Big East championship week …..

[gsmooth]

For some reason I thought it was a good idea to take Xavier -6.5 - was praying for overtime lol

I have Xavier on the MoneyLine, SMH

 

[Dooooooomed]

Lukosius was robbed, not being on that All Freshmen BE team.

 

[superjohn]

Every time I watch Lukosius he looks like one of the best players in the Big East and he only averages a little over 6 ppg, it's strange.

 

[gsmooth]

Wow...Scruggs zero awareness only foul if you make the FT first to go up by 3.

Not sure Brando even realizes only should have fouled if up 3, clock had nothing to do with it...lol.

low basketball IQ play. You would never see that from Cole, Bynum, or any Nova player

you're still alive at least lol

 

[awfuldan]

That last play Kunkel got fouled and fell down on the play. Freemantle caught the missed shot and instead of helping Kunkel up he went to complain to the ref about what he perceived to be a missed call on him on another play. All while Kunkel was still on the floor. Bad culture.

I mean they had free throws to go up 7 with 0:53 left. They missed 6 of 7 free throws to end the game.

love the chick screaming her head off when X goes to the line

I was praying for overtime after that happened - well after they missed the four in a row - should've clarified

 

[Tommyboy]

Xavier at the line is brutal.

 

[gsmooth]

I have been critical of Steele, but the missed FTs are all on the players

 

[connVA]

Harris, Hodges, and Thompson have fouled out. Butler's going to have to put in the walk-ons pretty soon.

I thought about hedging with Butler plus 6.5 but held off, SMH

 

[Hey Adrien!]

think simas felt snubbed being left off the all-big east freshman team?? wow

Great seeing him play well against another team besides UConn

 

[phillionaire]

this is an epic choke job. Absolutely brutal in a must win game.

 

[metsfan2323]

Typical Big East tournament game. What are the odds Seton Hall / Gtown are still playing at 2:00 am?

 

[awfuldan]

I would be physically sick if I was a Xavier fan watching this game. Would have to take a week off from basketball after.

Meanwhile, Simas "Luka Doncic" Lukosius is taking over.

 

[auror]

Great seeing him play well against another team besides UConn

Yeah he shot 26% from 3 for the year. 4/8 tonight.

 

[connVA]

Lokosius is single-handedly winning this game with more than half of Butler's starting lineup fouled out. Absolutely unreal.

 

[gsmooth]

Wow Nunge misses both. That might be the nail in the coffin

 

[crazyUCfan23]

I feel like Lukosious and Chuck Harris a couple decent pieces for Butler to build around moving forward

 

[connVA]

44% (12-27) from the FT line. They legitimately may be throwing this game LOL

 

[Hey Adrien!]

If Xavier loses, they will lose 8 out of last 10 games.

Awful in any situation, but especially awful since they started the season 16-5.

It is not his fault for the missed FTs, but Steele might be gone

 

[KingAG]

When you have your pg 5th year senior at the line up, twice with less than a minute you expect to win. Xavier is toast, Steele is toast.

 

[gsmooth]

Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory is clearly defined by Xavier in this game

 

[MexicoHusky]

Really haven't paid attention to X that much. Dudnt realize how bad they have collapsed. Xavier is an ok team. Or they were. What a late season collapse. The type of collapse that can put a coach in the hot seat.

 

[wheelerdog]

Did they miss 6 free throws in the final minute of reg?

 

[phillionaire]

i would be losing my mind if I was a Xavier fan holy cow

 

[87Xfer]

Their free throw shooting is just absolutely brutal. I'm telling you, the Screamer was throwing them off
