I guess he’s just massively regressed offensively, then, because he is not close to the offensive player he was last season.

Defense has been excellent. Need to find the rhythm again on offense.

I like La Salle sitting there with 6 fouls already at the 13 minute mark

Re: 1/18 | La Salle | 12:30PM (NBCSN)
The half court offense runs in slow motion. Like, technically they are running stuff but guys are just jogging thru it like they are installing it in September. The motion is not deliberate, it is like quarter speed.

We have 21 free throws. LaSalle has 2. Unfortunately we've only made 12 of them.

One of my buddies I'm watching with, who is seeing the team for the first time this year, said to me "do you guys always just sleepwalk through your offense like this?"

Finally a little run. Walker’s steal and finish was a nice thing to see!

Re: 1/18 | La Salle | 12:30PM (NBCSN)
I am so impressed with how skilled he is. I hadn’t seen him play before he got on the court here, and he’s a much different type of player than I expected. He’s a really good basketball player - I kind of expected just an athlete, if I’m being honest.

54-46 under 8
We had it up to 13 then they go on a big run
Very sloppy game let’s just get out of here with a win and move on to Duquesne

Re: 1/18 | La Salle | 12:30PM (NBCSN)
This is the laziest I've ever seen us play.
We got a lead and just stopped and Cox just waits WAY too long to call a timeout.
C'mon

Re: 1/18 | La Salle | 12:30PM (NBCSN)
This is a very poorly coached team in-game. On a personal level, I like Cox a lot and I think he does some stuff well, but a team that gives up a 17-2 run at home against a virtually talentless opponent is rudderless. The talent on this team is so much better than La Salle that they will likely just out-talent them to the finish line, but you have a 14 point lead against a team like this at home, that has to be a 25 point laugher and not a nail-biter.

Re: 1/18 | La Salle | 12:30PM (NBCSN)
He should have called a timeout ages ago.
As soon as a team starts to get momentum you call a timeout to stymie it.
You should never just wait for the TV timeout.

Two big plays back to back by Tyrese on the offensive board/put back and the steal on the other end. He got beat on that back cut a couple times but he was all over it there.

Good coaching by Ashley Howard.

Re: 1/18 | La Salle | 12:30PM (NBCSN)
Going to escape but this second half was one of the worst offensive performances I’ve seen. I’ll take the W and I’m not going to say “can’t do this against....” because that’s not how this works. Still, I think the half court offense needs a ton of work or there is a ceiling for this team.

Should have blown them out. Instead we struggled to win.

Well it was ugly, but a win is a win. Did enough down the stretch to hang on at least.
Big game on Wednesday. Which is weird to say for a Duquesne game.
