Syracuse-Wisconsin game thread

[PauliePeppas]

Needed that mini run bad...id pay not to play Wisconsin ever again

Charging is the dumbest rule in basketball. Maybe the initial defender needs to keep his man in front if him.

Guys- we won't shoot over 45% from three all season. These games will happen.

All I heard all week was how wiaxons in wasn't good. They still have solid coaching and returning players from a final 4 team.

All things considered, not bad down 3.

 

[SteveC]

I'll take a 3 point deficit. I guess. That fact that they didn't score 30 has me feeling good about our chances. And most of their offense has come from someone who has been bad the rest of the year.

 

[UelSU]

Well, I'm not sure we can play worse in the 2nd half, right? Down 3. I'll take it.

It's the Citizen's United ruling for CBB.

I dont think anyone was expecting them to shoot like they did in Atlantis, but this? Ugh.

 

[Ghost]

Is this Peyton Manning in studio doing commentary?

 

[JeremyCuse]

Well as noted we looked awful and are down just 3

 

[orangefan13]

Awesome job to press that last possesion!

Pretty simple got to shoot better we have 9 field goals and 4 freethrows on 25 attempts.

Agreed. I think the guys are still gassed from Atlantis. My hope is our offense shows up the second half. It's pretty bad when Joseph is the fastest player on our offense. Great for him though! I'm glad he's having a good game. The kid works very hard in practice.

What the heck is in his cheeks!

They're a bunch of floppers who can't keep their man in front of them. It's pansy basketball.

Does Jeff Goodman talk with a big wad of tobacco in his mouth.

This.

We will be up and down all season. Get used to this.

This isn't the 09-10 team but it's certainly not some of the team's last couple years.

 

[Dave85]

We get it

I never said I was smart.

 

[CorduroyG]

Flop flop...flop city rockers

That's not tobacco!

Just messing with ya

I didn't think secondary defenders could pick up a charge. I must be mistaken.

 

[RF2044]

The biggest difference in that first half was that the majority of our shot attempts were held to one and out, whereas they got lots of offensive rebounds. Have to flip that in the second half.

Let's Go Orange!!!

 

[Dave85]

No problem. I'm not smart enough to be offended. You could have said a lot worse and I would have kept on talking.

I sure hope our offense shows up in the second half. I want to see Lydon make a couple of threes to start spreading these guys out.

 

[CorduroyG]

If andy katz had any ballz he would have said Hey bo do you teach your guys to flop on every other possession or are they doing it on their own?

 

[SoBeCuse]

Nah. They are executing and playing well. We are reverting to the 1st couple of games. Dribble around, pick up dribble, 1 pass and chuck a bad shot. Thought we actually dodged some calls. We are lucky it isn't a 10 pt + deficit.
