I don't understand the defense we are playing. it is some sort of matchup zone on the perimeter and all it's doing is confusing everyone. Don't know why we don't play tight man D.
This defense sucks.. willard needs to stop messing around.. it doesnt match our team. we arent long we dont have a long pesky macura at the top of the zone.
If willard is a good xs and os coach he will realize that putting mj, mc, or eventually jt at the top of a 1-3-1 defense is a complete joke.
That zone was the worst I've seen out of an SHU team in a long time. We stopped it later on in the half, hopefully we dead it for the remainder of this game.
This is a big chance for Nzei and Singh to show they have some potential to grow into real BE players. Also, Eron Gordon will have extra chances, as without Sanogo, SHU will use alot of 3 guard strategies.
If any of these 3 players can show well in the next 60 minutes of this tournament, it is a good tournament for SHU even with the losses.

At least Nzei getting valuable minutes , I think he is close to a double double...he and Desi giving us the lead. I hope Kadeen gets more involved in the 2nd half, we need him to take the game to Q.
Anthony gives up a easy foul and 2 point with 40 seconds left. Gives them additional confidence which they don't need.
AND NO MORE OPEN 3s!!!

Up 7 at the half and it feels like we are down 7.
- Jones not playing well again and Willard has been using KC more at the point
- Khadeen looking tired already. Was one of my biggest concerns coming into the year - asking him to handle the ball, create for others and be the leading scorer. Already looking like he doesn't have his legs under him.
- Don't like the Zone at all but Willard may be doing it to give Khadeen a bit of a breather
- Nzei has stepped up to the plate big time! Off to a so-so at best start to the season, he's answered the call tonight with Ish out and has been a beast with 10 pts and 8 boards
- Desi not looking comfortable from 3 but is unstoppable attacking the hoop
- Angel is truly an enigma. He looks like a great playerfor a few minutes then looks lost. Hoped for more consistency now as an experienced Junior
- Really hope Willard rips into them at Halftime and they come out with energy in the 2nd half. Don't let Quinipiac hang around

I know you mean Derrick Gordon and you are right. Our veterans don't look good at all. Khadeen, Angel and Desi are suppossed to be our leaders and they just don't seem to have the fire they usually do. The body language and facial expressions are telling.
We need a pass first pg like Jones, but the pg also has to be an offensive threat. The pg has to be able to score in the low double digits, on average.
Without the pg being an offensive threat, our offense is playing 4 against 5. The double down on Angel will often come from the defender of our pg. Therefore, our pg must be able to hit open shots consistently, to relax the double teaming of Angel.

We had a chance to put them away for good after that flagrant foul and we blew it. This is maddening.
