Game Thread: Pirates vs. Monmouth

[MTOleBlue]

EHE has dropped multiple passes this game. Just catch the ball man

 

[Piratz]

Puts Dawes in lead shrinks. He’s lost defensively.

 

[MTOleBlue]

Lead cut from 15 to 10 with these seniors back in the game! Now who could have seen this coming? Certainly not the coaches... but all of us here could have predicted it...

 

[Gohall129]

Honestly seemed like a charge and not a block. But hopefully that gets Dawes going

 

[Jerry1992]

Dawes coming in at 4:25 and it's 32-17. Let's see how much of the lead evaporates.

First two possessions: Monmouth scores and Hall turns it over.

Minus 4

If only the coach would start the 2nd half with the guys that played smartly and showed some energy in the first half. But he’ll go with his “Senior leaders”.

 

[DrummerJerry]

At the game. Watching Sha near constantly screaming at the players is bothering me.

 

[HallGuy23]

Starters come back in, and we look lost again on offense. Classic

Because they don’t care. They’re all playing for themselves, trying to show off their skill for whatever minimal hope they have at getting to a “professional” league next year.

And our leader Halldan1 wants KR, DD, DAW to come back AGAIN next year!

Dawes shouldn’t play a second in the 2nd half. Richmond, Brown, Sanders and Coleman should easily cover the minutes

 

[Hall Is Life]

Honestly seemed like a charge and not a block. But hopefully that gets Dawes going

The crowd wasn’t even excited for him. But hey, I’ll take 3 points. Maybe it gets him going.

 

[CaptBob]

Did I miss something, what's up with Tubek??

 

[Gohall129]

Did I miss something, what's up with Tubek??

Injured after the Baylor game

Yup. Not a good look and doesn’t seem too effective. Getting old.

 

[CaptBob]

Please, not another Brandon Weston---

 

[CaptBob]

Monmouth 6/11 from 3 at 54.5% watch out-- only 37.5 % fg

 

[catholicman]

EHE has dropped multiple passes this game. Just catch the ball man

I wonder if this is because of his concussion.

 

[Powerful Pirates]

Team is 2/7 from 3 but Dawes hasn’t taken any!!!

 

[MTOleBlue]

I wonder if this is because of his concussion.

That's what I'm thinking it could be. If that's the case then maybe he shouldn't be playing?

 

[SHUSA]

dawes stinks out loud. the more he does the worse he is and hes not smart enough to realize.

 

[MTOleBlue]

Dylan putting in some good effort to start this half.

 

[HallGuy23]

Dawes a brick, Wusu the offensive rebound and his follow shot goes 10 feet beyond the rim. Good lord

 

[CaptBob]

now there's the Dawes we all know

 

[MTOleBlue]

I'm sorry, did they say Dawes has gone 2-36??? That's 5.5%

 

[SHUSA]

Dawes a brick, Wusu the offensive rebound and his follow shot goes 10 feet beyond the rim. Good lord

and misses both free throws. these two guys stink.

 

[CaptBob]

How the hell did Richmond make that shot???

 

[Gohall129]

I'm sorry, did they say Dawes has gone 2-36??? That's 5.5%

Yup. 2 for his last 36

 

[Jerry1992]

I'm sorry, did they say Dawes has gone 2-36??? That's 5.5%

Yes. That right? If so, wow.

 

[PMB Pirate]

I am a big K Rich fan but I wish he would play with this speed and urgency all the time.

 

[MTOleBlue]

Yes. That right? If so, wow.

Honestly, I'm not surprised by that.

 

[HallGuy23]

and misses both free throws. these two guys stink.

**BuT WuSu Is a gLuE gUY**

 

[Jerry1992]

Lol. Knew it was bad but did not know that bad. Hope he gets something to drop tonight.

 

[stipe65]

dawes stinks out loud. the more he does the worse he is and hes not smart enough to realize.

What was that last play. Fakes a shot, drives and fires a bullet pass for a turnover.

.

 

[CaptBob]

Dawes clank---

 

[MTOleBlue]

The only 2 starters who have been playing well are Richmond and Bediako (minus his 4 fouls)... we need those bench players to be the ones on the court.

 

[Gritty5837]

Maybe take some mid range shots / attack the basket when you’re 2-36 from three? There are other ways to get your confidence back

 

[SHUSA]

that last play is dawes in nutshell. we've had a lot of dumb players, a lot of bad players, a lot of players that make me want to rip my eyes out and he is #1 by a wide margin.

 

[NYC Pirate]

I think too much hard criticism on Dawes. He is a college player and not a pro. Represents SHU too. My point is I think we should be more pleased with how the backups have played. That's the future of the program. So maybe we can back off a bit on Dawes. All the starters are what they are and lots of blame to go around.

 

[PMB Pirate]

A. Dawes will make a few 3 pointers this half, he HAS to. Keep shooting if wide open.

players get paid now.

That is true. But, there can absolutely be criticism on the coach for playing him without any adjustment when he is playing the way he is.
