Seton Hall@ SJU Game Thread

[HallB]

The foul differential is 17-7 right now. The refs kept them in the game in the first half and now shu is afraid to play defense.

 

[shupat08]

This game will go down to the wire. Bet on it.

Refs are hamstringing us on D. Not calling any fouls on them.

And StJ is also fired up. We seem content with being in the lead.

 

[Bobbie Solo]

Terrible officiating and terrible shot selection caused this.

 

[williaza01]

Good Job Mussini

 

[shupat08]

Should have been an intentional foul on Mussini as KC was passing to a man on a fast break.

 

[williaza01]

Good job Mussini..part 2

 

[shupat08]

We just made Mussini look like a scrub on about 3-4 possessions in a row.

 

[HallB]

Ok now finally getting some calls. Legit calls by the way.

 

[bigraym]

Good TO to gain composure and great play off the TO, Willard!

 

[NYC Pirate]

Back up by 12 under 16 minutes. We are responding. Desi is the added piece
that's making a difference.

Keep the focus in the next 5 minutes.

Should have been an intentional foul on Mussini as KC was passing to a man on a fast break.

Pretty sure NCAA doesn't have a clear path foul or an intentional foul, just flagrant 1 and 2

 

[HallBall10]

does freedom of movement apply to IW?Guys have their hands and bodies all over him when he's dribbling.

 

[shupat08]

Whitehead rules.... They are the opposite of Jordan rules.

 

[williaza01]

#14 pushed IW and gets a foul called against Delgado. Very frustrating

 

[williaza01]

St Johns sucks. Nothing can be learned from this game. Just win and get out of there

 

[NYC Pirate]

Hall up 8 under 12 minutes.

The frontcourt aside from Desi are not scoring and are getting rejected
too many times. IW has to slow the pace because we are too fast on offense
right now.

SHU MUST put their feet on SJU necks right now!!

 

[bigraym]

Agreed, ESPN box has Yakwe with 3 blocks and Johnnies with 6 total, seems like more than that

 

[bigraym]

Great box out by Anthony!

 

[williaza01]

This game has been orchestrated for St Johns to be close from the tip.

 

[Shuathelete]

Anthony just fouled out but just take him home. WOW. Posterized.

 

[bigraym]

orchestrated by who? Mullin?

 

[chickenbox]

Holy crap that was an amazing dunk

 

[williaza01]

orchestrated by who? Mullin?

You can't be serious can you?

 

[bigraym]

Spare me

 

[williaza01]

Spare me

OK

 

[Shuathelete]

we are going to lose this game.

 

[chickenbox]

Another game we win at the line?

 

[williaza01]

There you go

 

[shupat08]

Complete bullshit. We get mugged 3-4 times before a foul MIGHT be called.

StJ gets breathed on and it's a foul.

 

[williaza01]

**** this game

 

[shupat08]

We are going to lose this game.

 

[Jerry1992]

Tournament hopes might be going down drain. Let them hang around too long. Foul trouble killing us.

 

[williaza01]

For as much as this has been an ambush game. If IW wants the NBA and Willard wants to earn everything and the team wants to Dance its all on them right now

 

[NYC Pirate]

OK lead is now 1. So its time to step up.

 

[pirated]

Willard getting out coached and players getting outhustled....

 

[Bobbie Solo]

These fouls are completely absurd

 

[chickenbox]

IW has had two blocks and a steal without picking up fourth foul.

Looks like we're going to have to play like Golden State down the stretch with Nzei/Ish as our five. Will be a challenge with these shot blockers

 

[williaza01]

Willard getting out coached and players getting outhustled....

Great post. Thanks.

 

[SHUSource]

This game has been orchestrated for St Johns to be close from the tip.

Right, because the league doesn't want Seton Hall to make the NCAAs...

Just ridiculous. We rack up fouls because we play very aggressive defense (which is fine, but that goes with the territory). That's it. End of story.

 

[chickenbox]

Delgado's fifth was completely legit. Bad bad decision. Guy was already pushed to baseline
