Seton (on the edge of my seat) Hall thoughts
« on: January 12, 2019, 03:13:39 PM »
1.   Turnovers, turnovers, turnovers.     Dear lord.   Today, MU needed to be stronger with the ball and stronger mentally.    Some really dumb plays and some really careless plays. 
2.   Seton Hall is physically stronger than MU.   And more physical.   And always going for the poke away.   
3.   Congratulations to Sam on 1000 points.
4.   I will say it again.... Theo John is a bad man.   
5.  Sacar actually showed his worth today.    Solid offensively, solid on a Powell. 
6.   0 made 3's in the second half.    I would have taken any bet in the world that would have predicted that number. 
7.   MU was strong defensively.   
8.   Seton Hall goes zone for the first time all day as a change up and Sacar and Joey team up on a great improvisational play.   
9.   Free throws matta (?)   Make a good percentage, but miss the ones that give Seton Hall the chance to win or force overtime.
10.  Wojo chose to foul up 3.    Cooley didn't.    A mark in the column for fouling up 3.   
11.   Ugly, brutal win.   Beats the hell out of a brutal, ugly loss.     Great work.    Next!

wasn’t that No. 9?

Honestly missed it (buries my head in shame). But it's worth being on there twice.

The Hall is tough and physical, but we came through. Big win, and great takes Tower especially #1.

I’m not sure if the foul at the end was planned. If it was I think it may have happened earlier.

Theo is the best defensive 5 we have had in a long time. His presence alone helps us out a LOT.

TOs. Ug. Seemed like 90% of them were unforced

13. Let's hope Morrow's injury isn't serious.

Love Theo so, so much. Would probably hate him if he was on any other team though.

That Cale dude was doing his best Dougie McFlopper impression. Glad Theo pretty much told him to sit down.

These guys are going to be tough on the road.  Nice win.
My additions:
12.  Buy Jamal Cain some stick-em
13.  Howard blocked about 5 times?  Did someone crack the magic code?
14.  Excellent D by Sacar
15.  Don't know why we didn't see Bailey because Cain was horrible

12. FTs Matter.

Sigh.

For the bajillionth time. FTsNoMatta is short for "Team FT% matters very little in terms of winning a basketball game."

Take this game for example. We shot 83% from the line which is above our average of 75%. If we shot our average of 75% we would have made two less FTs and still won the game.

What mattered a helluva lot more was that we got to the line 24 times versus 9 for them.

I do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.

Some on here have suggested that Willard can't coach and that Seton Hall would be bad this season.  Care to reassess?

Props to the Pirates. After loosing their senior class last season to come back and be so competitive is even surprising the Pirate fan base here in Jersey.

Love seeing us be able to win in a slugfest, and when Markus isn't in Superman mode.  Did what we had to do, holding serve at home against a lesser opponent. 

Big props to Theo John today.  Bid difference-maker out there once again.

That felt like a true big east basketball game! Glad we came out on the right side of it.

HOWEVER, The refs gave us a gift by now calling (howard?) for a foul on the 3 point shot.

0 for 9 from three in second half.
Shot 30% overall in second half.
SHU had 19 fouls, MU had 12.  SHU was 6 for 9 and MU was 20-24 from the line.  16 point differential.
20 turnovers and the 4 on Joe C. and 3 on Cain were well, not good.
Still win, thats two games in a row, could have gone the other direction.

Hope Morrow heals up soon.

We got a huge gift when the ref didn't call a foul on Markus on the Seton three point attempt near the end.  Forgot what Seton player it was.  Replay showed Markus hit him on the forearm.  I think we got some home cooking today from the Refs.  Won't get that on the road.

All around  the Big East, teams, coaches, and fans are looking  at Theo and saying 'bleep.  That bleeping  bleeper  is only a bleeping sophomore and is only bleeping going to bleeping stronger and bleeping meaner around the bleeping  basket.  Bleepity bleep bleep.'

We gave up a lot of offensive rebounds today.  Noticeable because we have been so good at limiting those this year. 

I would love to see us play well for large percentages of the game as the season wears on.

Cain and Chartouny were really bad today, I thought.  John and Anim were very good.  Everyone else somewhere in between.

If Sam gets it going like last year we are going to be awfully good.  He and Joey missed many high percentage 3s today.  SHU reminded me a bit of SJU.  Very athletic, made it very hard on Markus.
