to Burke Smith? He is 6’11” and a 3 star out of HS. Apparently not as good as advertised. Maybe some combination of these players can get some serious minutes against NAIA Eastern Oregon on Tuesday. Might be what’s needed to get additional players going. Go Broncos!
