EdDawg

That is on Howland. They have been shooting well all night. You either put someone down to try to rebound the free throw or immediately foul. Putting nobody trying to rebound let them throw the ball down floor quickly.

X had his man blocked out. The Vandy player put his elbow in his back and I guess the official saw X put his right arm in the air like he was throwing an elbow. I mean, it was just a strange call.

It was terrible defense pretty much all night, and they got into a groove just like X. That?s why I would have fouled at the end. Everyone knew they were going to make it if they got the shot up.

It may have put us into OT, but we were playing better at the end of the game. The fouls are what let them hang around at the end. I will admit that it would be pretty unconventional though.

Small glimmer of hope is Texas A&M is hanging by a thread with only 7-8 scholarship players left. If and it's a big if we beat both the Aggies and Vols this loss on the road shouldn't be the reason we don't get in. As the announcers said tonight this is Vandy's 4th win in a row at home. They beat Bama and they really should have beat Kentucky too. Committee will know that. We have to win every regular season game left and 1 in the tourney and I think we'll get into the play in game.

Goldendawg
02-14-2018, 09:21 PM
What in the world was Q thinking about to leave a shooter with the ball alone to go to his man with 2 seconds left? However, we put ourselves in the position to lose at the end in the last two games with a total lack of D on the three ball.

So what? We have the ball up 2 if the ref doesn't make that call and the X situation never happens. Appreciate the make up call, but it didn't help. X made a selfish play by shh'ing the crowd before he made both FT's.

I would never bet that. I get no joy out of state losing even if I get money from it. I want more than anything for you to be right

You think this team goes 1-4 down the stretch? That’s a bit of an overreaction even from you msstate7.

No Leadership... no Timmy Bowers, Darryl Wilson, Shane Power on this team....
I?ve watched the last shot 3 times and still...can not understand...why Q just switched off the shooter for no reason. Made zero sense. 2 gut wrenching loses back to back. Oh well.

Our remaining road opponents aren't great shooting teams so we have a chance to go 4-1 or even run the table.

Vandy is actually #11 in 3 point shooting %. Om is 10th. Tenn is #3. aTm is 8th. Lsu is 6th

Is X a junior or a soph? Either way I don't see much maturity in his immediate future.

Stapleton is our X factor. If we could get him to channel his energy toward rebounding and defense and embrace being the energy guy off the bench, this team would've locked up the NCAA tournament by now. He is a role player that thinks he is playing for the NBA draft. He needs to come off the bench rebounding and exciting the crowd with dunks and putbacks. I know Brandon Vincent was a starter but he knew his role. Stapleton could/should be our Brandon Vincent.

These tendencies don't bode to well for our future D. We give up 81 pts tonite, with 42 on made three's. Doesn't take Einstein to figure out this loss.

Ok, he got hot scoring tonight, but "needs to embrace rebounding and defense". That doesn't even meet the requirements of the Meat Loaf hit "Two Out of Three Ain't Bad". Oh well.

He needs to watch old tapes of Vincent. Not that x would think he could learn anyrpthing from him. Vincent was 3 times the player.

I have a question...
Why is Howland so stubborn that he would not change defenses. Man to man was not working tonight. Why not a 3-2 zone and defend the perimeter. Why not some full court pressure against a team that can’t handle pressure. Why not try something else. I just don’t get it.

How do you forget how to play defense overnight? It’s like we can’t do 2 things good at the same time. When our defense is solid, we can’t hit the broadside of a barn. When we shoot well, we can’t defend worth a crap. Just clueless, low iq, dumb, selfish basketball, and I’ve had enough of it!

Those numbers are misleading especially considering what they do at Memorial. They are horrid on the road and actually really good at home. This is their fourth win in a row at home including a win over TCU. By record they are one of the worst teams in the conference but at home they are a tough out.

I think we go 3-2 and get to 9-9 in the conference. That will put us at 21-10 and should put us middle of the pack. No way in hell do they go 1-4 Msstate7. That is a dumb as hell prediction even for you.

Please stop with the we lack talent bullshit. It gets old. Our struggles have nothing to do with talent. It has to do with leadership and maturity. We start five four stars and have two four stars that come off the bench and Stapleton and Datcher are both three stars. We are actually in the top half of the conference in talent.

While you are right, I would still be very concerned with our defense. We are giving up WAY too many uncontested 3s. We got outrebounded by VANDY by 9. We are not playing well. I am concerned with how we are playing... mizzou blew a huge late lead and we got a total fluke run of X 3s to give us a shot tonight. Those 2 facts disguise somewhat that we have been pretty bad the last 2 games

Shit, it literally comes down to two piss poor officiating calls. The phantom offensive foul on Peters to lose the Missouri game and the phantom foul on Stapleton that gave Vandy two more foul shots. I’ve looked at that play literally dozens of times and can not for the life of me find a foul. Q had got the rebound and we were up by 2. I like our chances there. So refs on just two calls decided two games.right there.
