DePaul Game

A college bball coach is the coach and GM of the team. Anything that we lack his Lavin's fault. Lack of depth, his fault. Lack of size, his fault. The coaching itself is obvious but everything wrong with the program falls squarely on his shoulders. Not once has he ever taken blame for anything.

And how! At this point, I don't even want to go to the Marquette game. Or Duke for that matter! Too depressed right now.

I feel the same way about the Duke game. I'd be much better off just sticking with my Fleetwood Mac concert that night but unfortunately I'll suffer the pain of going in and most likely leaving MSG angry that afternoon
 
A lot of anger on this board right now. We can't change the score. They need to put this behind them and get ready for Marquette.
 
Outside of that last play, RySheed played a very good game. That's about the only good thing I can say about St. John's right now.

Wish it wasn't the case, but this group is nothing more than a middle of the pack team. They'll pick up a few nice wins along the way, but not enough depth to really be a contender.

I'll be following you out in the very same mood. Probably get into a fight with a Puke fan! :evil:

Sheed got us to OT. Cant get down on him too much
 
How many days until pitchers and catchers report?
 
Has Lavin ever drawn up a play? And I'm not talking about this season or even with SJU. Has he ever drawn up a play in the half court offense other than iso? Absolutely pathetic job by him today. This isn't Jordans fault. If anything, he is the reason we made it that far in the game.
 
Both teams have had ample opportunities (plural) to win this game.

Neither team deserves to win.

Yeah but we deserved to win just a little less

I had no problem with the play.
Its a standard end of game pick and isolation.
We used a variation with Hardy at the end of the Villanova and Pitt games in 2010 and people thought it was ingenious.
if Jordan was a threat to step back and hit a jumper like Hardy or Kemba...it becomes 10x more effective.

But this is the same team that just beat providence, other than we didn't hit 50+% of our 3s, we hit 16%. I don't know why people are jumping off a cliff. How could you love the team on weds and be so upset today? They played very similar.
 
I believe this loss probably cost us the NCAAs. People keep throwing out the loss to DePaul last year and the 0-5 start and how we rallied like that's supposed to mean something. We have 7 players right now (throwing in Amar).

I really don't know how the lack of depth and also inconsistency from Jordan, branch, and Greene can lead us to a bid. Hopefully we rally. But I don't see it.

It hurts, it hurts for us all, but please try to stop posting ridiculous comments, bashing Jordan, the only player on the floor that wanted the ball late. He made play after play down the stretch on offense and made one bad one at the end, and I blame obkepa there for not seeing Greene in the corner.

We move, on try to beat Marquette. But this was a must win. And well, we didn't win.
 
I'm as frustrated as anyone, but let's let the season play out. No excuses, but clearly hampered by Harrison being less than 100 percent .

Jordan played ok. Turns the ball over way too much for my liking and has no jump shot.
 
Shot 38%
Get out rebounded by 15

Not going to win

Very disappointing performance in a very winnable game.
