I'm stuck at work and just tuned in. Both teams missing shots or is the defense good? Heard Raft say we are making the hustle plays...

How is the crowd?
 
We can't buy a basket. Have had decent looks. Crowd looks good.
 
Has 10+ loss written all over it. They can't play this bad for long. Our shots are really not even close. This will be a tough night and day on this board.
 
Slow start. No sense of urgency or passion. Terrible or better stated non-existent offensive game plan. 2-20 FGs.

In short, more of the same.

Still time to wake up and turn things around. But it's got to start now.

That goes for this game as well as the season!
 
Need to stop pump faking and hesitating. They close out so fast, the hesitation turns every open shot into a contested one.

Got a text from a friend who is very disappointed in the crowd. Looks like the students showed up but not much else.
 
3-22 from the field to start at home. ouch. they gotta start falling soon. right?
 
Lousy half court offense, poor defense against the 3, nutty sub patterns by Willard. Carrington got eaten alive on D early. Plenty of time, but they are off to a poor start.
 
Down 17-10 under 4 minutes. One of the worst offensive halves in a very long time

Too much individual play
 
We're shooting 14.8% from the floor. That is not good, in case you were wondering.
 
just under 4 minutes left in first half and shooting ~ 15% FG, 40% FT and 0% (0 for 8) from 3. Can't remember a slower start. More alarming is that only down 7. "So you saying there's a chance"
 
What an abysmal half of basketball. Butler is playing great defense and our half court offense has been horrendous. Pretty friggin' ugly.
 
These refs are all over the place. Calling any contact out on the perimeter but nothing at the rim. Really bad tonight.

Down 6 at half is the goal here. Don't let this get to 15 before half Butler is impossible to come back from with a big lead the way they play defense
 
Ref's stink. Calling no fouls vs Butler on our drives toward the hoop. Calling it different on the other end. Big East office must of given the memo to the ref's to call everything for #11 Butler.
