[B]"[/B]We let two opportunities to get unexpected wins slip away and now we’ve let a game we expected to win slip way. If this continues, we won’t be expecting any wins at all."

If it weren't for bad luck, we'd have no luck at all?

Why do you think Lydon is playing so scared? It seems to me that if we are going to have any more wins, he must shoot - and score! They have to get the ball in the hoop quickly. If we're trying to catch up, and STAY up, we have to shoot. Maybe they don't because we can't rebound and so no one wants to take a shot that fails?

Roberson also doesn't want to shoot. Yes, we know his longer shots are unreliable, but he made two of them this game, I believe. At the end of regulation (I think) he was in a position to shoot and he was frantically looking for someone, anyone, to pass the ball to. He did, and then we ran out of time, or something. Again, I know we don't rebound well, but IMO he should take the shot!

Does Boeheim shame these kids in practice so much that they become shrinking violets? Because I don't think he does, but I can't understand how this team has become so unconfident.
