I’ll ask in this forum since another one declined to take it…. Any idea if there will be a livestream or any other way to catch our boys in Greece?!

When do they play in Greece? I haven’t paid attention the last couple 3 or 4 weeks as much. Who are they playing? Greece pro teams?

I think next week. A mix of pro teams and the U 20National team from what I read

Hopefully we find out a box score. If we get that it will be a miracle. :roll:

Great questions though. Thanks for showing interest!

The new guys get a chance to play some games with our returning players. It doesn't even seem fair to give our guys a head start like that.

I don't think the Cowboys will be visiting any "bleep" bathhouses so they'll probably be all right.

Cowboys looked good, took the foot off the pedal some. Max is a stud! Foster in street clothes, didn’t see any of the other newbies play, Anderson, Powell, Kyman or Barnhart. Looks like Maldo going to be running the point again this year. My preferred starting five would be… Maldo, Dusell, Max, Oden and Ike. Damn that would be 🔥

Who is wearing #2 for us? I don’t see a #2 listed on our roster

That’s Max Agkogpolo. He’s got a real high motor for sure

Here is the summary:

It looks like the only two guys that look to put on muscle and strength so far this offseason are Dusell and Ike.

Hunter was a turnover machine. If we were playing Indiana again 10+ to's in this game. Maybe he had 10 in this game!

Do we ever need a PG. No idea where Ethan Anderson is on a life changing trip to Greece. Is he there? I haven't followed social media much so am out of the loop. :( Please tell me he hasn't left town. Out PG situation is bad. We desperately need Ethan. I hoped to see Oden put on 5-10 pounds of muscle. Nope. Agbonkpolo needs strength. How can Ike and X look so much better physically yet everyone else looks like they went fishing all summer?

Old Bull this doesn't look good.

Please tell me I am panicking. :)

Don't worry Cowgal. Its obvious you have never taken a car load of teenagers on a ten day vacation. If you expect perfection, you will be very disappointed.

Who was wearing #2?

Played well at times, but it was sloppy. Probably has something to do with playing half a world away. Ike looked really good. I think he'll have a big, big year.

I don't share your pessimistic outlook, but we really do need that pg. I'm not getting warm fuzzies about Ethan Anderson not being there.

The first thing that jumped out to me was our depth. We we're missing Ethan Anderson, Kyman, Powell, Foster, and Barnhart and still had an 8 man rotation. Seats 11-13 on our bench actually have the ability to push the guys ahead of them and try to break into the rotation.

I wouldn't worry too much about Ethan Anderson. He could be Covid positive and had to go home. He might have violated a team rule. It could be anything. If he was off the team, we would already know about it.

Keep these games in perspective. They aren't even pre-season games. They're bonus international games that allow us to play games in the summer. These are just a chance for the coaches to get a look at our new roster. They mean absolutely nothing. The trip itself is the real bonus because it allows our new guys to fit in with the guys we already have here. This is more about bonding then it is about basketball. Having said that, I'm hoping we'll see Barnhart, Kyman, Powell, and Kenny Foster get some minutes.

I thought we looked really long at times and that's without Powell, Barnhart, and Kyman. We had Ike on the floor with Oden, and Akbonkpolo. That's a luxury to have a guy that can guard the 2 or the 3 that's 6'8". I thought Max looked great on defense and makes up for the loss of Jeffries on the boards. Max had about 5 offensive rebounds, so he could be a weapon at tracking down extra possessions. I think we're going to hammer teams that are small this season. We've got a lot of long, strong dudes on our roster.

I like the hustle I saw by Wenzel on defense. He still gets caught in the wrong position sometimes, but his help defense looked great: cleaning up messes at the rack. His growth has been impressive. If he can continue improving his defense by November, he's going to be damn hard to keep off the floor.

I have a feeling that Hunter Thompson might shut up some haters this year. We have the roster to finally allow Hunter to play his best roll with this team.

It's not going to look much different without Ethan at the point. Reynolds will still play limited minutes there but Maldonado is too good at passing/backing guys down to see that come to an end. He's still going to get a lot of minutes at the point. Our questions will remain unanswered until we see Ethan on the rock. Will Hunter go to SF with Ethan at the point? How much will we see Hunter at the point this year? Will Reynolds be more of a point or a 2, because his ability to knock down shots guarantees he'll see the floor?

I really want to see Kyman, Anderson, and Powell. Hopefully they get to play during the next few games.

I'm pretty sure there's no stream for this one, but Linder is posting some highlights on Twitter....
