LETS GO PIRATES Game Thread

[Abbo71]

This all-access thing is unwatchable (and unlistenable). A few more minutes of this and I’m going to mute and listen to music while the game.

Another example of “just because you can do it doesn’t mean you should.”

Absolutely correct! I'd rather watch commercials than listening to the sideline blabber from Butler's coach. The 5 point swing was huge, but we're still definitely in this game. Their shooting has got to cool off in the second half.

Butler is hot from distance and our lineup is terrible. Willard will not play guys that can score. Too many minutes taken by players that can’t put the ball in the basket.

What’s your lineup of guys who can score?

 

[its haLL baLL]

Vegas expecting the blowout. Second half line is Hall -0.5

 

[silkcitypirate]

Refs are bad ,no rebounding.we must stop cheating/ doubling they get open threes all the time.Sandro HORRIBLE. Offensive always struggles to get open looks

 

[JTSHU]

Yea that was hilarious

 

[cernjSHU]

With the way Butler has been shooting down 12 is not bad. Sandro having a bad day.

I'd like to see Q, Powell, Cale, TT and Gil to start the second half. Willard takes Gill out because Butlers center hit a 3 on him. Butler then expands lead to 14. Gill made a difference out there. He needs to be on the floor.

 

[Abbo71]

have they missed a damn shot yet

They've got to cool of. The pendulum swings both ways.

Our locker room is quiet as anything, we watching a movie lol. However its probably good we watch film so we can view our mistakes.

Didn’t want to single out any particular player with my post. There are two players that eat up a lot of minutes that rarely score the ball and they are not defensive gurus like Ish was.

 

[IronKaz1]

Powell McKnight Cale Thompson and Gill should play

 

[JTSHU]

Scheduling is no longer an excuse. We now get another week off. We know that excuse is BS. How do you coach Sophomores and Juniors to recover if you help or just stop helping and leaving the wing wide open

 

[The Crows Nest]

that Cale play was a HUGE HUGE swing would have been 4 only, game could have been different

Absolutely. And really would have been down to three, as they ruled Q’s shot a 3

 

[JTSHU]

Give Sandro a break. We know his game and he's just not effective right now

Sandro is quite the enigma, some games he does very well

Put Gil in and pressure the ball full court. Take them out of rythym

 

[its haLL baLL]

Play Gill more in the second half. Pick up the defense earlier and leave Gill back there to protect the rim.

This team goes as Powell does. Gotta get him going in the second half.

 

[JTSHU]

Crazy thing is the shooting hasn't been a problem

 

[IronKaz1]

We gotta take down one of MU or VU in our final 2 home games

 

[JTSHU]

Even if we pressure we can't recover

 

[SHULaw05]

Need perimeter defense to take it up a notch and force them to score in the paint.

 

[JTSHU]

MU and VU games may not matter at that point

 

[IronKaz1]

how come we dont have those nice cuts ever

 

[JTSHU]

We just got blocked by the rim twice

 

[Jerry1992]

We are not finishing and thowing up three looking for fouls is not a good decision.

 

[JTSHU]

Powell napping on that 3

 

[Ferreri22]

I cant believe this board kills me over Mamu. He’s been outright pathetic in BE play

 

[its haLL baLL]

Powell’s D is becoming a real problem.

 

[cernjSHU]

Wow this is quite an ugly beginning to the second half..

 

[PosterFormallyKnownAsShuathelete]

Willard is the most uninspiring coach in history, spends most the time stying quiet

 

[NYC Pirate]

Hall down 51-39 under 16 minutes. Blown chances to get this lead down. Powell is frustrated again today and so he loses focus.

Cale is our best player today.

 

[SHUSource]

I’ve never seen a team get so many wide open looks from three.

 

[JTSHU]

Hey our defense that leaves wide open 3's is working!!

 

[its haLL baLL]

I’ve never seen a team get so many wide open looks from three.

Our defense can look really bad when only half the guys rotate on all the switches and traps.

 

[schultz1825]

What on Earth was that lineup? My goodness.

 

[mbraue]

Our defense can look really bad when only half the guys rotate on all the switches and traps.

Romaro is in slow motion.

 

[JTSHU]

Is this a lack of bb IQ or lack of coaching?

 

[IronKaz1]

again who were the guys who knocked off the mcdonald all american Kentucky Cats and MD on the road? same players and came back from deficits

 

[doctorcb12]

Where is that aggressive Powell we saw last time.

 

[NYC Pirate]

Back down to 13. Missed chances to get back in. Front court is awful aside from Cale today.
