Major blown opportunity wow

[Zepharus]

Chukwu losing the ball and that ill advised hero 3 pointer from Howard. Sucks because they could have done it. If Im Battle im pissed... that was Howard wanting to play the hero

 

[Brooky03]

It wasn't contested and he was scalding hot from deep. I have zero problem with him wanting to be the hero at the end when he was the hero all game.

10 seconds left on the shot clock and you hoist a 25 footer?

Battle missed one earlier - is he trying to be a hero too

Poor take

That was the tough part down 2...there was time and they were penetrating for most of the game. I don't care if he takes the three but that wasn't needed.

Well you certainly don't take the shot clock down any further than necessary

 

[CuseFaninVT]

You all don't think the real problem is more the screener in that play? Why have chukwu on the floor at all there? We can't win games like this going 4 on 5 on offense. Battle and Howard are talented, but not that much

Frank played a great game other than that final 3 ball attempt of his. Sucks that he missed. I wouldn't have minded if he was on the attack and had his defender on his heels, or if it was in rhythm. But he had just stumbled when he received the ball and then seemed like screw it, instead of moving the rock.

 

[PauliePeppas]

I had a ton of confidence in Howard shooting that, tbh we had to win it with a three. OT wouldve been really hard with fatigue

 

[cuse10]

The drawn up play was busted. Frank was supposed to drive to the basket off of the screen, but Luke Maye backed off. I don't have a problem with the three. Howard played excellent tonight. If he would have made it, it would have been the perfect way to end the game for him.

Howard hit 5 3’s. Battle made some big shots, but Howard was hot tonight.

Very true. Brissett was clearly gassed after his block of bery

Howard was shooting 55% from 3 before that shot. Your last sentence is silly.

100% agree. Game goes to OT, we likely don't have anything left in the tank, same as at FSU during 2nd OT, as we had that game in the first OT.

Exactly. Battle, Howard and Oshae all took I’ll advised 3 pointers with less than 2.5 minutes left when they should have been driving the ball. Don’t settle for 3s. Dammit! We had that game!

 

[Sherman20]

But it wasn’t the right shot for that point in the game. Drive the ball to the basket!

Yea, not quite. Bad take.

 

[FrancoPizza]

I was fine with the shot. It was a decent look. He squared up and had the height advantage on berry. Play for the win. Trunk monkey had shot its wad. We weren’t beating them in OT.

Honestly with the way we close out games I’m just glad we put up any shot that hit the rim. Nothing is worse than losing on a turnover a la ND.

You could take that reply, copy it, and just past it every single time that poster posts something.

Duly noted. I have a many to go before catching up with you.

Howard’s been the better player in big play moments this year. If I’m Battle I’m working on my shot.

No, you pretty much passed him when you made your third post.
