Villanova game thread

At least we didn't completely collapse in the final minute.  Hopefully Buzz can get the pressure figured out.  If not, four timeouts remaining that might have to be spent to bail them out.

[MattyWarrior]

Get it across halfcourt.

[Stretchdeltsig]

Cadugan should sit out the second half.  He is killing us.

[4everwarriors]

I would really like to know what has happened to Cadugan.  He can't dribble thru the press.  He plays so slow that the whole game is slowed down.  God, we really need a better point guard, like now, not next year.

Wanting to know what happened to his game implies he once had a game, aina?

[GoldenZebra]

Why hasnt Cadougan figured out the press? Every year it gives him issues.

Not completely, but we handled that last possession about as poorly as you can.

Does she wanna watch the news or somethin'?

Watching HGTV crap she likes...But got to day she's going for a 2 hour ride next week to watch the ND game next week. National MU day!

Here you go, ugly:

MU
fg - 29%.  Jr is 0 for 5, DG is 0 for 2, Otule is 0 for 2, Vander is 1 for 6.
Threes- 1 for 4
FTs - 7 for 10
Turnovers - 9
Fouls - 10  DG, Otule, both Wilsons with two each.

NOVA

shooting 27%

The third foul on Bell was huge for MU, since they were playing poorly.
Stop the lazy over the top passes on the trap.
Cut down turnovers and fouls.
Pick up #4 on Bell early.

Hopefully Buzz reams them like Seton Hall game and they come out to play.

[SWARM!]

Are you really asking? He just doesn't have high D1 level athleticism.

Well at least this year he has some help bring it down. Don't know why but years past Buzz did not use help.

[chapman]

As far as the "why we're tied" number, it's rebounding again.  18-14 edge, with 6 offensive boards and only 2 ORs given up.

What's frustrating is that he is making the exact same mistake every time - absolutely no court awareness. He just stops and waits for the double every single time.

And he never looks to pass to where the double came from - just lobs it cross court

You have to remember, breaking a full court trap is not a 1 person job.  No one is responding properly to the trap, that is most often going to make the guy with the ball look the idiot.

[4everwarriors]

Jr. will look really good at the Y in the Saturday morning league.

[Newsdreams]

We are playing like a d3 team and still tied. Nova is playing so bad they are helping. See us going hard second half and beating these guys, Vander / Davante bring it on!!

No one is filling the space where the double came from.  Someone has to be there to throw the pass.

[4everwarriors]

Just savin' our "A" game for 'Cuse, aina?

[Stretchdeltsig]

Sorry, but, it's time to bench Cadugan and Otule.  They hurt more than help the cause.  If Cadugan plays any slower, we'll score 32 points for the game.

[TedBaxter]

Damn Junior.  Oh wait.

[PGsHeroes32]

My god junior

[4everwarriors]

Nice pass Jr.

I could see this goin' into OT

[Markusquette]

Gardner: "Let's fucking go man!"

[4everwarriors]

Gardner is the answer to a win assuming someone can make the entry pass
