Postgame Thoughts... Louisville

[sugrad68]

I have never been so depressed after a Syracuse victory. 3 players scored 55 of the 70 points. 3 points off the bench with 1 shot made, 2 rebounds. And now the tough part of the schedule starts.

 

[Janner]

Absolute dumpster fire of a game. Maybe the ACC can give both teams losses, they definitely earned them

 

[Hopkins16]

Also how does Payne survive the year….

EWING...

Also how does Payne survive the year….

Payne will be a great recruiter. If he can survive this season. Once you have great talent coaching is easy.

This felt like watching SU vs Buffalo in football circa 2007 in the Greg Robinson era, two bad teams that did everything they could not to win.

I don't know if Joe fouled by accident or JB wanted to foul to put Lville on the line but 8 something seconds is way to early with this teams ball handling and rebounding issues to try and play like that. Secondly I know he slipped but Mintz had Jessie wide open, if he simply passes to him the games likely over. Lastly thank god El Ellis thinks he's Allen Iverson because he had two guys to pass to but simply lost the ball but Benny of course couldn't corral it and the clock mercifully ran out. I felt like I was watching Utica College versus Mercyhurst out there.

That was the worst basketball game by two teams I’ve ever seen played at the college level. At no point did we look like we even practice.

We we’re playing the worst power conference team of the past 10 years and they got every single loose ball and we continuously handed them the basketball.

I have zero idea what Judah was doing today. He was completely out of control.

Edwards has not played well offensively now two games in a row.

Girard is having to do way too much and nobody else did anything of much consequence.

 

[Madbiker]

Duke and UNC fans would be in hysterics if they watched this game. And keep repeating , what did we need these guys for in the ACC?

 

[Lukeyloo]

Our forwards have the absolute worst hands in the history of the world. Wow.

 

[JeremyCuse]

He did get the one at the end that mattered.

Which one was that??

 

[oTTo113445]

Ville was a good team today with an AMAZING crowd, we played good D.
If Judah has to pull up we don't get good momentum to the rim. Copeland could of maybe helped us get some easier ones today (won't say better looks inside) with Ben. Everyone played well except the free throws.
Overall a good team effort. A good win. Thanks, Orange that was fun.

 

[STEVEHOLT]

Jimmy coaching Judah even after the game. Love the coaching right until the end. Players still love him

Maybe coaching before and during would be more effective

 

[CardiacCuse]

Is there any resume bonus for winning but not covering the spread?? cuz if so, great job!

 

[FrancoPizza]

That game has me much more worried than I've been all year.

It's a win. Move on. Burn the tape.

Worried about what? Making the CBI?

 

[Madbiker]

Does Benny rub butter on his hands during time outs?

 

[JeremyCuse]

Brown and Taylor have to get more minutes. Watching Bell and Benny for 30 minutes is absolute torture at times.

 

[Ragman2000]

What a fitting ending for 2 awful teams.

We're not awful, Jesus Christ.

I have seen a track race with one guy crossing the finish line with a rupturing diarrhea, this is more bizarre than that.

and what kind of channel is ESPNews? I didn't even know it existed. Took me 5 minutes to find it.

 

[Dave]

Mintz out of control. What was he doing? Learn score and time and how to close out a game young fella.

Fell down. He was avoiding the foul and running clock.

 

[CardiacCuse]

Absolute dumpster fire of a game. Maybe the ACC can give both teams losses, they definitely earned them

alas, both teams getting L's for that wouldve been more fair than the traditional 1 winner, 1 loser

(although JG3 deserved to win, imo)

Yup. This game had GTown last year written all over it. Just glad we won.

 

[OmahaCuse]

I understand intentionally fouling if there's 3-4 seconds left but you can't do it with like 8-9 seconds its just way too much time. What a bizarre and stupid ending.

Even worse using three fouls up right away how about run some time off the clock before fouling

 

[Orangefan1]

Look we have won 7/8 games were they pretty no but this team is getting better

 

[Ghost]

Yup. This game had GTown last year written all over it. Just glad we won.

Eh, don't short change it - we won with panache. It's good to squeak out these close ones

Agree. Taylor has the best chance of helping us right now. He had a great steal earlier in the game. He’s doing better in the rotations. And he can actually score.
