Xavier game

[gregbodkin]

We just got spanked ,

 

[MJDinkins]

We've seen a whole lot of "me first" ghetto ball played in this game. It would be nice to see a team game played for once.

"Ghetto" ball?

Not for nothing, how does Pointer get any run in this game over anyone? For all this supposed depth we have, he has done NOTHING to warrant the PT today and then that STUPID, pointless reach in 25 feet from the basket will end it.

no idea. 0 pts 1 rebound

What is hard hearing game after game is how much talent we have! Perhaps , .we do not have as much as we think we have

Stay classy

 

[LetLooieCoach]

Yes, ghetto ball.

32% from the field - there is the game

if we started Jordan in 2nd half and allowed him to create offense off his drives, we win...

 

[Jack Williams]

Get hooper in, maybe he can nail some threes maybe we pull this off

 

[doodyny33]

Still waiting for SJU to actually win a game against a good team

Disappointing start to Big East play. Can't say I'm surprised though.

If Lavin makes this team "something special" as he promises by February, he'll be coach of the century. They flat out can't shoot and how they'll learn in four weeks is beyond me.

I wouldn't go that far, but it's not a stretch to say the run might've not happened

Agree.

disagree..think we are a talented team...more talented than Xavier...we didn't use our talent properly today

The game was lost at the start of the half and Samspon not passing on the break for an easy 2 was the final nail

 

[MJDinkins]

I'd like for us to have one of those small forward types who can shoot and create his own shot.

I like Pointer, but you can't count on him game to game. He's like a satchel of Halloween candy.... A mixed bag.

Exactly. Just because a kid is an athlete doesn't mean he's a good basketball player.

Our team never plays smart.

 

[redmanwest]

Rotation should be shortened by GG only playing when we need to give fouls, Balimou and Hopper never playing, unless a blow out. Brach need s minutes and Greene less.

 

[capmaker]

Someone asked where was Branch today?

Branch was keeping Felix company on the bench.

 

[MJDinkins]

Yes, ghetto ball.

Your definition of "ghetto ball?"
