Message: [QUOTE="EricLA, post: 5117398, member: 26"] Great comments and analysis by many on here. Not much to add so i'll just say... IIRC the announcers said this is Lemoyne's 2nd year in Division 1? Good for them. I thought they played hard and have some talented offensive pieces. I'd like to say "they kept it close in the first half by playing hard", but the reality is - going 0-9 from 3 with wide open looks will keep a score closer than it should be. hit 3 or 4 of them and it's a blowout pretty early on. Didn't see this mentioned but why didn't Hurley call a timeout to get Singare in at the end? He went to the scorer's table with 3'ish minutes left. It's not like we needed to save a TO. I saw 2 Lemoyne players at the scorer's table as well - was Hurley just being stubborn expecting Lemoyne to call the TO? Either way I was disappointed. In a blowout like that, there is really no excuse not to get Singare into the game. Regarding Johnson and Mahaney starting - I get that Hurley may be superstitious, but for the most part Reed and Diarra have consistently looked better than the 2 starters. Not blaming the slow starts on them, but a slow start against a really good team could mean being down 10 early on. Obviously missing open 3's isn't the fault of Mahaney or Johnson, but it would be interesting to see things switched up. Having said that, Dan Hurley is a brilliant coach, and whatever reasons he has for what he does I'm all in for. Not like he needs any approval, but this is a fan opinion board... [/QUOTE]
