Providence (MSG), Sat., Feb. 11, 12 Noon, FOX

[NCJohnnie]

2 straight years it took half the season for Anderson to realize who one of his best 3 players was.

And to their credit both Wheeler and Storr handled it very well.

Big difference. Boston is a true rival of the Yankees, we were never a true rival of Duke.

The man knocked us out of NCAAs in 90 and 91, got his 1000th against us @ MSG, amongst many other bad memories. We were not a rival, but hated nonetheless. Just my two cents, sue me.

Valid points.

That's too much, but also keep in mind, they missed 14 more shots than we did, so more offensive rebounds to get.

Yeah so they offensive rebounded 13 out of those extra missed 14 shots. Not to shabby

 

[JohnnyFan]

Nice win. We did revert back to our matador defense for the last 7 minutes of the first half. Luckily they snapped out of it in the second half. Love sending Providence home with an MSG loss.

 

[Amaseinyourface]

could not watch game, what adjustments were made defensively to stop PU?

We did go to 2-3 in the second half. Providence never really got going offensively Teagarden.

Welcome to NYC Coach Cooley. I hope you enjoyed your Garden Adventure.

Omar Stanley needs to get away from CMA who clearly doesn't appreciate his play. Kid was impactful early in the first half. He played strong defense and was instrumental in building that early lead. In the second half, once again, his buttocks was stuck to the bench.

 

[MarkRedman]

We played with much more focus and much more "in control" with King playing instead of Curbelo
I hope that Andre addresses whatever issues he's having and I wish him well, but we play much better without him on the court
Posh probably played his best game of the year today and it wasn't by accident

Couldn't agree more JF. For a coach who claims to be all about defense, he doesn't seem to appreciate it much.

Missed game
Rewatching it
Have to say players have talent and deficiencies that we discuss back and forth and it for the most part can be debated.
On like 5 different occasions this year including 2 times in first half Pinzon has not even attempted to run back on D after an offensive mistake.
Hope he leaves

Not sure he got in in the second half. If so just for a minute or two.

I hate to say this because he’s one of the kids on the team, but today showed what one guy does to a locker room and the chemistry of a team. Imagine if we played the entire year like this.

 

[JohnnyFan]

Yes, Pinzon did not play well today. Especially on the defensive end.

 

[guinness77]

I hate to read into things because I’m a middle aged man but is the emoji supposed to mean something?

 

[Fizzy]

Here we go!!!! Late season run. We winning out! 4 more years!!!

 

[mm52]

We only made one FG in the final seven minutes? Tried our best to cough it up as usual

True. But finally made some free throws

 

[rcatalano]

Very rarely does he play well! Don’t expect him to be around next year! Way too many health issues!

Either cursing out the critics of the team or Curbelo would be my guesses.

That’s why I asked because my 46-year-old ass looked at it like it could be a swipe at Curbelo. But, like I said, I don’t do social media really and I could be mis-interpreting it.
