Too busy having stare-downs and face modeling with officials as if they were personally attacking him. Keep your eyes on the game, your players and opponents. The officials aren't intimidated and you look like an idiot on stage.
Agree. There was a time when there was "no shooting" to an overemphasis on shooting. Have to find the middle. Shoot, defend and take it to the rim.
When the defense continues to overplay your three point line shooters you have to make them pay. You could see them actually being
Lots of sensitive souls on the team. Blaming the fans again is incredible.
In my mind, Reed is the exception here. I think that he is better than he was last year.
What is wrong with everyone on this board???? This team just absolutely destroyed St John’s by 32 points about a week ago. That’s 12 more points than we lost by tonight. It was total devastation, domination, UConn embarrassed them. Rick Pitino is a hall of fame coach. And has won every where he has coached. Danny coached his worst game tonight. Our backup point guard didn’t get into the game till about the 10 minute mark in the second half and our starting point guard was exhausted and useless in the second half. Terrible coaching job and Karajan was useless in this game and yet he played almost the entire game. Danny was simply out couched. Silas was exhausted in the second half. Coaching malpractice. He forgot to put in our backup point guard. JMHO. A few coach’s simply have totally out coached him this year. Shaka, Pitino, Seton Hall coach to name a few. And he’s back to being embarrassing with his temper tantrums. We’ll do better in the NCAA TOURNAMENT.
We destroyed dominated embarrassed, ran St. John’s out of the building a week ago. They can get to the final 4 or lose in the first weekend. Fingers crossed.
Mullins was 19 when he graduated HS and he’s 8 months older than Cooper Flagg.
We destroyed St John’s by 32 points a week ago. They can beat almost any team in the tournament but not if Dan Hurley resorts to his coaching malpractice style ( stomping his feet and screaming all night. ) he played Silas alll game until the 10 minute mark of the second half and he was exhausted. Our 2 point guards are capable 3 point shooters and they didn’t get much help in getting open and our hall of fame captain was beyond useless in a frenetic fast paced physical game. Yet he played the entire game. Bad coaching just like having an entire week to prepare for the last place team for a chance to share the Big East regular season total and we lost to better coaching and better game planning.
Pitino has won a few nattys and it may be different than history shows. They did lose last year to a good Arkansas team.
But he made the most of his 25! Very surprised his development actually seemed to regress. I was hoping he was going to continue with his midrange game last night but he didn't.
Not sure. The quote from his Dad saying something like I wouldnt be unhappy if he stayed leads me to believe he might stay in college
Very surprising there wasn't adjustment to the midrange at halftime. We've seen that Braylon, Silas and Solo all have a good midrange shot but it was no where to be found last night
You need to be able to put the ball on the floor and create space for a middie. Against physical, good defenders, who can do that on this team with any regularity?
I dislike Pitino but the guy can coach
Seems like most of our court play was well scripted. Our offense long clock with a targeted player or two getting open threes. How did that work out? When opponents pressed us that took time away from running our precision offense. Our guards were wired to dribble, even more so as the season wound down. The defense only had to worry about three (3) point shooters. Against most teams that was enough many nights (30 wins).
