Back from the dome tonight.  Haven’t made it to many, but some general thoughts.

Ga Tech defended hard and did not leave our shooters. Really made it tough for our shooters to get open looks. Especially Buddy.

The Buddy iso plays were a disaster tonight. So many forced shots and it was so obvious in person that he was not passing out of them….and then the rest of the team just stands and watches.  Really hard to get offensive boards off his shots. Everyone just stops competing.

I thought Cole played really well. Rebounded, defended, let the game co e to him and hit that really big three to answer early in OT.

Can’t say enough about Sid. Played hard and his experience helps him limit wasted movements.  Love the ball screen take to the rack. My favorite play off the game.  Love that he getting a chance.

Other than shooting I actually thought we didn’t play terribly. It’s who we are and what we’re capable off.  Give Tech credit.

I think there was a possession where Jimmy Boeheim and Pastner literally could have held hands. Made me crazy. Officials have to keep coaches off the court when the ball is live. Have to. And coaches have no right to complain when officials say something.  Pastner is such a tool.

Thought Jimmy played well, but I could have lived without his end of game iso. Once he’s standing still in the lane, he’s dead.  He can beat people moving off the dribble by creating angles with an oft timed release, but his flat footed pump fakes in the fool nobody.

Frank was much better in the second half.  Wish he was more aggressive on the roll to the basket.

Overall, just win and move on. Get two more wins and avoid a losing season.
