Oh my god that was awful

Virginia is going to pound this team.

 

[Jake]

Tortuous ending.

Why did Joe foul with 8.2 seconds left?

Louisville’s floor is dangerous.

Lucky that they didn’t call Jessie for the reach in.

Why in Gods name is Benny throwing the ball anywhere in that situation. Just hug it!!!

Just horrible basketball.

The SU that shows up at UVA better be much different than tonight's version.

 

[Madbiker]

This amazing coaching by JB should get him a 5 year extension at least.

Giving this 3 fouls with only 4 seconds of the 12 run off the clock. What was that Jimmy?

Great job by Jesse to tip ball away. If Mintz passes the ball to open man on press, game would have been over. That’s what JB was telling him after the game. Not bad strategy to foul up three.

 

[Bulldog04]

That floor is trash! You might see players slip on those stupid logos or advertisements, but I've never seen so many players slipping all game long. Is there an ice rink underneath?

Kfc grease

 

[Red Holzman]

Wouldn't be surprised to see that ending again on SportsCenter

 

[Newhouser]

I mean, mintz keep the dribble and the game is likely over, he has been on the bad end of multiple end of game situations at this point. He’s not clutch and I think symir should be getting the ball over judah

This board definitely needs to pump the brakes on Judah.

JB playing chess everyone else playing checkers

A lot of teams foul when up three late in game. Nothing at all strange about that.

 

[Irt4su]

Not clutch and Symir is? Let's walk it back on that one. Symir must be hurt we needed him to spell both Joe and Judah. Judah is better when he gets a blow.

Me too. It’s been so long. Stay single

 

[Orangezoo]

That was without a doubt the worst we've played as a team all year.

 

[phil77]

Honest question what was Bell's +/- that game? Had to be at least 15-20 right?

 

[JustPherU]

If you're making a list of top Orange victories and that one doesn't make your list, I'm not sure what you're looking for. Right up there with 4/7/2003. I wonder if ADJW can get ESPN to resurrect ESPN Classic?

A one point win in Louisville was one of Boeheim’s best wins ever. It happened 46 years ago though!

 

[CardiacCuse]

Classic JB slide-rule

 

[hoopsupstate]

We better hope Virginia doesn’t shoot well because they will pick apart this zone. They can put several players in the middle and pick us apart.

Wasn't he on the floor? Traveling or a held ball if he doesn't?

 

[Orangezoo]

I obviously don’t mean in this game and I think you knew that… and I’m not saying symir is some super clutch player, just that he is a senior who can likely handle himself better than Judah. Judah is a better overall player but he has cost Syracuse 3 games and nearly cost them a 4th.

Good god.. knock it off. Judah has not cost us 3 games. That's garbage.

Coaching owns the losses way more than Judah.

 

[OmahaCuse]

My gripe was not going offense / defense and leaving Taylor in instead of bringing in Brown. Ended up not hurting but dont get it

Judah throwing the ball away against Pitt, his turnover against Bryant and his out of control play against St. John’s at the end of regulation? How does coaching own any of that when the player can’t keep himself under control? I’ll take coaching mistake by giving him the ball but at some point players need to make plays and if they can’t, he shouldn’t be given the chance

That's right everything that happened up to that point didn't matter. Like I said- knock it off. You will throw every player under the bus before criticizing the staff. Great way to support the kids.

You don’t foul by 3 with that much time left on the clock. I think the general rule of thumb is fouling up by 3 is a good idea, but only if there’s 5 seconds or less.

When you’re talking about end of game scenarios then yeah, the rest of the game doesn’t matter in this discussion… that’s why it’s called “end of game” scenarios. That’s like arguing defense shouldn’t be an issue because the offense should be scoring 150

I agree Judah's worst weakness is probably end of game situations...

He's a great player for a freshman...but still has a lot to learn.

I'm a huge fan of him and his game...but its just facts.

(and someone needs to teach him not to yap at refs, especially on the road...they are biased for the home team...just accept it and fight through)
