‘Tis the season!

Remember the defense? Opposing team’s shooting percentages against Seton Hall during this 4-game losing streak:

Oklahoma State = 56.9%
Rutgers = 53.5%
Villanova = 55.3%
Georgetown = 53.5.%

Hmm. I think I see a trend. 🤔

What do you get when you pair bad defense with bad offense? Rhetorical question lol.

Gtown did not score a point in the last 3:50 of the game last night and at the end of the 1st half we stopped them 7 straight times and did not score once . Our offense is pitiful PERIOD .

Our defense was OK last night. G'town made a number of shots that were much more difficult than shots we wound up missing on our end. Gus was good.

We have not been good at all in playing straight defense, but we’ve done a great job at generating turnovers and that’s kept us alive and in position in many of these games. But then we can’t convert turnovers into offense.

And so many of those offensive rebounds last night went to waste. It’s horrible to watch, so frustrating.

 

[jack 1970]

Our good defense was against bad,overmatched teams.Says more about the competition than good defense on our part.Overall,our defense has been erratic and spotty.

 

[SPK145]

Last night:

1st Half Defense = 0.994 efficiency
2nd Half Defense = 0.874 efficiency

 

[Bud Boomer]

I think our defense could be good if we press more. We have a lot of guys with length and speed. Middleton, in particular, was really giving GTOWN problems in the backcourt.

Might help the offense too.

 

[ivyhillparkk1963]

Hold Georgetown to 61 points and lose. Pretty much sums things up

 

[nutterforthree]

The Defense is poor, the offense is poor, no play design, no improvement. Terrible talent acquisition.

What exactly has our coach been good at this year?

And they still lost. Pitiful.

Sulking, frowning & screaming to name a few. 😵‍💫

The percentage can be misleading.

When you force a team into 16 turnovers that’s good defense and is just as good as a miss in terms calculating percentages.

The 61 points yesterday and 66 points vs Rutgers is more reflective of a good defensive effort.

Agreed, the turnovers have kept it in check…. So has our improved FT defense in those two games (11/22 Georgetown, 13/28 Rutgers). 🤣
