Villanova is attacking and taking guys off the dribble and our team looks afraid to make a mistake and hence why we have so many early turnovers.

Need to start playing hungry and aggressive....enough passing the ball around the perimeter....attack the basket and then look for kickouts.

I am shocked that we look so scared today. By the way if Cubillan thinks he can repeat Wednesday then that would be amazing, cause he does not look good so far and he is trying to carry the team

Timid? How about lazy. No energy.

this game is going to get ugly.

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

Horrific third foul call on Hayward. I really hate Taylor King.

jtsanto · « **Reply #7 on:** January 09, 2010, 01:40:34 PM »

That was dumb he Laz should have been out before getting 3..we are not that deep Buzz.

This could very well be one of the days we feared before the season started. Nova is on a mission and we look terribly outmanned right now.

Just too many unforced turnovers right now.

One guy going one on one and then throwing it up. Shooting 35% won't get it done.

When this team can't hit its outside shots, they really do not have a lot of options. It has taken me just a couple of possessions to figure out why Buzz doesn't play EWill much.

Its hard to be aggressive when Hayward gets fouls for being in the proximity of his matchup

And Fulce.

They are forcing all the turnovers and getting the easy fast break baskets and we are getting none.....as a small quick team we have to get our share of turnovers and easy buckets also......this is ugly.

I hope it's evident now why EWill doesn't get the minutes people say he should.

And Fulce.

Speaking of which, both Fulce and EWill are on the floor together. Talk about lack of frontline strength.

duanewade · « **Reply #17 on:** January 09, 2010, 01:49:05 PM »

That was our worst half of bball this year by far.

Fullodds · « **Reply #18 on:** January 09, 2010, 01:49:25 PM »

We are in no danger of winning this game.

SCdem@MU · « **Reply #19 on:** January 09, 2010, 01:49:37 PM »

Horrid first half. Might be the ugliest I've seen us play all season. I honestly have no clue as to what Buzz Williams is thinking with this game.

I don't know how this is Buzz's fault. They had a number of open looks that they aren't hitting. They don't have a great deal of options.

Hards Alumni · « **Reply #21 on:** January 09, 2010, 01:50:58 PM »

Jay Wright is a great coach.

They are exploiting our weaknesses, and stepping out on our deep looks.

We need to mix something up in the second half... more aggression and work the dribble drive more. Maybe throw in a zone defense for a possession or two.

ecompt · « **Reply #22 on:** January 09, 2010, 01:53:17 PM »

what could Buzz have done differently other than pull Lazar after the second foul? No coach could win at this place against that team with this roster.

What's he supposed to do with Lazar and Jimmy in foul trouble and nobody making any open jumpers? Let's face it, we're a 3 point shooting team and when we don't make them, this is what happens: we score 19 points and get embarassed.

Getting out-coached. Vill has made some great adjustments in a week. Playing at home also helps.
