You know whats funny...
 
We shot 50 percent last game and 5-12 from three and got to the line for 31 freethrows.
Thats not all that bad.
 
Rutgers shot 41% and our defense wasn't awfull they made some touch shots. Especially that white kid.
We held their D to 16%.
 
 
Just putting things inot perspective.
 
Rutgers had 12 more shots then us despite the Turnovers and offensive boards being a push.
 
[B]*I think alot of it is just close games. If we are up by 7 the whole second half, teams don't cut it to 2-3, and we win down the stretch by say 10 I don't think people would care so much.[/B]
 
[B]Problem is we have been up 6 alot recently, teams knock it down to a one possession game or a small lead, and we get up 2-3 points before they miss a big shot and we finally make one to put the game away.[/B]
 
[B][I][U]I think alot of that is just the basketball gods helping RU on the road, UL on the road, Gtown becuase they are our rival and Uconn just because of their name[/U][/I]. [I][U]So don't look to much into it.[/U][/I][/B]
 
[B]I think it is being proven we have go to playmakers. Scoop and Joseph have been the go to guys. Getting the ball to our seniors has been our best way to go. But I don't think there is anyone on this board that believes CJ, Dion(if he gets out of his slump), Triche(he was our go to guy last year), or Melo(good FT shooter) can't hit a big bucket down the stretch either.[/B]
