State vs Butler- trophy game

[Coach34]

Tight one early. Down 12-11.

We seriously played Chol tonight before Melendez. Insane

[LC Dawg]

Looks like we used up our shots last night.

[EdwardDrayton]

Now that's the Cam we want to see, strong to the flush.

[Coach34]

They play basketball- not pick-up ball. We always struggle with these types of teams

[MoreCowbell]

We are playing like shit

[EdwardDrayton]

We're 1 of 12 from 3. That won't last; our run is coming.

[Coach34]

We're 1 of 12 from 3. That won't last; our run is coming.

part of that is the looks we are getting.

[HoopsDawg]

What are we doing defensively?!? Quit helping

[msstate7]

Butler shooting 45.5% overall and 6-10 (.600) from 3. We can't buy a basket, and we're down 3. Luck may continue, but surely things even out and we win

Agree.

[HoopsDawg]

We are not communicating defensively. Horrible rotations.

[msstate7]

-5 rebounding.

[HoopsDawg]

Brutal foul calls. We are in big trouble

[EdwardDrayton]

The bench is MIA on offense so far.

[StarkVegasSteve]

If it was not for Kugel we may be down 20.

[msstate7]

Hubbard is 8/33 last 3 games. Step up, Josh

[msstate7]

We have a decent team, but the sec is great. Losing this game would really put a damper on my outlook... the good sec teams win this game.

[Saltydog]

Hubbard is 8/33 last 3 games. Step up, Josh

He's still a defensive liability too. . . . . .

[msstate7]

Whoever was calling Hubbard the GOAT of state MBK has put a biblical hex on him

[chef dixon]

We lost to a SWAC team last year. We are fine

[Saltydog]

the number of point blank misses this team has every ballgame is unreal. Kugel leads the pack.

[msstate7]

We lost to a SWAC team last year. We are fine

Sure, but the conf is much improved

[msstate7]

Harris, Melendez, and clary = 0 pts. That can't happen

[HoopsDawg]

Jans finally put Cam on Brooks

[msstate7]

We can't get a stop to save our lives

[msstate7]

Ballgame. Practice defense

[HoopsDawg]

How do you leave Brooks?

[Brobi-wan]

We might be about to lose.

[msstate7]

Woulda been nice if this team could salvage a crap day, but of course they played like trash. This effort kind of effort will land us a 13th place finish in the sec. Get better!

[EdwardDrayton]

Butler bench: 30 State bench: 6

We played horribly

We're still missing a player who can take over a game when we need it. We are a good team; we're not a great team.

[msstate7]

Murphy with 4 pts on 2-7 shooting. Guess we should hold off on printing his all American tee shirt

[HoopsDawg]

That's not what we're missing. Hubbard literally can take over.

[EdwardDrayton]

That's not what we're missing. Hubbard literally can take over.

He may be that guy but he's not showing it yet. We need that to get beyond the first round.

[EdwardDrayton]

Murphy with 4 pts on 2-7 shooting. Guess we should hold off on printing his all American tee shirt

We needed him and Melendez and both just did not show up with much needed points.

[HoopsDawg]

He may be but he's not showing it yet. We need that to get beyond the first round.

?? He scored like 22.

This game was about horrible defense, missed chippies, and mental errors. Also got a bad game from a couple of guys that had played well to this point.

[StarkVegasSteve]

Hubbard and Kugel: 44
The rest of the team: 33


Not a recipe for success.

Hub, Kugel, Cam and Nwoko played good. Everyone else, not so much.

It's a tangle of variables. We've missed a lot of chippies this season and still won games. We did not play our best defense but Butler shot the ball well. Our bench who had contributed significantly in games was a no show on the scoreboard tonight. Hubby contributed but doesn't feel like he has the wherewithal to take over games when we need him. But it's still early in the season so we shall see.

[HoopsDawg]

Pitt is a must win on Wednesday. We've got Memphis but the rest are a bunch of RPI killers.

The Pitt game is a big opportunity for us. I think we respond and continue to build our resume.
