DooleyBull06 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 This one is slipping away. Poor execution on both ends. When we lose it’s bc of turnovers, bad FT shooting and lack of focus on D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DooleyBull06 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Motherf**cker. This is such a disappointing loss. Disgusting. We should play the rest of the season on the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UB85 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 What a shame to piss away that game especially after such a great first half. That loss puts them at a real disadvantage going forward and for seeding purposes in the tourney. They have to go on a run winning 5-6 games in a row.

NYS Bulls Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Just now, Erie County said: Graves. He can't even dribbled down the stretch. An awful game from him No defense from him.

DooleyBull06 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 This game was lost throughout the second half. And it embodied everything we see from this team when we lose. Poor FT shooting, iso ball on offense, defensive lapses and TURNOVERS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivantheturrible Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 I think the free throw shooting is the most frustrating part of this loss. So many times we’ve lost a game that is literally decided by poor FT. It’s at the point where teams are now hacking Jordan knowing he won’t make them, and they’re not wrong for doing it!

Guards who are primary ball handlers should be good FT shooters. No excuses. Crazy thing is Jordan has improved his FT% but that just goes to show how bad it was last year.

He’s got his moments where he’s incredible, then moments where he runs right into three defenders and turns it over. Watching him play gives me anxiety cause you just don’t know what to expect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuchMany Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Davonta Jordan has had some luck shooting over the years, but he's a poor shooter overall. He's fading FAR in random directions on every shot. And just brutal coaching out of the half. So frustrating. This team might be who we thought they were. Sometimes clutch, often clumsy and weak-minded. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has to defend other teams best back court player, he has to run offense and he has to be a scorer. It was so much easier last year for him when he had Carruthers and had three perhaps four players that could knock down the open three off the dribble penetration. Unfortunately we don’t nor he have that luxury this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DooleyBull06 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 It should be apparent to all of us that yes this team has talent and is athletic but we are wildly inconsistent. Not from game to game but literally half to half. The way the season is unfolding there is no dominant MAC team and anyone can beat anyone on any given day. I see us being 10-8 and having to win 4 tournament games. And with our inconsistency, it will be an uphill battle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bc ppl are just going to remember the final 2 minutes. Its a team effort and team loss. Lots of bad play in that second half. You can point to many examples. Rondo 3-11 forcing bad shots. Grant losing his head off that rebound. Team loss. Edited February 1, 2020 by DooleyBull06 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Huger had BG foul Jordan in the backcourt, I thought it was brilliant - it didn’t look so great when Williams got the rebound off the miss, but he was fouled and also missed the front end of the 1and1.

Not being prepared for hack a Jordan should not be an issue going forward. Tonight we learned the harsh lesson going forward we should be ready and prepared for it.

I know this team doesn’t have a lot of great shooters, that parts obvious, but when you run into three defenders you have at least 2-3 open players of your own. You gotta kick it out at that point and trust them to make the shot. Sometimes he does, but not as often as he should Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuchMany Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Obviously not why we lost, but the cynical "hack-a-____" should be called an intentional foul every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way too many drives into defenders l adding to forced shots rather than kick outs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
