Richmond should have never left Seton Hall, and we never should have allowed him to leave. A complete screw-up by both parties.

Correct. Kadary controlled the last 4 minutes of that game. Points, assists, rebounds and steals.
Seen that before…
BTW watched the whole game and he could have had 15 assists if St Johns could shoot/make layups/ not fumble the ball away.
Completely agree with these observations. SJ players booted two or three beautiful feeds from Richmond in the first four minutes of the game. Could easily have been up 10/12-0. The TOs plus abysmal 3 point shooting kept Butler in the game.
Pitino plays a different system than Holloway. He wants to play faster. KR plays at a pace that Holloway prefers. And he had his most consistent season to date with SHU.
And, OMG, what has the SJ coaching staff done with Richmond’s shooting form. The stroke from 3 does not look smooth at all but the form from the foul line is atrocious. He shot 81% last year.
Zuby was at Kansas so I’m sure he was a highly touted recruit. From how he looked last year off the bat compared to this year it’s absolutely wild. We’ve seen plenty of top 50 kids look like disasters.
It’s easily the biggest issue for them and wasn’t present earlier in the year based on the box scores. Even against other high majors they shot well. I think it’s mental at this point.
St. John’s fouls a ton. They had a friendly crew today reffing their game but when they get a ref like Breeding doing their games watch out.
Breeding did the December 20th St. John’s/Providence game, which they won on the road
Kadary played great down the stretch but I get the sense Pitino is starting to prefer Deivon, who is much more in the mold of his past stars. The downhill, do-it-all machines like Don Mitchell, Peyton Siva, Russdiculous, etc. Richmond is a different type of player, and he doesn’t really fit with Deivon, Luis and Zuby because he can’t create spacing (because he can’t shoot).
