Game #2 - @ SMU - November 11th @ 8:00pm

bigappleram · Unread post by **bigappleram** » 10 years ago

no PG play
dont look now but EC running the point
out of sheer necessity after two dumb fouls by biggie and horrific play by powell
playing 4 on 5 rt now, exacerbated by fact that they have a good PG

love what i see from gil, iffy and EC

iffy has great hands and feet, when he masters the skill and touch around the rim he will be lethal.

SMU up 5.

HIT YOUR FREE THROWS

clap clap, clapclapclap

Unread post by **TruePoint** » 10 years ago

Free throws and layups killing us. Rebounding keeping us in the game.

jcru · Unread post by **jcru** » 10 years ago

SMU being almost as bad at offense as we are is keeping us in the game.

jcru · Unread post by **jcru** » 10 years ago

Two really bad turnovers in a row.

Unread post by **ATPTourFan** » 10 years ago

At least EC hit a free throw. Ugh.

Hard to watch them turn it over with dumb fouls/walks.

Unread post by **TruePoint** » 10 years ago

Own worst enemies right now.

jcru · Unread post by **jcru** » 10 years ago

Apparently we get every "third" call, so that foul was on them.

Phew.

jcru · Unread post by **jcru** » 10 years ago

TJ hits two free throws.

Front page news.

jcru · Unread post by **jcru** » 10 years ago

Down only 5 by a miracle.

jcru · Unread post by **jcru** » 10 years ago

Powell didn't even hit the rim on that three point attempt.

Why is he in there?

jcru · Unread post by **jcru** » 10 years ago

If this were a performance on stage, a big hook would come out stage right and take Powell away.

Unread post by **TruePoint** » 10 years ago

If I were coaching, I couldn't trust Powell or Minnis right now.

twisted3829 · Unread post by **twisted3829** » 10 years ago

shot selection is key tight now

Unread post by **ATPTourFan** » 10 years ago

Imagine what we could do as a team if we could shoot even an average low 40%!!?!?

POWELL!! UGH

Unread post by **TruePoint** » 10 years ago

UUUUGGGGGHHHHH. Can't imagine playing much worse, and its right there for us. Just clean it up *a little* and we'll be in fine shape.

rodfromcranston · Unread post by **rodfromcranston** » 10 years ago

Disgusting offensive display.
Looks like a bunch of guys who just met off the street.
No ball movement, can't shoot, or make free throws.
Dan needs to do some yelling at halftime.

Nj I was just gonna say that

RIFan · Unread post by **RIFan** » 10 years ago

This is hard to watch

RIFan · Unread post by **RIFan** » 10 years ago

Trip on ball = 2 PTS other way

They look like the bad news bears

twisted3829 · Unread post by **twisted3829** » 10 years ago

offensive is too much dribble right now

Unread post by **ATPTourFan** » 10 years ago

Help! Help us shoot the damn ball.

Just need one nice shot to drop. Entire team is feeling the weight of this inability to execute on offense.

Unread post by **TruePoint** » 10 years ago

We've scored 4 points in seven minutes.

skwalk47 · Unread post by **skwalk47** » 10 years ago

Bleh, they cannot get any easy shots. This looks like its getting out of hand. Not feeling good about taking the points with Rhody today...

Unread post by **ATPTourFan** » 10 years ago

Amazing it took that long for a timeout. We're taking a steaming dump on this court right now.

Unread post by **TruePoint** » 10 years ago

Wheels falling off. Are we saving timeouts for later this year or what?

jcru · Unread post by **jcru** » 10 years ago

33-20 SMU.

Stop the bleeding.

rodfromcranston · Unread post by **rodfromcranston** » 10 years ago

Wow! We can't score and can't stop anybody.
This could get really ugly.

Unread post by **ATPTourFan** » 10 years ago

3 more turnovers (10 total) than made field goals. VOMIT

Billyboy78 · Unread post by **Billyboy78** » 10 years ago

This looks eerily similar to last year.

adam914 · Unread post by **adam914** » 10 years ago

Well, this aint Maine, thats for sure...

gorhody89 · Unread post by **gorhody89** » 10 years ago

This looks worse than last year

bigappleram · Unread post by **bigappleram** » 10 years ago

it all starts with PG play, we look lost in the half court with no one running the team.

the most valuable asset in college hoops and it could be a giant question mark all year for us.

Unread post by **TruePoint** » 10 years ago

For the record, we are 4-30 from three this season.

Edit: make that 4-31 now. 13%.

rodfromcranston · Unread post by **rodfromcranston** » 10 years ago

0-10 from 3. 'Look like we're walking in quicksand on D.

RIFan · Unread post by **RIFan** » 10 years ago

This is really bad...we need to recruit a PG and Shooter

adam914 · Unread post by **adam914** » 10 years ago

I feel like we have no interior defense either. Didnt matter much against Maine, showing up big now.

NJ03 · Unread post by **NJ03** » 10 years ago

Killing ourselves. There's no way we are this much worse than SMU

hrstrat57 · Unread post by **hrstrat57** » 10 years ago

...just ran 5 seconds off that clock after the play ended...

Unread post by **TruePoint** » 10 years ago

Gil going to the bench with 2 fouls did not help. Can pretty much trace the problems back to that.

gorhody89 · Unread post by **gorhody89** » 10 years ago

Butler can shoot right, might wanna throw him out there

jcru · Unread post by **jcru** » 10 years ago

37-24 half

ram1980 · Unread post by **ram1980** » 10 years ago

Dribble, dribble, dribble.. Turnovers. Lousy shooting.. No hustle.. Let's see how good our coach really is in 2nd half. Looks eerily like Baron ball to me

Yeah let's put in the guy who threw up three airballs in garbage time against Maine. Butler will play with the walk-ons this year, if at all. SMU looks much better than last year obviously but so much of this is self-inflected. Munford has to show up and start hitting shots. Powell needs to wake up.

jcru · Unread post by **jcru** » 10 years ago

" This.

The worst is Powell trying to be the hero with 25 seconds still on the shot clock multiple times down the floor throwing up air balls from three point land.

Sooo many wasted opportunities because one guy thinks he's going to swing the momentum the cheap way instead of paying the iron price.

KMar970 · Unread post by **KMar970** » 10 years ago

awful first half need to make some shots badly

Iggy1979 · Unread post by **Iggy1979** » 10 years ago

Hate to say but the offensive sets look like Baron Ball at its worse

jaywin86 · Unread post by **jaywin86** » 10 years ago

My halftime thoughts....

ONLY WAY IS UP, FROM THAT 1ST HALF!

Billyboy78 · Unread post by **Billyboy78** » 10 years ago

Not many positives...poor shooting all around, turnovers, interior defense, not boxing out on defensive board leading to many layups for SMU....I'm still searching for a positive.
