Bucknell game

We are so lucky to only be down 3. That was 20 minutes of terrible basketball

Save your post. You will have many additional opportunities to cut and paste it at halftime of many other games this season. You can just change the amount we are down at the half. This team plays terrible basketball by nature. They started to figure it out at the end of the half. Go with your strength. Sampson and Sanchez down low, and only shoot wide open jumpers from 15 feet and in. Dom, Branch and Greene roaming at the 3 point line. Too easy to defend that. Play 3 feet off them to prevent penetration, and pack it in down low. If they want to shoot the 3, even better. The baskeball IQ is not just low, but contagious. Sanchez shooting 3's? Branch plays the position requiring a lot of smarts, and doesn't hold for one? This team better start listening to their coach.
 
Being outshot 54-44% we are lucky to be down only 3. Tighten up the D and attack the rim on offense. For a team last in the NCAA in 3s why are we taking so many jump shots and they're not even good looks
 
this halftime show is terrible. Not once did they say the score of the games. Is Austin Croshere really the best Fox Sports can do?
 
it is a game that demonstrates the value of court sense of sheer athleticism...at least so far.
Really both teams are making the point, even SJU, but not as often. Lavin can keep preaching that
he wants fewer three point attempts and more of an inside game but there is some amnesia between the locker room and the three point line.

The team finally took Lavin's advice. They were getting sucked in by the open looks.

They have to stay persistent and follow Lavin's orders. It was paying off at the end of the half.
 
I really don't understand why posters on here are saying it was 20 minutes of horrible basketball. If we didn't pick up our game after the first five minutes we'd be down by 15. It's not luck we are down 3, our guys started putting it inside towards the end of the half and we got some buckets to close the gap. I expect us to do it more in the second half and get this win.

Because we are a terribly coached team.
 
Bucknell is doing nothing special to take Harrison out of this game. He is doing it to himself by rushing his shots
