- And the ball rolls back down the hill.
Our newly minted momentum is broken and a winnable road game goes by the boards.
- Both Matt Park and Jim Satalin commented that the team looked tired, walked the ball up and failed to get back on defense. I realize that last week featured a couple of great efforts that we can’t expect for every game but there’s no slack in the rope. If we don’t come out ready to make the plays necessary to win the game each game, we are going nowhere.
- Tyler Lydon got in early foul trouble, then injured a leg which he favored the rest of the game. Our best player tried, playing most of the game, but just didn’t have it. He was 1 for 5 and scored 2 points. He did have 7 rebounds but those were the ones that came right to him.
- Our two point guards were back in stinky mode, going 3 for 14. Howard ddi have 4 assist and no turnovers but Gillon, who had had 11 assists two games in a row had only 3 and 2 turnovers. We were down 6 with a chance to win when Gillon jacked up a 25 footer as soon as he got down court that clanged. JB pulled him for the rest of the game. Gillon continued his problems finishing, going 1 for 5 on two pointers.
- Andrew White had 13 points in the first half and 2 in the second on 1 for 4 shooting. With Lydon hurting, we needed more than that.
- Taurean Thompson scored 18 points but gave up
- 5 three pointers are not enough for us to win.
- When do pitchers and catchers report?
