The Official MBB Oregon vs. Vanderbilt Game Thread

  • We're about 10 minutes away from tip-off here at Matthew Knight Arena as the Ducks look to move to 3-0 tonight as they take on the Vanderbilt Commodores. DuckTerritory will have live in-game updates throughout the game, so check the original post often for the latest on the matchup between the Ducks and 'Dores.

    Pre-game:

    *Doubt we'll have a sellout at Matt Knight Arena tonight, but the place is a buzz for this matchup between Oregon and Vandy.
    *Tonight's starting lineup for Oregon: G - Artis, G - Loyd, G - Dotson, F - Singler, C - Woods

    First half:

    *Great dish from Loyd to Woods for the slam and the foul. Woods goes to the shooting 1. FT good.
    *Gotta say, very impressed with Tony Woods' improved touch around the basket this year. Developing into a legit weapon on offense. 5-3 UO.
    *Standing "O" for Olympic gold medalist Ashton Eaton. Seems like we get one of these at least a couple times a year.
    *Arsalan Kazemi now in the game for Oregon after getting his transfer waiver accepted by the NCAA.
    *Loyd having a difficult time holding on to the ball right now. 2 turnovers in 2 possessions. 15-10 Oregon.
    *Back-to-back threes by Dotson and Singler gives Oregon a 23-14 lead. Crowd starting to come alive.
    *Singler fouled and hits the shot and will go to the line for 1. Altman subbing liberally right now. Missed the FT.
    *Dotson AGAIN with a three and Oregon has doubled up Vandy, 28-14. Ducks shooting great in transition. Length an issue right now for Vandy.
    *Kazemi very active on defense. Comes up with the steal by is called for double-dribble as he tries to wall off a Vandy defender.
    *Leading scorers for Oregon right now: Singler 9, Woods 7, Dotson 6.
    *Big dunk in transition from Dotson. Young Ducks showing a lot of energy in this first half. 2:25 left, 34-18 Oregon.
    *Emory with a dunk now off a nice low post dish from Woods. Sharing is always caring.
    *Loyd makes up for an airballed three with an alley oop to Kazemi. Matt Knight is excite. 38-20 Oregon.
    *Great first half by Oregon is capped off by a Loyd bomb before the first half buzzer sounds. 41-20 Ducks at halftime. Wow.

    Haltime:

    *E.J. Singler leads all scorers with 12 points. Woods 8, Dotson 8.
    *In his first game as a Ducks, Kazemi has been doing all the dirty work, leading the team with 5 rebounds and providing boundless energy.
    *Oregon shooting an even 50% from the field as a team. Vanderbilt on the other hand is struggling. 27.2 percent.
    *Ducks also assisting on 12 of 16 buckets. The Commodores as a team have only 2 assists. Not an early formula for success for Vandy.

    Second half:

    *Mark down another steal for Kazemi. Guy has gotta be annoying to play against...relentless, always in your grill.
    *Loyd out after picking up his 3rd foul. Artis comes in along with Ben Carter, who subs in for Kazemi.
    *Vandy coach Kevin Stallings just got T'ed up. Singler will go to the line to shoot two...aaand now Stallings has been ejected...Bad night getting worse for Vanderbilt.
    *Singler goes 3 of 4 from the line and Oregon will have the ball. 44-25 Oregon, 15:50 left.
    *Excellent ball movement on that last possession from Oregon. Singler buries a three right before the shot clock sounds. 47-29 Oregon.
    *If Oregon can get Damyean Dotson to play this well for the entire season, Ducks could be a force to be reckoned with. 10 points for DD.
    *Singler leads all scorers with 18. Dotson with 10.
    *Something off about Emory early this season. Mirroring the way he played early last season...out of sync.
    *Holy #*&%...Loyd to a streaking Emory for a reverse jam on the alley-oop. That was insane. 60-40 Oregon. Emory now making me look bad. Has 9 points.
    *Arsalan Kazemi only scores baskets on alley oops. 62-40 Oregon.
    *Oregon leading 71-48 with 2:53 left in the game. Ducks have been really firing on all cylinders this game.

  • Tony Woods looking pretty impressive early in this game. Ducks can't get a jumper to fall and should continue using Woods to attack the basket. 7-3 Oregon.

  • This is perhaps a perfect start for Oregon basketball. Big crowd and putting up points in various ways. Exciting the crowd. Needed this.

    Oregon State beat Purdue today and Colorado took down No.16 Baylor

  • I got to say DA is one hell of a complete coach:

    He can recruit some very nice players, regardless of the teams situation. He can coach them up once he gets them, and get them to play together very quickly; and best of all, he is a wonderful game coach.

    He has exceed my expectations going into the season the last 3 years running. I think he is our best coach since Harter.

  • I bet Dana Altman says he was pleased with the first half performance but hated the first 6 minutes of the 2nd half and thus will be mad.

    I have a had time understanding why Dotson was under the radar star/ranking-wise.

    He is ultra athletic, plays great on ball D, he is fairly skilled (considering his athleticism) and can shoot the three pretty darn well. Sounds like a high 4/5 star guy to me... I'm just glad we got him.

  • If you have twitter tweet ESPN with the #SCTop10 hashtag for the Emory half court reverse alley-oop dunk!

    You're not the only one, kid was definitely rated too low. I'm glad he was though lol.

  • This team looks pretty freaking good now with Kazemi added to the mix. Tons of size and athleticism.

  • Now I know this isn't the same Vandy team as last year but my god! Ducks look very good running the 3 bigs at the same time. If they play that good this early..... We could see another Duck team take a run at the PAC-12 title.

    Fun game. I don't think we played very well and still crushed them.
