Out of the loop questions: * Is this Gohlke's only season here? * Only 1 minute for Price? I was hoping this would be his breakout season * See we're still pounding most of our starters' minutes (39, 38, 36) I can at least answer the first. Yes, Gohlke is a 5th year grad transfer from Hillsdale College

I was following the live stats off an on and watched some highlights. We exceeded my expectations for sure. This is a very new team, and still not at full strength, so I can see why it's tough to close out games. I'm assuming Rocket was playing the PG spot? He had 3 assists I believe. I like that we had contributions from multiple guys. I was surprised to see the amount of fouls both Conway and Polk had though too. I am now more optimistic about this team. Time will tell.

This game was a big step in making me much more optimistic about the trajectory and construction of this team. The addition of depth and additional perimeter shooters was definitely more apparent than what was shown in the two exhibition games. As Kampe stated in his post game comments, they need Buru eligible to give them that added rebounding presence that was lacking in the 1st half in this game. Kampe also sounded more optimistic about maybe getting Buru back by their next game or the following one after, so here's to hoping that's the case because I think the addition of him into the starting lineup or playing big minutes off the bench could take this team up to another level that many thought wasn't really possible this year. Buru was regarded as the team's top offseason acquisition, as Oakland was able to beat out two A-10 schools (Rhode Island and St. Bonaventure) along with several other notable schools to get him, so it shouldn't be understated the impact he can bring to this team. Watch his highlight videos and you will see what the hype is around him and why he needs to get on the floor.
