SMU game thread

This team is just not good. I actually wonder how they've won 20 games because I have never been this embarrassed watching a team play basketball. Those double screens aren't working on offense, and blocking out apparently has never been taught. How in the hell do you turn it over 10 times in one half of basketball, oh so many questions and just one answer: Dumb basketball players

I can tolerate losing. I can't tolerate not caring

This. Losing is not the issue. Huge game with implications and your team looks like they don't even want to be in the gym.

"Ollie needs to go, this team would be so much better without him"

You called it man. The thread (thankfully) has been deleted. But you still called it. Well done sir!

If you're not watching this game and wondering if a team could be any dumber then I'm not sure what you're seeing. During this run at one time Brimah and Facey put on a clinic as to where no to be. Gibbs dribbled into traffic 2-3 times, Omar Calhoun comes in the game immediately has a wide open 3 and ball fakes I could go on and on but the truth is this team is not smart enough to participate in March Madness and their balls are raisins. Like a cheap tent - NO one is near an offensive rebound, heck I'm not sure anyone is near a defensive rebound?

Wow, pitiful half, disheartening yet again.

Let's be honest, we need to do alot of things that won't happen most likely. If/when we lose this game, i thing we need to get to the finals to make the NCAAT

We need to get by ucf before that!!!

 

[Husky Dad]

Threads getting erased tonight. All I am saying is I'll take 2m dollars to sit front row at every Husky game and not say a word.

We have like six shot clock violations in one half!

The last one there's two seconds on the shot clock. We inbounds it near half court. Literally nobody moves. No play called. Nobody moves. So we throw it in to our power forward who shoots a turnaround fadeaway three. Not saying that's a great situation or phil Jackson would magically draw up a play that results in a layup. But we don't set a pick. Run a play. Literally Nothing.

How can that not be a coaching issue? I just don't get how people don't see it.

^^ THIS ^^

This team is so done unless something changes in a hurry. They either need a big time comeback tonight or to make the championship game in the tournament.

 

[mauconnfan]

Thank God for "Vikings" in one minute!

 

[Rocktheworld]

I don't know what you all want KO to do with the back court playing the way it is. Gibbs is playing like he doesn't belong in D1. Purvis isn't playing much better. Adams is playing hurt and scared in his first true hostile environment. Omar is not a reliable ball handler and has been dribbling himself into trouble. And then there's Sam Cassell.

 

[AdamaNation]

I hope Ollie is not the next tubby smith

 

[CardiacAndre7]

Simply awful. No heart, No pulse, No basketball IQ and I will also say it's my feeling that Kevin O got lucky in winning the NC. Yes I like him alot but he had Calhouns players and what has this team accomplished since then ----- Nothing and its going to be the NIT again.

What next !!!!!!

I'm gonna stop you right there. Ollie hasn't been at his best but he is NOT the problem!! Not alot of coaches could make this team great. We are in constant foul trouble, no one can consistently hit shots or drive the lane effectively, and our inside game is often non-existent. And never again say KO got lucky, that team had heart like no other, and that was because KO coached the hell out of those kids. When you have kids like Shabazz, Boat and Giffey, you are gonna look like a better coach than with this roster. Stop it.

Think about this one for a minute. Amazing - 20 points with 4 threes and 4 FT's.

Yeah 2 baskets inside the arc in 20 minutes - GROSS

 

[djct1999]

Pathetic half of basketball.

 

[BugsyCT]

Reminds me too much of watching UConn football the last 5 years.

 

[willie99]

so hard to watch, I wish I could stop

maybe we can start having support meetings during UConn games

Hi everyone, my name is Willie, and I can't stop watching UConn basketball no matter how bad they suck

 

[Leebo]

temery must love these games, more traffic (and new people) than any other time

 

[UCSLP]

Calhoun would have yanked the whole squad off the court-put in 2nd team after getting a technical!-Ollie has no fire or plan

 

[Husky Dad]

I am a Giants fan. So I had that season. I am a Husky fan and I had high hopes. It's bad.

 

[Lefty2one]

Would love to see the advanced stats on our PnR game...we get absolutely nothing out of it, ever.

 

[ConnZag3]

Are we allergic to the paint? Can't seem to find it on either offense or defense tonight...

Collective "Hi Willie"

 

[mauconnfan]

Hi willie, my name is Kevin and I also have trouble turning off the Huskies despite the ulcers they have created in my body.

 

[HomeKing93]

Why Miller doesn't touch the ball more in the post against man to man defenses is baffling.

 

[husky99]

Want to be positive. ... but out played and no heart
