Transcript
00:00 with white numerals.
00:02 And Nahim McLeod to jump setter.
00:04 The ball's up and once again he wins it easily, tipping the ball back
00:06 to Judah Mintz.
00:08 Syracuse has the game's first possession and works
00:10 at the end to our left.
00:12 Smallish gathering here
00:14 at the Dome in this second game of the season.
00:16 Mintz just past midcourt, bounces
00:18 into the right perimeter for Justin Taylor.
00:20 Canisius spreads the floor, comes way out
00:22 defensively. Taylor inside the arc,
00:24 flips it out for Starling, sees a path down the middle of the lane,
00:26 flips the ball up, front rim and in, and a foul.
00:28 JJ Starling draws
00:30 one early. Canisius ball right
00:32 end, with a hash mark on the right, it's Seem Eitendahl.
00:34 One-handed pass above the arc, then
00:36 below the free throw line on the left for Stabesky.
00:38 Drives the baseline, nobody home. He got
00:40 by Mintz, who's saying, "Hey, where was my
00:42 safety help?" Got him
00:44 going a little bit. Stabesky, top of the
00:46 key three, is around the rim and off. Easy rebound
00:48 for Starling. Stabesky is very
00:50 active. Pitch ahead, McLeod
00:52 beat everybody down the floor. Good find
00:54 by Starling for the catch. Easy layup.
00:56 Played eight minutes and change.
00:58 Timeout coming up, into the right corner
01:00 it's Bell, up along the three-point arc.
01:02 Taylor drives in the lane, to the rack, and
01:04 he slams it down with both hands.
01:06 Justin Taylor, the jam.
01:08 Just take three, he's supposed to ball the floor.
01:10 Goes right. Comes all the way out
01:12 near midcourt to recover. On his
01:14 left is Starling with his shirt untucked.
01:16 Tries a blow-by against Pelesi.
01:18 Bank shot with continuation.
01:20 Yes. Wow. Scored the goal and the
01:22 foul on Pelesi.
01:24 Brown around the horn to the
01:26 near side left for Copeland.
01:28 Overhead pass, look away, feed down
01:30 inside for the jam by
01:32 Malik Brown. Great lead
01:34 from Copeland, it's 22.
01:36 Baseline throw in for Stabesky
01:38 and he loops it out top to Gadsden.
01:40 Stabesky,
01:42 who's really came in as their best
01:44 player. Good seal inside,
01:46 a feed for Mitchell, got the defender on his back,
01:48 caught it and dunked. First points
01:50 for Mitchell in the game, it's a three-point contest.
01:52 You know, this is, Stabesky's
01:54 their best player and he really hasn't done a whole lot
01:56 so far. Well, he's been looking for
01:58 everybody else. He's scored only two points, but you can tell
02:00 he's the guy who's kind of making them go.
02:02 He's playing at a different speed.
02:04 Slashing from the right and right to the rim
02:06 goes Qadir Copeland.
02:08 That was a burst of athleticism
02:10 for the Jam. Starling turns over a
02:12 left-hand dribble off a flat screen from
02:14 Malik Brown. Plays it to Brown, backdoor pass
02:16 a beaut to Mintz. He's up the elevator
02:18 for a two-hand slam.
02:20 Behind the back dribble,
02:22 overhead pass deep left corner for Starling.
02:24 Ten on the timer, he works his way into the paint,
02:26 turns and fires over Eitendahl.
02:28 Good on the fadeaway for JJ
02:30 Starling. Held his ground and ran down
02:32 the rebound. That's excellent work.
02:34 Terrific defense by McLeod.
02:36 Slashing to the basket, Starling can't be stopped
02:38 and he draws a foul.
02:40 Eitendahl is his first.
02:42 You know, we're going to say that all year long, really,
02:44 that that's JJ Starling's game.
02:46 Missed the shot, stuffed by the rim. Fritz has
02:48 the rebound. To Stavesky through the middle
02:50 in the lane, right to the rim, up with a right,
02:52 off the glass and in. Taj Stavesky
02:54 pushes the pace. He's got four
02:56 points. To JJ next to the bench.
02:58 Coach Autry directed traffic from
03:00 the right side. Starling crossover dribble.
03:02 Drives on Eitendahl, flips it up
03:04 outside the lane on the right and scores.
03:06 Five and a half minutes gone,
03:08 second half, Taylor gets a go
03:10 here driving on Eitendahl. High glass
03:12 shot is good and one.
03:14 Taylor strong enough to force
03:16 that one off the window and it's in.
03:18 Coach Richie Witherspoon is out on the floor
03:20 barking at his team. On the right
03:22 is Stavesky, step back, 25 footer.
03:24 It's good, front rim and in for
03:26 Stavesky. Wasn't really defended
03:28 but you kind of give him that.
03:30 Judah struggled so far here trying to get
03:32 the shots that he really wants.
03:34 That time he just went right to the basket.
03:36 Stavesky looking for a heat check
03:38 and it's down the middle again from long range.
03:40 He just kind of got.
03:42 Mintz jump pass left for Starling.
03:44 High shot clock. Starling
03:46 off the left elbow to Mintz, top of the key.
03:48 Three on its way, yes and one.
03:50 [crowd cheering]
03:52 Mintz a la Reggie Miller. Point hit
03:54 and a chance at the line.
03:56 Mintz says to Stavesky
03:58 if you can do it so can I.
04:00 Bounce pass down inside the middle.
04:02 The ball poked free by Brown. That's as good as a steal.
04:04 Mintz has it coming up the near side line.
04:06 Mintz accelerates against Pelesi, blows by him
04:08 to the cup, yes and one.
04:10 A finger roll falls for Mintz and once
04:12 again he draws the foul.
04:14 That's exactly what he's done
04:16 the last two or three plays down the court.
04:18 So fast on the dribble you get.
04:20 Just a token slip screen for Brown.
04:22 Starling pocket pass to Mintz.
04:24 Curls into the paint right. He floated her halfway down and out.
04:26 Got his own bank shot, yes and one.
04:28 Drawing another foul.
04:30 Charge it to the basket
04:32 and see what happens from there.
04:34 Made the second free throw. 22 points for him.
04:36 In the lane, little curl
04:38 on a basket for
04:40 Canisius. Foul on extended right.
04:42 It's Trey Dinkins. Fakes left, pushes right against Mintz.
04:44 Judith sticks with him. Up top to
04:46 Ocpo. Four on the timer. Dinkins

04:50 and down the center.
04:52 Brown again just kind of gets in the neighborhood.

04:56 side right of the lane. It's Mintz

05:00 just in time. Front ribbon in
05:02 for Judith Mintz. That was crafty.

05:14 And a timeout by Witherspoon.
05:16 Dinkins does need to get a shot up.

05:20 takes a peek there. Brown goes out to get him on
05:22 the screen. Starling to the free throw line in the middle
