Gtown called for 61 fouls overcome 26 turnovers in 84-80 win over VCU

If you can handle VCU's full court havoc pressure you should able to handle anyone's pressure in the land of college hoops. The Hoyas turned the ball too many times in the first half (14).but the score at half was only a one point lead for the the Rams despite the turnover madness from the Hoyas. This win was a great team win. Overcoming 26 turnovers is not an easy task, but the Hoyas kept rolling through thick and thin.

Halftime Stats

The Payback!

Sophomore D'Vauntes Smith-Rivera showed his heart and toughness tallying 26 pts., 3 rebs. 1 asst. 4 stls., 5 to's today against one of the best defense in the college basketball world. The Hoyas will probably not face a better defense team for the rest of the season, but the Hoyas will not be fooled knowing there are other great defensive teams out there in the college basketball world as well.

Senior point Markel Starks filling his leadership role was 10-10 from the free throw line. (Free throws win championships). 23 pts., 5 rebs., 5 assists, 2 stls., & 7 to's was his stat line. Markel showed great poised down the stretch and played smart. As we all know playing against and watching VCU play that the game is not over until the clock says 0:00. Under 4 minutues is normally when they're at their best.

The Hoyas overcame havoc and became relentless. I thought this was a big indication and set the tone of what the Hoyas can do. They played Georgetown basketball minus the turnovers. VCU did managed to shoot 47 free throws. The Hoyas are now 3-2. This again, was great team effort without a doubt. The Hoyas 13 bench points were key also. The big fella junior Joshua Smith "Freightrain" tallied 17 pts. and was 9-10 from the free throw line. I love the powerful dunk in the first half. Nice feed from the senior Starks.

Very unselfish team play by the old blue and gray. This is what good TEAMS do. The communication was there. The point communication was there. This game was REDEMPTION for me, and I know Hoyanation as well. It was like a big weight lifted off of my shoulders. Oh, what a feeling. Shout out to the Hoyas fans there in Puerto Rico, great see and hearing our fans battle VCU's, oh what a grudge match it was. I think the Hoyas need to work on keep the ball away from the sides because most teams are taught to trap in those areas. Passing drills wouldn't hurt either lol lots of them ;). Hoyas out rebound VCU 38-29

Good defense!

Hands up!

The big fella and guard defense!

Coaches coached!

Good job coach!

Killer guards

You got one, we got three and some. The Hoyas have three killer guards. Which you do guard? Take your pick because when it's on it's on, you're on your game. Combined total of points scored by these guards in their last Puerto Rico Tip-Off game vs. Kansas State was 52 pts. which I thought was huge. They played the right way smart, tough and quick. This is Georgetown basketball. Killer guards in no order because they can strike at anytime... Hoya Saxa!

Agent #1

Hoya and USA Salute!

Agent #2

Agent #3

I even love the way Mikael "Big Slim" Hopkins attacks the basket.

We got this now Hoyanation, THUMBS UP!

HOYA SAXA!

WE ARE GEORGETOWN!

LET'S GO HOYAS!

Post game thoughts Hoyas 90-63 win vs. Kansas State U

Senior leader Markel Starks nice and low the ground where he most dangerous

Back In Stride Again

The decision's were easy, get the ball down low, attack. The guard play was outstanding today they combined for 52 of 90 points today. Hoyas win in Puerto Rico 90-63. Senior Markel Starks 11 pts. 8 assts. 2 turnovers. Sophomore D'Vauntes Smith-Rivera 6-9 fg's 4-5 3's 25 pts. 9-9 free throws.

Junior Jabril Trawick was 6-7 fg's 4-6 free throws added 16 pts., 3 stls.,
3 rebs.

Super guards didthey're thing today. They did a terrific job of feeding the post at will this should be done consistently on a game by game basis.

