We could've shot worse from the line and that still isn't the issue with this team.

We couldn't get stops tonight and that was the main reason the game was close.

You can make all the stops you want, still have to put the ball in the hoop.

That was the least important FT miss of the night. At that point in the game PCs last shot was going to be a 3. Missing actually took a few tenths off the clock.

And if only Dan Hurley was a good coach..how could Providence put up 98 on UCONN?  They also beat St John's and Creighton too decent teams.

2 outta 3 ain't bad

Quote from: Elonsmusk on January 19, 2026, 09:02:18 PMYep..we got outscored by 10 at the FT line. That no "matta." Numerous missed front ends of 1 and 1.  Did you know if you make the front end you get another FT and thus increase FT attempts?  And I've been told FT attempts "matta."

Quote from: panda on January 19, 2026, 08:38:24 PMThe abysmal defense is about 100 times more the reason for the game being close than free throws smh
