[BAMAVILLE]

Let's use this thread as a catch-all for the Bama Europe tour ...

 

[BAMAVILLE]

First up ... Spain:

Got the starting nod:
PG Mark Sears
SG Rylan Griffen
SF Brandon Miller
PF Noah Clowney
C Charles Bediako


Seems like they pretty much ran the Spain team off the court.
The new guys put up some solid stats:

Rylan Griffen - 19, 5 as
Brandon Milller - 19, 6 rebounds
Noah Clowney - 12, 6 stls
Dom Welch - 11, 3 treys
Nimari Burnett - 10 pts, 5 asts

This is pretty much like an exhibition but the positive is guys that will most likely come off the bench have at least showed they can score ... which should help alleviate past woes of long scoring droughts.

I love that Griffen's parents were able to make the trip and attend his debut. That's some awesome support right there!

with the Crimson Tide utilizing solid shooting … to defeat the Spain Select Team

that’s refreshing

Was this game streamed or on TV today?

 

[Marg]

This is hard to do against air...

"Leading 27-20 after the first quarter of play, Alabama went on to outscore Spain 81-34 over the final three quarters en route to the win"

Was this game streamed or on TV today?

Nope. No TV, stream or radio broadcast.

Nope. No TV, stream or radio broadcast.

But I saw where the SEC network was showing Auburn at Israel about 57 times in a row

 

[BamaMoon]

Really encouraging reports about the new players. I can't wait to see them in action!!!

Next game up ... Lithuanian Men's B National Team (Aug. 11, Paris)

If you follow the various traffic on twitter about all things Bama sports, you'll frequently see the phrase, "hang it in the Louvre." Well, the basketball team is in Paris and they found confirmation:

It is over

 

[teamplayer]

That is another nice win for the guys in crimson. I am looking forward to seeing this team play. I really hope we are a better TEAM than last year. We had some talent last year, but we often looked like all five guys had different play books and different levels of effort.

 

[CajunCrimson]

I wonder if it’s a style thing or a talent thing. But these haven’t been much of a test.