Hoyas shot 33-54 61.1% fg's, 6-13 3's 42%, 18-22 81.8% free throws. Kansas State U outrebounded the Hoyas 34-28. Hoyas 19 assists, KSU 6, so I guess this made up for the Hoyas rebounding lol. Hey, I'll take it. Mikeal Hopkins look dominant off of the bench as well today scoring 8 pts., 6 rebs., 2 blks. 3 assists. Shout out to senior Moses Ayegba 4 pts., 3 blocks way to hold it down for Big Joshua Smith while he was in foul trouble defensively. Nice patient move to the basket as well.

When you have legit big man it's starts right there from point guard to post first look. Today was a great day to watch the Hoyas they were aggressive, patient and played with poise. They never looked back.

They stayed up. They never lost a lead. There were a couple of turnovers under the six minute mark but the Hoyas maintained the composure. Great to see them overcome adversity from one day to the next. The Hoyas never looked back.

The Hoyas also got 20 pts. 6 blocks, 11 rebounds, 8 assists from the bench this is very key. Good job!

Hoyas first half was nice here are the stats from halftime:

My thoughts on loss to Northeastern

All first half was Hoyas but for some reason there was lack of communication/point communication. This is something big a team has to have during the game on offense and defense. Defense wins championships. You can score all day long, but you need stops especially during critical times. Those hands need to be at all times. Arms should be waving. You get energy doing this.

Inside out basketball was being played during the first half the Hoyas shot well, but had 7 turnovers. Click here to see the >>Play By Play. 16:52 of the 2nd half we started shooting too many 3's. The Hoyas seem to drift away into another zone for some odd reason and settle for the 3 ball for most of the second half while Northeastern keep fighting and scoring most of their points inside for the most of the game especially the second half.

Sometimes you just have to go back to the fundamentals, hey, it's life, life through hoops check out the video peeps. Point guard play is point guard play no matter how you put it and no matter what level it's played it's still point guard play.

The Huskies shot about 60% from the foul line as did the Hoyas, but something went wrong. I think from looking at the play by play and stats point guard play was lacking for most of the second in so many ways. Smith-Rivera did seem to find his way in the paint at time but that was it as inside ended.

Leaders have to lead by example. Point guard play is where it starts and ends. If it's not right, it's a tough road to be on, it's as simple as that. Players have to be ready, they have to be in triple threat ready to either pass dribble or shot, it's called triple threat.I like watching the freshman Reggie Cameron triple threat stance on offense, he's very fundamental. Guard should quickly recognize Reggie Cam is always to catch and shoot because of this.

The big man logged only 16 mins. was 2-5 fg's, 9 pts. 6 rebs. both ends of the court, 5-9 from the free throw line, 1 stl. I mean the 2nd half was played the opposite of the first half. Instead of playing inside out, the Hoyas played outside, not inside. I think having peripheral vision really has it advantages in basketball especially for point guards.

When I learned I had peripheral vision playing hoops it made it easier for me to get the ball to my big man and post players rather easy. I loved it! Peripheral vision help me 100 plus %. Stay low people, stay low. Stay ready to strike for 40 minutes, not 20 is all I'm saying. All you need is each other to play angry.

Hoyas bench scored 14 points. Salute! I think once our leader started chucking up 3's this became contagious.

The Hoyas have to play like they want it for 40 minutes, not 20 minutes. When you want something you just blow a 14 lead just like that. When you're up you have to put them away for good. There is no feeling sorry for anyone, if you're gonna beat them play insance, play angry, go and get it. Take it! Sense of urgency is well needed on this journey to the tourney.

The Hoyas have Kansas State today! Let's see if this can get better because right now it's a shock to me, but it's a new day so let's go Hoyas!

GTown PRESS I loved it

FINALLY MOVING HOYAS

I really did! I really did! I saw and I had a flashback in the Hoyas 88-70 win over Wright State. I was hoping and praying that one day the Hoyas of old would come back! People say, "it's the past, it's over with, it's something that happen way back, it's old school." They're right, but who said you couldn't mix the past with the present.

Well, I'm just here to tell I saw an old school "Gtown Press" and guess what? I was AMAZED, and I couldn't believe my eyes at what I was seeing. I was the most surprised and happiness human being on the planet when I saw this press. Just watching the Hoyas get busy right away and take care of business was amazing. They got good buckets off of steals from the press, this something well needed right now. The Hoyas are playing to eventually finish the job and it starts now.

