Am watching end of 2nd half replay right now, instead of local news. Diarra, Alleyne, and Hawk were are major liabilities in 2nd half, especially last 10 minutes when game was still winnable. Dumb passes into the paint, lazy passes intercepted, ball handlers susceptible to steals, stepping OOB, and what seemed like a lack of communication (anyone at the game can confirm or deny). And let's just throw in a couple of phantom foul calls for good measure.

What I don't want to hear is that the entire team quit. Certainly Clingan and Karaban didn't. What I will say is that there seemed a lot of disorganization on D, allowing SJU too many easy cuts to the hoop. SJU has players who can break down a defender (as AJax learned) but there was no help. And Soriano's ability to hit mid-range stuff made things even more difficult for Clingan and Sanogo.

It was basically an undisciplined mess. And that's odd coming from this team and this coach. I'm confident it can be fixed, but I worry about the value of both Diarra and Alleyne when we need smart guard play down the stretch.
