Marquette (MSG), Sat., Jan. 20, 12 Noon, FOX

Talk about the final possession all you want, this game was lost on the two possessions previous. Down by ONE, we attempted 3 different 3 pointers without ever attacking and putting pressure on the defense.

When you’re inbounding under your basket with 4 seconds left, getting a good look is a win. It just didn’t drop. But the two previous possessions are what haunt me from this one
 
Would have thought RP would have a better play than Jenkins shooting a 3 ? Soriano taking a dribble getting ball upcourt wasted a second .

5 th place in BE gets us into Tourney . Need to beat Butler at Butler , sweep Hoyas and DePaul and Nova at Home or X on the road . Beating PC at home is tough .

Rick needs to search everywhere for a shooter next season . Preferably from the portal that can score inside and out .
 
Yeah that last shot is best you could hope for with 5 seconds left the killer was Ledlum taking a three drive to the basket your down 1 point ughh I’m getting tired of all these close losses we need to get at least on of those games and we’d be in great shape.

Or , Creighton at home .
 
That’s what you’re complaining about? Jenkins’ shot at the end is about the best we could have hoped for
A contested three with 1.5 seconds left on the clock? Are you high?
We were down one with 4.3 seconds left, which is an eternity. Have five ballhandlers/shooters on the court, get the ball to any one of them, and drive it! Get fouled! Anything but what they did.
 
Shaka called a timeout when he saw Soriano on the floor. He had his team funnel the inbounds to Soriano and play off Jenkins.

Inbounds to Soriano and three by Jenkins gives you about an 80% chance of victory as the defensive team up by 1.
