Postgame Thoughts… FSU game 2

[SWC75]

I've had enough. Heading out for a sub.

You must have depth.

Jim Boeheim satisfied with Syracuse’s late-game execution vs. FSU: ‘We got what we wanted’​

ffs

 

[Bayside44]

FSU is who we should be. They have tall athletes that would fit the zone everywhere. Play tons of guys minutes.

Can we have a guy like Wilkes with that fantastic mullet?

This is where I’m at, if I thought coach could come up with ways to turn it around it would be tougher to accept, but I think many have submitted that what we see is what we get and it’s not going to change.

Total Apathy Club has been established. We’ve set it up to allow in 25k fans. We’re seeing droves of long time fans come over after each loss.

 

[Bayside44]

The guy just doesn’t have it. He is a poor in-game adjustments coach. It is what it is. I knew we were not gonna pull this game out as I was watching at the game.

It is what it is. He has been loyal to us. But when you coach 48 years, most ppl win a lot of games. And that is what Jim has done. He can beat the bad teams, but a lot of the time gets outcoached. Point blank.

He's a great in game coach. He doesn't have the players. That's on him too.

He got a point blank-ish shot to take the lead.

 

[Bayside44]

I asked this last week… any updates on dasher? Haven’t seen him around. Hope all is OK.

He's good.

We were court-side. I watched every second of game action. I’m not seeing a lot of the H0T Takes here.

Sucks we lost. Definitely a couple of items we could’ve cleaned up. But the team played hard and competed, on the defensive end too.

He's good.

Thank you. Glad to hear.

What did you see from Benny’s body language?

Absolutely hung with it. The repeated lack of execution though late is apparent.

At about the 12 minute mark in the 1st half I started asking myself where he was. I was disappointed he didn’t get run. But I wasn’t watching him on the bench.

I don’t think anyone has questioned the effort all year long these kids play hard. Questions are mostly about coaching, recruiting(talent), and minute distribution.

Yeah, at the 4 minute mark or just under I didn’t feel great. Two things I really didn’t like from Joe tonight, … the finish obviously and the frustration foul after the strip.

We couldn’t afford to give up any possessions.

We were tied 64-64 and had 3 empty possessions. That was huge.

Coaching was fine tonight. Minute distribution is indefensible, nobody knows how other rotations would do. Recruiting, I guess.

Coaching was terrible the last 10 seconds or so considering we left timeouts on the table. If JB was locked in as soon as FSU dunked it he would call timeout instead of watching Joe chuck it up center court.

No excuse to have two time outs left at the end of the game. I’d understand if there were different scenarios on trying to surprise the opponent but with everything that happened? Come on…. Especially before Joe chucked it.

The last 10 seconds? Sure at 3.9 call a timeout. But you’re probably not expecting your JR PG to throw a bomb to nobody after the bucket. You’d expect a vet to get it to half court asap and call a TO.

Should’ve called it after the bucket though, I’ll give you that. Still think our game plan was fine.

Who you play and when you play them is the most important part of coaching. Jim coached a decent game and would have won if he had stayed with the 3 Gs

And you don't expect your super senior forward to not foul after missing his shot.

 

[Finwad32]

Sure. Better than sending a Hindenburg into outer space for no reason.

Maybe, maybe not. I’m not being a j@ck@$$, you just don’t know that definitively.

 

[two3zone]

Yeah, but that should’ve been reiterated before Joe was bringing the ball up.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Should have wrapped Evans up with 9.8 left.

 

[two3zone]

Should have wrapped him up with 9.8 left.

Even with the miss the game is far from over being down one. Over and over and over this team puts more effort into losing than winning. It’s mind boggling. I never want to hear “high iq” again when describing this team.
