Losing record, 15 games in

He had GREAT inbounds plays. Not that long ago we'd free a guy up on a wheel to go deep and finish it.

Now...

Seemed like almost 20 years when we scored at will when he ran that high-post screen for a lob to a cutter off a baseline inbounds. Couldn't have been drawn up more perfectly, gotta credit the coach for those.

Times have changed, I guess.
 
No we deserved that win, FSU had the worst shooting game I've seen and we barely won
Not saying we didn’t deserve it, it ASU starts that pressure earlier and we lose. That loss was strictly on Hurley.
 
I was agreeing with you. In years past, yeah, going long was an option. We don’t have those players now, though.

Wasn't sure...

No one is THAT slow...heck Cole and Jimmy are at least tall and can catch more or less.

Wake handed us this game. Forget TV Teddy, etc, they missed foul shots, turned it over late, and this is what we do. That last inbounds looked like a turtle head going int its shell. It'd ridiculous.
 
I want to win every game so yeah, a loss sucks regardless of whether it is expected or not. For awhile, I thought this was a loss. Then it shockingly looked like a win, just to end brutally.

I would care more though if we actually were going to be a bubble team this year.
 
You don’t want one of your legitimate FT options running away from the ball like Joe was there. If anyone should have leaked out it should have been Benny.
At this point I’d give it to Shaq on an inbounds as long as he can catch it. Even if we gave it to Frank (if he was on the court) at least the ball is on the other side of the court if he misses the free throw.

Symir not being able to shoot is why he wasn’t out there. Still think he should have been there just as a break glass option though, over Benny. It’s better to get it to a bad shooter than not get it to anyone.

You said it in a much more simple way than I did. Lol
 
15 games to go. Looking at these last 15 in 5 game segments. Let’s take a look:

Pitt x 2
FSU
Clemson
Duke

Wake
NC State
Louisville
BC
VT

BC
ND
Duke
UNC
Miami


I think we can go 11-4 to finish the year. This team really is right there.

I liked that Benny got a lot of run. I do not wish to see JB3 at the 5 anymore though.

I may have had too much to drink today.

I’m all in on that. Hope is a good thint

I know we only gave up 38 points in the first half, but the defense was HORRIBLE. Wake missed 6 completely wide open unpressured threes by my count. Could have easily been down by a dozen at the break. First 8-10 minutes of the second half was amongst the better basketball we've played this year though. There's just no margin of error.

I mean, the ACC is terrible this year so anything is possible.
 
We could easily have 3 more losses, Hurley went to the pressure too late and Indiana and Fla St handed us their games. It’s scary where we are, the fact we won without them pressuring us is making me panic even more.
Not really a fair argument…..We could easily have 4 more wins. Wake, Miami, Virginia and VCU.

Team stinks but if we just got an inbound pass we win. Same argument about teams not pressuring us.

11-4? I’m really trying to figure out how to get 7 wins out of it.

But we didn’t. Because we’re slow.

Gotta recruit better players.
 
Hall of fame coach who has never had a good inbounds play in 40 years. Not even a basic one that high school teams run. It’s a joke.

…and oh that was a great defensive play by the Cornell transfer. Tavern league.
Hey, that hall of fame coach has forgotten more about basketball than you and I will ever know…maybe that’s the problem.

5-10. Bad teams find ways to lose.

We don’t have enough.