The press got the old blue & gray loose, it got them active and energized. It's great for so many reasons. I call it, "HOYASNATCHERS!" That's the why is should be in my opinion, huh Hoyanation. You already know. Forward marchhhhh. The first half was great for the Hoyas they shot and played well. The player movement looked great. The sense of urgency was in full effect. It doesn't matter who you're playing, what matter's is how your playing. GAME STATS click here

Freshman #5 Reggie Cameron in sniper mode I say quickest gun in the east ey? 9 points first career points all 3's his catch and shoot is vicious "The Hoya Sniper!"

Before the game Markel Starks gave Hoyanation a thumbs up! He added 23 points and six assists for the hosts

Sophomore D'Vauntes Smith-Rivera had a great outing in the phone booth scoring 25 points

LET'S GO HOYAS!

Talking about the PRESS

Let's Press Hoyas! Let's Go!

Sitting back and thinking about the 1980's and how good the Hoyas were. 1984 they were ranked 2nd in the nation, and went on to win the big prize, the national championship. To this day I cannot recall seeing a team so dominant. I mean teams were literally scared to play Georgetown. They gave no room to do anything.

The Hoyas came at you with aggression for most of the game on defense. Their offense came to them from their hard work on defense. It all flowed together. This is what was so amazing about watching the Hoyas in the 80's. They were the enforcers, they won lots of games being this way.

While coaching youth basketball, I patterned my teams after 80's Hoyas playing a 2-1-2 and 1-3-1 press. I loved it, we won games and plus a championship doing these things. I think it's the best way to play and to see if a team will crack under such aggressive pressure throughout the game with the press on.

I remember one game my team was so non-chalant and it seemed like most of my team was still sleeping. The game was sort of early that Saturday morning. I thought of something to wake them UP! PRESSSSSSSSSSSSS PRESSSSSSSSSSSS PRESSSSSSSSSS! Guess hat? They did, they woke up and won by a significant margin.

I think the press has many advantages especially mentally and physically. Mentally the press wakes you up. Physically the press gets the legs loose, gets the players' mind's loose and body as well. The press makes your players better as a team. The blood is flowing as a more rapid pace. The heart beat is faster. They're going at, for it, the ROCK! If you want something you have to go and get it!

The NCAA tournament that's what it's all about, going to get it. Every year when I watched the teams that keep winning they don't stop wanting it, they go and get it, another words, those teams TAKE IT! I'd ask my team during a timeout, "do you want to have some fun? They'll say, "yes coach!" I'd say, "1-3-1" and oh, they love it. We'd beat teams on the average of 15 points a night or more. We were AGGRESSIVE, make no doubt about it! We won, and if we didn't it was a heck of a fight.

Growing up in the city I learned to play aggressive and stay hungry for hoops. It was a way out of the hood, so to speak. From playing to coaching I've always been aggressive because of this. I'm just glad basketball came into my life because it taught me so much about life through hoops/sports. I came from a city where the players loved defense and it was stressed more than anything else. The games were very exciting and there was never a dull moment.

I guess what I'm trying to say here is I'm still feeling the hurt of the Flordia Gulf Coast loss. This loss hurt so bad I still haven't forgtten about it. The Hoyas haven't forgotten. Have I gotten over it, yes and no. No, because I want to use that loss as big time motivation coming into this season, but I know our team would have to be as aggressive as it's ever been. How do they do this?

PRESS! PRESS! PRESS!

I'm always watching 80's highlights. When I'm watching, I'm wishing our squad can go back being very aggressive on both ends of the court especially the defensive end. Check out the Hoyas at the 2:04 mark. It's the Gtown press! Right after a basket was made by the Hoyas they immediately went into press mode. I thought it was unique to put a 7 footer at the point on the press because it's harder to throw the ball over the top of him. Most of the team was long and athletic.

