He was just putting everyone in so it’d be a lot to name. um…

Starting was: Darius,Manny,Novak,Sims and LLP
then he had Gibson in there with 2 big men
He took darius / LLP out and changed it up with Stu
Cronin in for Sims / McLimans in for Sims

Just some I remembered.

Thanks for everyone for recapping the game. Glad that I didn’t bite on the streaming, watched a few games last year when it was free but the quality was not respectable. They should put it on TV, even as a PPV option.

Can someone at the game let us know different line-ups Beilein tried.

i thought gibson made some real solid hustle plays and impressed me a bit, darius is going to be the starting point thats a done deal he looked good, novak was solid……..those 3 stood out to me, besides the obvious, gibson though especially made several nice screens, finished nicely around the rim, hustled a lot it appeared

Good showing. Manny got it going after a slow start. Deshawn Got in foul trouble early. D Mo Handled the ball good with good defense. Good to see Ben get some playing time grabbed a few rebounds and had some blocks. Good to see pretty much everyone that dressed got some playing time. Eso, Blake, Josh, Cory and Eric all on the floor. I guess that was Jordan in regular clothes. Good to see the season ticket holders that sit next to me there.

Overall I thought it was a solid performance. Manny looked great played a lot of minutes tonight no indication that his hamstring was holding him back he played quite a bit.

Darius looked good I thought definitely showed a lot of talent at the position, although he only put up 4 points I think it was he definitely looked good, distributed, etc, etc. Cronin came in with some blocks but just watching him play I dont know he’s so tall and he’s physical I guess you could say but just doesn’t LOOK athletic, his height definitely helps him but i’d be curious in his 40 time.

I actually really liked the lineup we had tonight I was surprised LLP started over Stu but still looked good. LLP didn’t put up to many points just another thing with him getting in his groove.

Overall I thought it looked great it was GREAT to see the student section out in full force. I enjoy seeing all the playmakers we have now especially a good amount of guys coming off the bench, (ie, stu or llp, blake, matt, gibson)

Jordan Morgan didn’t start tonight guess he’s still recovering from the surgery.

oh and i was wrong about manny he looked fine and played 29 mins out there so the hamstring must be feeling good.

73-54 was the final.. Manny lead the way with 25, Zack was a beast behind the three point line 5-8 for 15. D-Mo looks good out there with the basketball still needs to find his outside shot but looked good from close range. D. Sims had 9 points and went 3-9 from the field so not the best performance from him.. Overall i think it was a solid performance for the 1st game.. Definitly needs some tune ups on offense and defense but to be expected in the 1st game.

Anyone know the score? How’s D-Mo playing? Who’s looking good? Bad? Any update would be great. Thanks

Yeah, the stream is down for me too, also just an fyi but I checked my online banking after I made the purchase and besides the 2.99 I was charged a 1.o1 for something else from the bigtennetwork as well so it’s really like 4 $ Not sure if I will be using this again unless there is major imrovements
