Providence Game Discussion

NIT will be fun

Feeling Normesk... We're up at the half and then lose the game...

Lavin is ridiculous not having Marco in this game.  Sorry. If we lose, it's on Lavin. Get our only shooter in it.  Rest of the team is playing with great effort.  Certainly Balamou has played great defense, but they are missing offensive assignments if marco was missing defensive ones.  Get our "shooter" on the court!

Have to agree...if for no other reason than to draw attention...shame to lose this game...

That's what happens when you don't run any kind of a set offense.

Absurd comment.  It's what happens when you have nobody that can shoot on the court.  Lavin's fault, he should have played Marco more.  We had that game won.  Just had our only shooter on the bench.  Maddening. 

Damn we could have had this one

I've been the #1 Lavin supporter but my God, you cannot go to the locker room with a timeout in hand and Marco on the bench.  That was just a disaster.

wow needed bougoult for the three pointer

Selfish, by Jakarr at the end

he's our go-to player...are you nuts?

I would have suggested a timeout after the FT miss, but it probably wouldn't have mattered. We are terrible coming out of timeouts.

Why not swing that to Jamal.... C'mon Jakarr second game he's done that at the end!! We get rid of our closer and we look even worse down the stretch . I agree with the not timeout down 3 but how do you no call a timeout down two with 28 seconds left, unreal on coaching staff's end.

+1. Coaching loss today.

Not sure what options he had...he probably was afraid that Greene would shoot the three

How many 3's has he hit this year are you nuts? He had Jamal wide open in the corner second game he has done that this season. He's our best player by far but that's no excuse for not swinging the rock to a wide open shooter in the corner,

Now I know why a guy with 4 sweet sixteen team was run out of Westwood. That was some of the worst coaching I've ever seen. He did everything he could to lose that game

36% FG
9% 3 PT %
57% FT

Read it and weep. we are one of the most offensively challenged teams I have ever seen. Looking forward to hearing Phil's other things he did well. Wheels off!

That's what I was thinking watching it

it would be absurd, but considering I said if was atrocious that Marco wasn't on the floor like 15 minutes ago, no, not really that absurd. We don't run screens. Period.

So many things I could say. Too many dumb things at the end of the game. The pointer possession with 35 seconds left. Branch doesn't touch the ball?

Then JaKarr on that last shot had Jamal, a MUCH better 3pt shooter, wide open for a three but instead takes an off balance step back jumper. Unbelievable act of selflessness. Happened in the home Rutgers loss as well.

And lastly FREE MARCO BOURGOULT.  for goodness sake.

Yeah, we didn't need our only shooter in this game at all

I'm a big Branch fan but he wasn't lighting it up tonight...we needed the ball in Branch's hands with Borgault in the game

Sampson was the only guy putting the ball in the hoop....how can anyone have a problem with him shooting?
