Great game between the Seton Hall "shirt grabbers" and the St Johns "body bumpers". Or vice versa?

St. John's has Seton Hall right where they went them this half. Seton Hall likely won't press if they're up 13. They're 5/9 from 3, you know they're clanking a couple down the stretch here. Odds of a St. John's comeback: HIGH.

Also St. John's is in the bonus with 10 minutes to go.
 
I thought UConn missed alot of layups, Seton Hall is something else, they've left at least a dozen points on the table
 
Seton Hall got so soft right when they needed to be tough. This isn’t even the good St. John’s lineup. This is Darling, Prey, Sanon and Mitchell.

Every time I watch Dillon Mitchell he looks like an NBA player who got added onto a college team.
 
If Seton Hall loses it's because they can't make free throws. They've left a lot of points on the table. They have made the Red Storm play their game, got them in foul trouble, kept the score low, but they have to convert.

St. John's takes the lead, predictably.

Seton Hall should've started pressing when they were up 7 lol.

Seton Hall went up 15 and then responded with one of the worst 10 minute stretches of basketball I've ever seen. Can't make layups, can't make FTs, can't grab defensive rebounds, multiple careless turnovers, and non-stop hacking on defense to put St Johns in the bonus early.
 
Darling left so early on the missed free throw, I think the refs were just not looking for it.

Fire Kim English.

I have never seen a player make THE PERFECT dumb, sloppy plays to consistently find a creative way to throw away a game as Corey Floyd, but English doesn't sit guys no matter what they do. That's probably a big reason he can't get them to play defense. They never have a game when all their best players are playing, and 0-4 in OT games speaks to not learning from mistakes. English also refuses to get on the refs the same way he refuses to get on his players, and just like with the players, the refs take advantage of him not being "the squeaky wheel" who demands that the refs call it both ways.

If we’re genuine championship contenders we should not be scared of SJU. We have a 1 game lead and should at least split the series with them.

St Johns will be going home the first weekend of the tourney but in conference they are hell to deal with

Butler slowly pulling away. I like Bizjack, but he does a lot better against bad teams than good teams. I think some of his goofy moves don't work against better defenders.
 
Ian Jackson probably didn’t make his triumphant return home to New York thinking he’d sit behind Dylan Darling for the last 18 minutes of games.
 
St. Johns can defend the rim. SHU's kamikaze drives resulted in a lot of tough shots. Sometimes mid-range is the right shot on offense.
 
47-32 at the under 16 timeout and these dudes are sitting on 56 points, flat out embarrassing hoops for 15 minutes
