Your Official SU-UVA Game Thread

Looking good guys, settling down. Stay with Virginia to finish this half.

Why does Lydon gotta force the post move trying to get to the basket? Just shoot the turnaround J if that's what he's giving you!

 

[Edfromsodus]

UVA is 3/5 from deep, 2 of which being very deep

Ty Jerome NYS player.

Kyle Guy Indiana.

Both freshmen.

 

[MiniCuse]

Is it just me or is UVA a low key, sneaky chippy defensive team?

 

[Cuse House]

We stop giving up offensive rebounds and we win this game.

 

[jdubs30]

I'm losing confidence in forcing Lydon looks at the expense of White and Battle touching the ball.

We havent' really forced anything to Lydon - he kinda forced that post up hook shot but he makes that sometimes. We need to free him up a bit more. AW3 and Battle can create their own looks but Lydon can't. And this isn't a game we can count on Gillon going off scoring-wise.

 

[We Are Syracuse]

UVAs gameplan against the zone stinks, IMO. We can win this if White continues to be his normal self. Tyus looks very confident also.

 

[jdubs30]

wow a missed FT

 

[Melancer46]

We're playing pretty well, but I don't think UVA's missing around the basket is a sustainable defense for us. We're going to have to pick it up on the defensive end to pull this out.

 

[longislandcuse]

Bruh... UVA is out of their mind with the 3 ball right now.

 

[Ghost]

Robey returns the favor with the assist to Lydon!

 

[jdubs30]

The 2 3's Hall have hit were from the exact same spot he missed it on the game tying 3 last year int he elite 8 lol

 

[skurey]

Lol these refs

 

[Ghost]

lol...how many elbows could that dude throw to clear out on one possession? And he gets a 3 second violation???

 

[longislandcuse]

Why does Lydon pass that to Roberson right there?

 

[jdubs30]

UVA games are always painful but I think our D is playing fairly well

 

[Melancer46]

Beautiful pass from Robey over the top to Lydon; with how aggressive UVA is doubling the ball on the screens, we need to be looking for that a lot more.

 

[Cuse House]

Well, they are making everything they throw up and we are down 4. Have to think they start missing those eventually.

 

[Ghost]

Throwing a pass to a cutting Roberson heading into two defenders he's going to make contact with at the moment of the catch......not a good idea.

Gillon should have let that go. May have been off UVA.

 

[Eric15]

I don't know what's going on with Roberson's hands. He literally can't catch the ball. He makes Baye Keita look like Jerry Rice lately.

 

[OrangeDW]

Why does Lydon pass that to Roberson right there?

Yeah, example of Overpassing. Shoot the ball.

 

[longislandcuse]

I don't know what's going on with Roberson's hands. He literally can't catch the ball. He makes Baye Keita look like Jerry Rice lately.

That's where Lydon has to be smarter though. Just shoot the jumper and let Roberson do what he's going to the rim to do, which is rebound. Who on earth thinks Roberson is going to catch a pass running to the basket, flanked by two defenders?

UVAs gameplan against the zone stinks, IMO. We can win this if White continues to be his normal self. Tyus looks very confident also.

They miss Brogdon and Gill big time. But they still have shooters everywhere.

 

[jdubs30]

eek too early to press...

 

[We Are Syracuse]

Why press Boeheim? That was dumb