They were the #2 rebounding team in the country in 1984. The Hoyas always had their arms and hands up waving them up and down just to perhaps get a tip or a turnover. This worked especially with defensive specialist Hoyas legend #22 Gene Smith coming off of the bench. Check him out at the 9:22 mark in the video. With Smith in the game the Hoyas defensive intensity went up about 2 clicks. He's a hustler he would get the ball for you without a doubt. The PRESS makes you more aggressive. I think a player on the Hoyas that reminds of Smith is Jabril Trawick, his defense.

PRESS 'EM HOYAS!

My thoughts and tweets on Hoyas 82-75 loss to the Oregon Ducks in the Armed Forces Classic

First off, a military salute to our U.S.Army troops stationed at Camp Humphreys, South Korea. Once again it was a privilege and an honor to see the Hoyas play and represent our armed forces and university win or lose. Salute!

It was gametime, the first Hoyas game of the 2013-14 versus the 19th ranked Oregon Ducks playing in the ESPN Armed Forces Classic. The time had came and went. The Hoyas upended in their first game 82-75 against a very tough, and determined new Ducks team. The Ducks started five transfers. They have 8 transfers all together. Looks like Coach Altman may becoming a pro putting a team of transfers together year after year and win I don't know. Something is going on over there in Oregon. Two of their key players were suspended as well.

For most of the game I was a twitter tweeting my life away during the game. Some of the tweets might need some explanation I have to check them out again myself. Here we gooooo it's gametime! ...

Before I put my tweets up I just saw what someone tweeted, "One benefit of veteran transfers: cool under pressure. Joe Young and Jason Calliste a combined 21-of-21 from the free-throw line." - Rob Mosely (Editior of GoDucks.com)

I talked about Joe Young before the game. He's a gamer. You have to ALWAYS keep a good defender on him and make sure they watch his every move if not you're doomed. He moves all the time he's a prime time player.

GH-Young again they'd better watch him he'll score all #Oregon's points lol

Markel Starks instead of sliding over the close the gap let a player get through and in the paint and score

GH- Starks should taken that charge #Hoyas

Gtown down by 4 early in the 1st half 17:26 to go

Moser draws a charge! 1:37 left to go.. Ducks ahead, 73-68

That's when you stop and pop!! Starks or shoot ur FLOATER!!! #hoyas

I mentioned Joe Young last week and before this game and early during this game

Don't say I didn't mention Young!!!

Big UCLA transfer Josh Smith did some the Hoyas a great service last night Hoyanation

From Jon Rothstein (CBSSports) -

‏

Josh Smith is unguardable. Towers over people in the low post. Looks like the T-Rex next to civillians in Jurassic Park.

Hahaha

#Hoyas just now pressing under a minute to go I've been calling for this since the beginning of the game. After the FGCU loss I'd be wanting to go and get the ball every chance each and every game. This is college basketball is about wanting the ball, going to the ball, IT'S YOUR'S!

GAME OVER!

Final stats (ORE/GT): FGs (20-50/27-59), 3s (6-23/1-16) FTs (36-44/20-30), REBs (37/34), TO (12/12) Stls (8/5)

Man out! #Hoyas take an early loss to @Oregonmbb 82-75 in South Korea

I hope this is not too many tweets for you but I just wanted to let you folks know what went on during the game. I think the Hoyas know how hard they have to work now for the rest of the season. I'd like to see the press more. As a matter of fact with the personnel we have I think it would be a great idea. The Hoyas are a lot better when their legs are loose. I think to use the press for this is a great idea. I love to use the press, I think it wakes players up and makes the game more exciting and fun. The press also makes our players tougher and agressive.

Point guards need to be in triple threat before they get the ball so they can look like a threat before they receive the ball and once they get it "quickly" make their moves before they pass the ball off at times. I cannot stress enough FLOATER FLOATER FLOATER!

But do order you a pair of these Camp Humphreys Georgetown Rock'Em Socks a magnificient representation of our school and armed forces. USA Salute!

ROCK THESE ROCK'EM'S!
