Miami Game Thread ... No Howard today

[OrangeDW]

What is Gbinije doing out there?

 

[We Are Syracuse]

How not to play basketball: Gbinije vs Miami.

G was awful today. We cant win an acc game if he has a bad game, especially on road.

Cooney's defense at the top of the zone was atrocious. Instead of guarding people, he gave them the snot eye. Those two threes killed our momentum.

We have problems with ball pressure a LOT the past few years. Dayton in the tourney game applied similar pressure and made things difficult for us. Miami cranked it up 2H and we folded.

We don't recruit point guards because zone.

 

[Ghost]

Has Miami ever not stripped someone clean this game? At least once you would think they would gift us a call. Not saying that was a foul...

This.

A lot of reason why we lost but out of all of them, Cooney going weak sauce under the screen to allow 2 wide open threes won Miami the game.

That last replay just showed how much this team loafs in transition. They're pressing and the ball is ahead of them and they are jogging back.

I'd say if Gbinje played anywhere close to his usual level, it would've helped a lot. He's been bad today.

G was exposed a little today. He could not handle against a pressuring guard.

 

[Ghost]

Mali should have had better recognition on that. Make the pass.

He's not a PG.

 

[SUalldway]

There is no point guard on this team..and no center. Makes it tough to win.

Pretty much sums it up. A replay of the Pitt game.

He isn't a pure pg.

Well, players don't get tired. So we have that.

There were a few in the second half that were disappointing. Lydon just watched a loose ball a couple times. There was once where Roberson never tried to get back into a rebound. Blah.

 

[Briancuse]

Even at halftime, I knew we were going to lose.

 

[UelSU]

He's not a PG.

That's my point to the other post.

Completely exposed. He had six inches on him and couldn't take him down on the block and score. He should have worked on that a lot in the off season if he was gonna be playing point. Oh well. Gbinije has been the lone bright spot this year. And Richardson.

When have you ever seen G have a post game? Who is going to throw him a post pass even if he could?

 

[OrangeDW]

Howard at PG going forward, please. Time to try something else. We're going nowhere with this. We might not win more than 15.

 

[Trueblue25]

Walked off the court with over 20 seconds left. Unreal.

 

[hoopsupstate]

G has been awful in our first two ACC games. This team has just folded once again down the stretch. I would like to see some accountability with some of these players. You want to get some of their attention, replace them with a walkon. At some point someone has to take control of this team. It's not our fifth year seniors. Miami has outscored us 23-9 in the past three minutes. It's time to make some changes.

 

[UelSU]

Rolled by freaking Miami. 3 losses to them in a row. Unbelievable.

Except for our fist two conference games, in which he's been atrocious

yeah, because Miami's bad and stuff

 

[Kevind13]

This is what it is going to be like all year. The big from the ncaa. They were forced to give back the Scholly so they make it up by bad officiating. It is what it is. We just have to deal with it

 

[Kevind13]

Even at halftime, I knew we were going to lose.

I texted my brother and told him they score 50 in thne 2nd half.
