Ugly first half. Lucky to be still in this one. Have to come out with energy to start the 2nd.

 

[guinness77]

At times, they lack court sense (ie, not aware who's around them or lurking after a defensive carom or when dribbling into the frontcourt).

That’s a lack of hustle. To be high D1 players and not have that sense is alarming.

 

[Bobby123]

A lot of playing time for Dunlap not so much for Scott —
Not sure what Brady is bringing to this game hope that changes in 2 H

 

[Boo Harvey]

Prey should never see the court. He is dreadful.

Yet another bad take

 

[espken]

Blessing to be only down four at halftime.
Ugly stat sheet

 

[Silly Donovan]

I just dont get the substitution patterns today. Scott and Wilcher hardly played

Wilcher has not shown he’s up to high level competition yet but Scott should certainly be in more.

 

[Knight]

Scott with 2 fouls.

 

[Larry Wright]

can’t stand watching Kadary play defense

Had me at play

 

[SLYFOXX1968]

Can anyone figure out how to d up Hausen????

Have him re enter the portal back to Nova . Neptune will have him on the bench .

 

[MugCostanza]

Hausen torched us obviously but I have no clue what the deal is with Coleman Hawkins. Dude had mismatches galore and didn’t even try to do anything with them. $2M in NIL and he looks pretty ordinary out there. Then again, so does Kadary

 

[Boo Harvey]

I think we will win this game. We missed a lot of bunnies and played out of control at times. I think we we settle down and win comfortably.

Ordinary is insulted

 

[Silly Donovan]

If going to win this game Pitino going to have to identify his 5 or 6 best players and play them in 2nd half. No more experimenting or mind games. If he doesn’t do this we will lose this game and our tournament hopes will go up in smoke.

Exactly….. Pitino is too much with the mind games. His team had their best starts with Smith on the court. Brady starting is mind boggling.

 

[SJU61982]

Earlier in the year, Rick said they were spending about 80 percent of practice time working on the defense.

I don't know if that's still the case, but the effects of that are seen when we are on offense.

 

[Andrew]

It's Hayden's 3 point shooting that killed us. Obviously our offense wasn't good either.

 

[sjc88]

The RJ Luis stat line is horrific. We need more from him. I guess he’s not a morning guy. Hopefully he snaps out of it with a big 2nd half.

 

[Knight]

Hawkins has 8 rebounds.

 

[Knight]

We need to play some old BE BB. Make them pay down low with some bumping.

 

[paultzman]

Beating dead horse but having only 5 assists says something about too much one on one stuff and mediocrity of our half court offense. We’ll win this one, but frustrating to not see good ball movement & resulting solid shots.
