There's no doubt that Weber State, Sac State and Idaho are playing the best early season basketball of Big Sky teams. As for the Griz -- playing without Mario Dunn, and missing him -- they looked like a young team still learning how to play together. Ahead by 12 midway through the first half, they turn the ball over on five straight possessions and promptly go scoreless for 7 minutes. Simply put, they look out of synch on offense and a step slow on defense.
Simply put, Montana needs scoring production from one or two players besides Martin Breunig. MB scores 28 while the rest of the team scores 25. Breunig shoots 75% ( 12-16) from the field, the rest of the team is 9-for-30! Yikes. Huge imbalance, even though the Griz had a lot of open looks through the game.
And, for the second straight game, a huge disparity in fouls: Griz 29, Bison 16. The Griz shoot 16 free throws compared to NDSU's 34.
For a brief 10 minute stretch to open the game, I saw a team comparable to last year's squad. So, I'm gonna hope they'll make improvements game by game.
