...was real bad. Wow that was bad. No killer instinct. No urgency.

But still...we have a tiny bit of hope tonight.
 
Vital and Gilbert 5-22 combined. We need to run more offense and take better shots. Have better possesions.

We're shooting 31.4%. St. Joes 52.8%. They've also knocked down 10 threes. Need to close out better on the perimeter and not over defend. This game is still very winnable.
 
Really bad describes the first half. Pathetic would describe the last possession. I had bad feelings of 2017 deja Vu.
 
Thought “IDK”... And I can’t stand floaters... just simply put the ball off the backboard and lay it in. If you’re too far out pass it. AG&CV have to show leadership in the 2nd half. Win or Lose, right now it looks like they’re still Freshman
 
Cutting it to under 15 would’ve been a big win at that point. No idea what the hell AG was doing. Hurley looked pi$$ed as he should’ve been.
 
That play by AG at end of half was old “vital-esque”. These guys cannot shoot. Only one playing is akok. Cant wait to get bouknight in there
 
My grandfather who has never watched basketball in his life and barely speaks english saw that play at the end of the half and said, "What the hell was he doing?" while laughing.
 
Did we have a TO? Sorry with 21 seconds on the clock you have to set up a play to score the ball, get a good shot. I mean if you watched Gilbert and Vital already in the first half what are the chances of them making a good decision at the buzzer? C'mon Dan Hurley get a TO baby!
 
Yes, can someone please describe the play...not just how bad it was. I was in class and couldn't watch the fist half.

Going from memory, but with 21 seconds left AG pounded it down above the key, made a move to the top left and took a runner from 15 feet that might have caught a little bit of the side of the rim when the buzzer sounded.

As it was molding I said "not again" Same scenario.Walk the court, stop at half court or top of the key. You must wait for 2 seconds to start the play. Why don't take it down court and PLAY!!

Agreed. That was ridiculous. Even if we had bigs to grab the rebound and put it back, there was no time to do so.
