Playing Too Timid....

[nyg]

The last two possessions, Buycks running down clock at top of key and bombing, then Acker driving and throw-up was terrible.  

Without Hayward, the team is really small and has no options.

Didn't realize MU was outscored 32 to 6 in the paint against GT and we won.  Thats unreal.  But when you live or die with the threes, it works sometimes.  Not today so far.

I see a second half run, Buzz has a plan. I am not sure what it is but he has one

The only second half run/plan I see from Buzz is a run to the toilet!!

[PuertoRicanNightmare]

Why did we schedule this game?

[Ellenson Guerrero]

So if we are being outcoached, what are scoopers suggestions. Get E Will on the perimeter to create? Get Mbao in for the 1 3 1 again? I mean lets be honest, Buzz is trying to put out a fire with a leaky bucket.

[NCMUFan]

Buzz needs to incorporate Fulce and Williams in the offense.  If not, why not just play with three players on the court?  They should of expected the day when Jimmy and Lazar would be in foul trouble together.  If Buzz doesn't figure something out, this could be as ugly as the Louisville lost 4 years ago.

[nyg]

This is the first game in awhile that Hayward has been in foul trouble/non factor and it shows.

Is this what it will be like next year, cause I don't see anyone on bench or SF/PF commitments enroute.

Easy enough... lets have guys with no perimeter game and no post up ability the ball. That will be successful.

Cmon, their only value is on the defensive end, rebounding and put back buckets. No matter what Buzz does that won't change

[GGGG]

Buzz needs to incorporate Fulce and Williams in the offense.  

How?  I see no offensive skills at this point by either one of them.  They both look like the 65yo guy that sometimes plays basketball with us...game is way too fast for them.

[Mobot]

Fulce is on fire!

[Ellenson Guerrero]

Joseph Fulce making me eat my words haha

[muwarrior87]

If they could get a stop on the defensive end I'd say give it to Joe for the catch and shoot.  Can't get any defensive stops though. Really frustrating.

[Hards Alumni]

we can't make a shot, we can't stop a shot.  We are not playing our game.

This is a clinic.

[Spaniel with a Short Tail]

That kind of IS our game! 

[willie warrior]

I see a second half run, Buzz has a plan. I am not sure what it is but he has one

We are now down 20 with 15 minutes left--how soon will the plan be unveiled?

[Hards Alumni]

That kind of IS our game! 

not really, though I do understand the joke.

They are stepping out on our deep shots, and we have shot 9 three's all game... Hayward has 2 points and 2 rebounds.  We are so far off our game.

[NCMUFan]

The announcers are talking with the football coach.

[lurch91]

At 12:34 in the second, Nova finally missed a shot.  Think that was the first miss in the second half.

Nova is shooting the lights out.

hayward needs to come out of his coma!

When a team is up 22 with 15 to play, at least they have something to talk about.

[Lighthouse 84]

How is all the offense not being run through Fulce?

[77ncaachamps]

I sense the Yarou foul on DJO might have lit a fire...

I hope I'm right.

[21Jumpstreet]

Nice little push, now we just have to close out on the ball.  Too many uncontested shots.  A step slow today.

[nyg]

Down to five with six to go.  7 threes made.  Live/die.  

[77ncaachamps]

I do think the Yarou foul was the punch in the gut they needed.

Too bad it was another 3 pt loss.

Played like heck in the last 15 minutes...but I'm sure Buzz will cover the other 25 minutes.
