I woulda went with Gillon at the end - he's been clutch

 

[orangenirvana]

that was the definition of hero ball by White

You mean one of the few guys on this team capable of making a big shot shouldn't have attempted a big shot?

 

[kirbivore]

not from 35 feet with 10 seconds left

 

[dasher]

Everyone wants to point out the short comings. This group keeps coming back. We might not make the NCAA. That would be because of our start. Not because of the way we are playing now

 

[edowd26]

Roberson...

 

[PauliePeppas]

Anyone defending White on that shot is clueless, they were down two ...just a selfish low iq shot...

 

[Dave85]

I thought Lydon was fouled really bad just before Gillon stepped out of bounds. Another bad no call.

 

[tee1222]

It's no consolation but I'm damn proud of the this team. We gave up plenty. They didn't and I expect them to fight the rest of the way.

 

[OrlandoCuse]

Thank god we got two attempts to screw up the ending of that game. Gives us lots of experience on how not to execute at the end of a close game.

Jeez, this team is its own worst enemy.

 

[Ghost]

Lydon just disappears way too much.

Gillon got us into OT, but otherwise, kind of awful tonight.

Frank Howard was close to our steadiest player today, maybe? Huh?

Roberson. You had your chance to be a hero!!! God I was rooting for you......

 

[ssbriefcase]

Get off Robey. Of all the times to hammer a kid

 

[4evaOrange]

Uhhhhhhh

 

[Dave85]

A good learning game. Now we have to beat Duke.

 

[Briancuse]

This team is a huge disappointment.

 

[PhatOrange]

I am sorry. Absolutely horrible coaching by SU. Why did they not pull Gillon over and try to slow him down. I know he hit the three to get us into overtime but my god he was horrible from that point forward.

Bull. Horrible execution. No other past Syracuse point would need to have been pulled over and slowed down. Gillon didn't know what to do. He thought JB was going to call a time out but they don't like to call time outs there. Gillon is not on the same page.

And whites 35 ft falling away three. Good lord

And if was a young team that'd be admirable. But we have 2 5th yr grad transfers and another sophomore who wwill be leaving early. This year shouldn't have been about moral victories

 

[OrangeDW]

White couldn't make a shot and two guys that are like 30 years old made bad plays with the ball at the end of regulation and OT. Bad coaching.

 

[orangenirvana]

I just can't fault our best player for taking a shot to win the game.

 

[Dave85]

I thought they showed some heart too.

 

[PauliePeppas]

Anyone who is upset at Robey needs to get real...

 

[Madbiker]

Should have had TT in for Roberson on last possession. Bad coaching. JB was asleep there.

 

[Cusefan0307]

This team is a huge disappointment.

If you said that in December I would understand, but you of all people didn't give us a chance against any of the top teams in the ACC.

 

[Dave85]

This team is a huge disappointment.

I wish you were out there playing. Keep practicing though.

 

[jncuse]

Honestly not pissed. We needed Battle -- we were gassed. We can still get 3 of the next 4 if Battle is back. Won't be easy, but not impossible.

 

[jdubs30]

AW3 is our best shooter - but with 12 seconds left he should have pulled that back out. If he was hot tonight I would have been all about that shot
