can't buy a 3

2-15 from. 3 amazing.

 

[UconnFanNVa]

We have no shooters open up the floor. Dham and boat are our best, and boat can't get the ball in his hands

 

[boog204]

we've given up so many open looks

 

[Rocktheworld]

Refs have been horrible, but another learning point. Boat is pissed shows in his body language and on court demeanor. As he good, so does the rest of the team. Bad calls will happen, can't let that take your head out of the game.

Shut up that has nothing to do with it we are simply shooting abysmally and just shot ourselves in the foot early with TOs (nearly half coming from a freshman)

 

[amory]

Gotta make shots to win

Edit: including free throws God damn

 

[RipCity]

I haven't seen us shoot this bad since Louisville

 

[8893]

We got out-toughed tonight. Hats off to Huggins; he had a good game plan, and we can't buy a shot.

 

[CardiacAndre7]

we don't have a viable back up pg able to dribble consistently

 

[tzznandrew]

This loss doesn't worry me too much. It's largely missed shots (many that were open and a number of FTs) and a boatload of TOs by Hamilton in one key stretch. Both are things that will be cleaned up, I think.

 

[BleedHuskyBlu]

Quality wins? We never beat them Lol

 

[boog204]

We really don't have any shooters. We lost three excellent ones. DHam is pretty good, but he's a freshmen and after all the turnovers he got tentative. Boat is okay, but he's certainly not Bazz as a shooter. Cassell, for how good he was in the exhibitions, has not shown any consistency against "real" competition. TSam's range is about 3 feet, Purvis shot well at NC State but his M.O. is that he's not a shooter. Omar, who knows... We're getting pretty good looks but there's nothing to show for it. In this game, Amida's purpose offensively is to wait for alley oops. We've worked very, very hard to make this lose competitive. But we've got to figure some things out on the offensive end.

Wait until next year when our only viable pg is a freshman

Shut up? Are we 5? You can simply say you disagree. I think wv got into his head personally. I think he'll get better at dealing with those situations in the future.

 

[BugsyCT]

Too many empty trips around the time we cut it to 6. We got out-toughed but if we could knock down shots it's a different game.

That uncalled goaltending was brutal, too. Would have gotten it to 4, I think.

If "shut up" hurts your feelings, I'll say the same thing with more words: please remove yourself and your poorly-thought-out comments from this continuing conversation. You won't be missed.

Yeah that was an odd thing to say

 

[amory]

This sucks but we are a good team. We have so many talented players including Facey which is awesome.

Bright future for us this year

Trust me your incapable of hurting my feelings. Conversion here tends to be a little more intelligent than shut up though. I'm used to people expressing their differing opinions in a respectful way.

If they stayed healthy (Purvis), didn't lose their composure, as freshmen are wont to do (Hamilton), and made their FTs (everyone), this game looks much different.

But sometimes you get the perfect storm of suck.

 

[jibsey]

I like how we responded but we do need to figure out the shooting.

LMAO

Shut up.

 

[boog204]

Stylistically, we just struggle with frenetic defensive teams. We would have lost to Louisville 20 straight times last year and I feel like WVUs style of defense would beat us most games, too.
