This was a horrible loss again against a horrible team. There’s nothing good to take from it.
I don’t care if he was rusty JJ was selfish and really hurt the team on both ends, but particularly with his shot selection. Had some unserious turnovers as well.
This was arguably Donnie‘s worst game of his Syracuse career. His defense was atrocious and he has to learn how to contest or block shots. He just needs to be tougher and he willing to give up his body to go get the ball instead of staring at it on the floor. He also needs to learn how to move without the ball. And try to dunk.
I was happy that Red finally pulled Carlos. I guess watching him turn the ball over, get burned off the dribble and not distribute was something he finally found to be troublesome.
We can’t rebound or play defense. Lampkin, Carlos and Davis were useless.
I guess the bright spot was the long national nightmare of Chris Bell not making a three is over. But even that small joy was ruined by Bell yelling at Red after Bell made a bad pass.
 
I love that devo went to the "well theres a lot of new guys this year" as if

1) that isn't entirely by choice from red and,
2) that doesnt impact every school in the country.

Oh, and he can kindly off with telling us we dont know basketball, because it appears the coach doesnt know it either
 
54 points given up in second half. FSU is better than us. They have more weapons and can defend. They might surprise some people.
Just like le moyne, and youngstown, and texas tech, and colgate, blah blah blah

we are bad. When we can stop rationalizing it by pretending every other school is the 2016 Warriors we can finally recognize that the issue is at home
 
I don’t see another win on the schedule the way things stand and with how poorly this team is built and coached
Mid-December I thought a winning season was the maximum. By the end of December I thought 10 wins might be a stretch. Now I'm wondering if 7 wins is a stretch.
