NOVA Game Thread

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

That technical was unexecusable

[Spaniel with a Short Tail]

This officiating blows. Player out of bounds on earlier save cost us 5. Technical foul on missed timeout cost us 5. This would be a 1 point game, not 11.

Agreed.

[ecompt]

Lol way to go Buzz... give em 5 before the half... good job coach

I love Buzz, but taking a T because the players he recruited stunk was incredibly stupid. Ballgame over.

[geagles10]

why the T buzz?  That's just as bad as a dumb play by jamil or anyone else?  He needs to take some heat for that.

[Boozemon Barro]

Jamil may want to think about defending the guy who has been making threes all game. Dude must have smoked an ounce of weed before today's game. 11 seems like an insurmountable lead at this point.

[4th and State]

We're really good at beating ourselves this year.  Buzz should know better than getting T there.

[WellsstreetWanderer]

It's not officiating that is costing us this game

[marquette09]

Buzz was right next to the guy, calling the time out.  Wtf?

[GooooMarquette]

Between missed point blank shots, missed ft's and actual turnovers, Derrick has accounted for 5 empty possessions by himself.  yet he only technically turned it over once.

Plus 6 rebounds.

Derrick has made some bad plays, but he hardly stands out in that respect.

[mileskishnish72]

The lead was 11 with a few minutes to go- I said to myself if we get it down to 5 or 6 that wouldn't be too bad. We cut it to 6, Buzz comes barreling onto the court, gets T'd up, then another uncontested 3, and it's back to 11. Mail it in, boys, if you're not going to play harder than this. And Buzz, stay off the GD court!!

[Nevada233]

The Refs are beyond horrible and im here at the game.

[Newsdreams]

No, it was just a pathetic effort by Derrick. He had all day to just grab the ball.

Derrick would not have saved that ball he would have been out like the Nova player. Should have been MU ball.

[forgetful]

Pretty sure the last of our concerns are the officials.... we are playing unnatural carnal knowledgeing terrible

We are playing bad, but the officials cost us at least 7.

2 on the save from a player out of bounds.
2 on the technical when Buzz was clearly in front of the ref calling timeout and Jake was clearly on the ground calling timeout.
3 for the failure to grant the timeout so we would have the last possession.

Those are all assuming we didn't score on any of our possessions.  At least 20% of their points right now stem from poor calls by officials.

[muhoops1]

Agreed.  Towel has officially been thrown by Buzz "Curly Neal".  That was a Stooge move and unbelievable foreshadowing by Mick Cronin.

Perhaps we'll get new uni's for the NIT!

[BenCat12]

What good is a rebound if you can't score when you get the ball?   Just curious

[MattyWarrior]

How overrated is Jamil,we have been waiting for years for him to show up and he constantly disappoints. I
really have a hard time watching them this year, all the subs, screw that crap!

[Nevada233]

Marquette Seriously needs a Point Guard. This Sh!t is harder to watch in person than
It is on T.V.

You're a douche.

Love the official watching Jake call TO for 2-3 seconds and then casually calling him out of bounds.  We are playing like ass but this league has some terrible crews.

[AirPunches]

That was a cheap call and should have been given a timeout. It really sucks that it turned out to bite MU like it did. Hopefully the players bail out buzz and play hard in the second half.

He has 6 rebounds!  How dare you!!!!

[Boozemon Barro]

BS. Derrick could have easily got that ball. Otule also got out worked for the loose ball one the Nova player saved it. Jake Thomas tried to shoot a contested layup which was definitely a LOL moment. Just an all around dumpster fire for Buzz's homeboys.

[downtown85]

50/50 balls. Nova is out hustling  the Warriors. That's the game so far.

[Milkshakes]

This mess is on Buzz. I love the guy but he is doing a terrible job today. Bad lineups. No emotion. STJ trailing on the press.  He has been a complete non factor then he gets T'ed up when they are making a run. Bad Buzz today.

[forgetful]

Shouldn't have been called.  He was out on the court thinking they had a timeout and were getting the ball.  

[MattyWarrior]

The refs look bad, but that's an excuse at this point of the game.
