(Baha Mar Hoops) #13 Baylor, Thu., Nov. 21, 7p, CBSSN

[nettles]

We gave them too many second chances, and we lost it at the foul line!!

 

[tom in salem]

What an absolute killer. Smith defense wasn't bad there but Zuby has to make one of those, ruined a great game by him up to then.

You mean first half. HE WAS NOT GOOD IN THE 2ND HALF.

 

[MJDinkins]

Didn't deserve to win. Atrocious 2nd half.

We didn't deserve to win because we lost. If we had won then we'd deserve to win. This is a line that never made sense to me.

 

[Shannon]

Two prayer shots does us in, tough to be an SJU fan.

Though season looks very promising, if we practice our foul shooting!

 

[Redmen88]

Richmond should be inbounding to Scott, then Witcher, then Luis

 

[jimredd517]

57% from line. That is the game! CYO teams shoot 75%. Every freaking year they blow game after game on the line. Absolute joke!

 

[Shannon]

Zuby receiving the inbound? How many times can that man get out coached?

what are you talking about?

 

[Silly Donovan]

I’m sick

 

[NCJohnnie]

I just don't get it

Dunlap should have been in for Zuby. Rick should take hit for this loss. As others said, we could easily lose tomorrow and turn what could have been a great trip into a disaster.

 

[ptc666]

Brady should have been in the game. Not sure if it was the angle he was taking on the inbounds but deivon seemed to let the pass go to Zuby instead of grabbing it. Worst way to lose a game.

 

[carmineabbatiello]

Cursed. There is no other explanation.

 

[MugCostanza]

He's not Shaq-bad from the line. He has to come through there. Thing is we had no business being in that position. This team better lock themselves in a gym and shoot free throws as they're gonna kill a possible promising season because they can't shoot freebies.

There's just no point in having him in the game in that situation. He's not a great FT shooter and was having a bad night from the line as is. He's a huge turnover risk if catching it in a bad spot. What does he provide being in the game in that situation

 

[Andrew]

Just a tough loss. Not sure why Zuby gets the ball there but many other mistakes.

 

[MJDinkins]

No NCAA Tournament this year either!! You can’t blow games like this! Pitino shit the bed keeping Smith out for so long and having Zuby in the game at the end. Then they in bound the ball to him!!

Overreaction. But we need to go 2-1 on the trip. Unfortunately, I don't feel good about tomorrow based on the emotional loss of today's game.

 

[logen]

I will tell you right now GUARANTEED, Eijofor was in the wrong place, that play was designed to get the ball to Smith cutting across the middle.
BUT, F’ Pitino and that stupid complex 5 men from out of bounds “let me show you what a genius I am” stupid a$$ unnecessary dopey play. Too much confusion did nothing but confuse his own team and wind up with the wrong man on the line. Also why were not AT LEAST 3 players on the defensive side of the court? Sorry, but Mr. HOF has not impressed this fan one bit in his year+ here.

 

[redmanwest]

Many opportunities lost. A few miracle shots by Baylor. I think they rebound tomorrow. If they don’t will be bad omen for rest of season.

 

[SJU61982]

Just a tough loss. Not sure why Zuby gets the ball there but many other mistakes.

Looked like the pass was intended for Smith. He either misread it, or the pass had too much on it. You could see him turn around just as the ball went inbounds.

 

[NCJohnnie]

You mean first half. HE WAS NOT GOOD IN THE 2ND HALF.

Nonsense - he had 22 points, 10 rebounds and 5 blocks. He should not have been in the game for that last in bounds play but that is a different story.

 

[RedStormRising]

Kadary gassed and cramping?

Kadary has a bad back. I hope he is okay. If he was okay and wasn't playing, that would be a crime.

 

[rcatalano]

Horrrible f——-king loss! Pitino should have pulled Zuby and made sure you had your best foul shooters in the game!
