Men vs Memphis

[Dual-Threat Rigby 9,035]

people MAY not like this. But I think...and small sample size...that Justin Powell has the purest stroke out of anyone in the BP era. Few other options, I get it, but mechanically man

 

he's PURE

[Maverick.AU 13,291]

Powell fouled on the 3! Converts the 4pt play! 41-38 AU!!!

[tgrogan21 6,198]

Oh, hey, look! Powell shooting lights out!

[tgrogan21 6,198]

Man, Memphis with like 20 extra possessions there.

[Maverick.AU 13,291]

Good lord can we not hang on to the ball on pontential turnovers, ugh. 41-41. AU ball after Memphis goes 1-2 from the line 

[gr82b4au 5,574]

Once again I will repeat what I have said in every bball thread this year. If we had Cooper playing point and Powell was able to just shoot, he would be unreal. 

[Maverick.AU 13,291]

Travel on Memphis. 41-41

[Dual-Threat Rigby 9,035]

Dude is going to be a hell of a scorer when he doesn't have to worry about setting the table as much. 

[Maverick.AU 13,291]

Nice mid range by Powell! 43-41 AU. 17 pts for him

[tgrogan21 6,198]

Aside from Powell's first shot, we've taken some absolute stinkers this half.

[tgrogan21 6,198]

Will Powell set a career-high tonight in points?

[GTNupe11 2,077]

Can hear literally every word Bruce Pearl is saying, Lol. It's GREAT.

[tgrogan21 6,198]

SMH bad call.

[Maverick.AU 13,291]

So that got to keep the foul, lol, ok. Memphis goes 0-2 from the line tho. Powell with the floater and fouled

[tgrogan21 6,198]

Ball don't lie

[Maverick.AU 13,291]

Powell hits 1-2. 18 pts. 44-41 

[Dual-Threat Rigby 9,035]

I promise on my forefather I used that exact same phrase to  describe Devin after the wide open three he missed in the first half 

 

Wish we got Landers Nolley bro 

[GTNupe11 2,077]

Devin has to stop shooting.

[Maverick.AU 13,291]

Ugh terrible sequence. Memphis 3. 46-44 Memphis 

[tgrogan21 6,198]

Powell can stop trying to throw lobs. That's not in his arsenal right now.

[Dual-Threat Rigby 9,035]

Memphis is older and deeper so it'd make sense, but the frenetic pace is way more in their favor right now

[Maverick.AU 13,291]

Ugh just a terrible last few possessions, Powell gets the steal and misses the layup, foul on Thor on the other end. 46-44 Memphis at the under 16 timeout.

I was scared when Powell went down on the layup after the steal. He hit the court pretty hard.

[Maverick.AU 13,291]

DC away from home just makes me sad man. He just can’t find it.
