SHU At DePaul Game Thread

[NYC Pirate]

We shot 51.9% with 10 assists on 14 FG. But we allowed DePaul to shoot nearly as well with far too many layups.

Need to get after it more defensively. Cannot just coast.

+1 Our stat line is good. We had 3 key turnovers when we were increasing the lead. The defensive
intensity is good. Game changed when Gordon got his 2nd foul.

They have to seize the moment here.

 

[Jerry1992]

Desi appeared ok but did not come back in. Hopefully he is on court when second half starts.

 

[bigraym]

Desi a big question mark?

 

[Piratz]

Got to develop the "killer instinct" stop on the throat of an opponent when down!

Definitely. Especially against teams below us in the standings.

 

[Jerry1992]

Desi looks fine. Now let's win this.

 

[bigraym]

Come on Defense

 

[bigraym]

They are getting to close to the hoop, where's Ish?

 

[bigraym]

Unfortunately guys, this is going to go till the final whistle, another close one

 

[Jerry1992]

DePaul not going away, just keep lead and hang on for win.

 

[NYC Pirate]

51-45 SHU under 15 minutes.

DePaul playing their A game of course. The ball does bounce their way when we play them in
Chicago.

 

[Harty9]

Ish coming thru now

 

[bigraym]

They are 5-11 from 3, we are 7-18, we are settling for the 3...take it to the hole, draw the foul

 

[Piratz]

It's a wide open offensive game. Both teams at 50%+.

 

[Vegas pj]

Does Dickie Simpkins ever shut up?

 

[bigraym]

Last couple games our signature defense has disappeared, why?

 

[SHUHoopsFan]

We are not creating turnovers. That is why DePaul is still in this game.

 

[pirated]

Is Delgado going to decide to play today?

 

[The SHUttle]

Willard dropping the F bomb right in the camera's FACE!

 

[Vegas pj]

KW uncensored to the camera man as they go to break! Nice one KW!

 

[NYC Pirate]

52-45 under 12 minutes.

They have to close the door on DePaul. Get quality shots. Looks like
IW and Carrington will have to carry the load the rest of the way.

 

[lwyrup]

Love seeing Willard showing some passion. Delgado playing like he did at the very beginning of the season (not good).

 

[HALL28]

Willard not taking any sh*t today! I like it.

 

[seton1996]

Willard dropping the F bomb right in the camera's FACE!

Oops, clear as day

 

[pirated]

KW uncensored to the camera man as they go to break! Nice one KW!

kW should be pissed the way we're playing...

 

[Jerry1992]

Thought Angel would be player of game. Guess not. Just hoping they win.

 

[Vegas pj]

FS apologizing for KW. Joining the club?

 

[bigraym]

No let's hope it's not serious

 

[pirated]

Simpsons should get kicked out

 

[Vegas pj]

Simpkins is an idiot - "possibly warrants a flagrant foul".

 

[NYC Pirate]

58-52 SHU under 10 minutes. A very crazy minute in Chicago. IW playing
out of his mind. SHU can't get a stop. Simpson ejected for DePaul for pushing
Carrington into the 5th row.

 

[Jerry1992]

He is gone. Deserved. Great way to go out on senior day.

 

[Piratz]

Delgado's in a fog offensively.

 

[NYC Pirate]

This game really needs to end soon. LOL

60-52 SHU Pirates going down all over the place.

Very proud of our guys today.

 

[Jerry1992]

This game is taking a toll physically. Need the 4 days of rest.

 

[bigraym]

13 point lead! Now defense!

 

[Piratz]

Assertive 10-run, up by 13. Nice.

 

[NYC Pirate]

65-52 SHU under 8 minutes. Crush them!

 

[HALL85]

This game is taking a toll physically. Need the 4 days of rest.

You can say that again. IW on fire....taking over

 

[bigraym]

Knock them out........

 

[HALL85]

IW with the dagger....NBA audition
