Thanksgiving Day Game Thread: Pirates vs. USC

[Piratz]

USC isn’t a so-so team but it’s hard to play when you have guys shooting so poorly. Our starting backcourt is 2/19.

Dawes has been an absolute nightmare yet again. 0/10 terrible judgment. We look better with him on the bench.

 

[IronKaz1]

we wouldnt be getting beaten so bad if we made even 25% of our 3's

 

[ivyhillparkk1963]

Dawes needs to sit down. He has let up 2 wide open 3s this half. And is complaining after each one.

Keep him on the bench please

 

[IronKaz1]

the dirty white boys 3's going in was the nail in the coffin

 

[HallBall7392]

this is so hard to watch. Wusu was a much better player at St John’s.

 

[IronKaz1]

wth did IRVINE do that we couldnt

 

[IronKaz1]

if we lost whatever, but the beatdown and poor offense is alarming

 

[MTOleBlue]

Great run. Only down 11 now. Keep up the great play of these last few minutes!

 

[Section112]

We have a heartbeat. Was Dawes benched? We look so much better without him. Not only was his shooting bad but he was getting schooled defensively.

 

[TomD82]

Trying to get it under double digits. But just too inconsistent playing.

 

[IronKaz1]

Iowas shot worse than us from 3 so you know what that means , 2morrow they BANG EM IN haha

 

[TomD82]

We have a heartbeat. Was Dawes benched? We look so much better without him. Not only was his shooting bad but he was getting schooled defensively.

He had to be benched. Dawes is like a Gants player who they seem to continue to play.

 

[Hall-O-Daze]

DAWES! Lol

 

[TomD82]

He hits a big 3, but man I can't stand the type of player he is.

 

[MTOleBlue]

It's a 6 point game...

 

[IronKaz1]

bediako bangs inside, never gets a whistle though

 

[stipe65]

It's a 6 point game...

You give us credit for at least continuing to play hard.

 

[Gohall129]

Lot of contact on Bediako going uncalled

 

[ivyhillparkk1963]

Like to have some of those empty trips back . Be a different game.
BTW. Coleman doing a nice job on collier

 

[IronKaz1]

3 fouls in a row in 30 seconds i see how this is going

 

[IronKaz1]

and that was our chance, sad part is were in California and i feel like we have more fans then they do and ANOTHER no call on Bediako going up

 

[IronKaz1]

#9 smacked the sh-t outta Bediakos arm going up but nah no foul

 

[NYShoreGuy]

He hits a big 3, but man I can't stand the type of player he is.

Too much a gunner shoots way too much

 

[MTOleBlue]

Collier pushes off every time and yet the calls go against Coleman every time.

 

[MTOleBlue]

THREE POINT GAME!!!!

 

[Hall-O-Daze]

WOW! Can we steal this??!

 

[TomD82]

Collier pushes off every time and yet the calls go against Coleman every time.

And he gets very his 5th foul

 

[IronKaz1]

nah the refs will keep calling us hand checking fouls to make sure we have no shot

 

[Mrpiratee]

Competitive! Gotta love the fight

 

[MTOleBlue]

The officiating inconsistency is really depressing. Richmond gets shoved on his layup and no call, then USC does the same thing and we get tacked with a foul.

 

[shupat08]

Dawes blowing more defensive assignments

 

[Hall-O-Daze]

Fouls gonna do us in.

 

[MTOleBlue]

So many of these blocks have an insane amount of body contact below that's going uncalled.

 

[hallgrad80]

This is a team with multiple faults and its Time to accept that and give more minutes to the underclass men as they can’t be any worse then the seniors we’re giving playing time to.

 

[NYShoreGuy]

Whistle a bit less than ideal...usc made timely long 3s during this game..
Shu another weak shooting team this year

 

[Hall-O-Daze]

Same old story. If we didn’t work so damn hard to dig ourselves into an inescapable hole, maybe we would have a chance at being a decent team.

 

[MTOleBlue]

We have a ton of fight and really need to work on our guard play as BE play comes closer.

 

[JTSHU]

Typical hall. Go down 20, fight back, come up short

 

[Mrpiratee]

And as usual I find myself saying at least there are some things from the second half to build on….

 

[IronKaz1]

when it was 61-57 we had a good shot but wusu rushed the 3 and game over
