We are taking some stupid shots.
They are so much quicker & crisper with their passing. Jay Wright is obviously a heck of a coach
Killing us with dribble drive motion right now.
This is a basketball IQ game - we're equal or better physically but their court awareness and movement with and without the basketball is 3x ours
Just taking bad shots
We can't buy a ****ing shot right now. Fixing to get blown out of the building too with the help of the Zs.
Ugh, Shotgun......you might want to rethink that.Quote:

Don't.. we have really good players. Just have to get more rhythm & quicker passing offenseQuote:

This is starting to look like last year where 4 guys watch the guy dribble with the basketball and we can't create any open looks. Meanwhile Villanova's offense is a thing of beauty - and you get a 16-0 run
Beautiful basketball by Villanova. Jay Wright is THE best.

Howland
Almost every shot we've taken the past 7-8 possessions is forced. Sometimes you'll get hot and hit those but it's not something you can rely on and it's what got us beat a ton last year.
No doubt. Nova is hellaciously coachedQuote:

Take a look at the recruiting rankings. Their entire class last year was Top 100.Quote:

It's a game of runs. Don't call it just yet.Quote:

I love watching guards that play like Gillespie though - they see the floor and the angles so well
My thoughts exactly ... most games are. We find out how we respond to getting down like this. Also learn where we need to get better. Talent looks to be there tho.Quote:

Same play that won the title
Just made a nice little $20 on a side bet in the office that they’d score on that last possession.
You can't guard that the way we did - Perry served no purpose standing in the backcourt. Let them inbound it short and heave one from halfcourt
They're just better coached than us. And that's not a knock on Howland. But we're getting killed from a strategic perspective. They have a plan, and they're executing that plan
They play too crisp for us but we are good
Guy is fun to watch. Spoon would be guarding him.Quote:

Tough break but only one basket. Playing well.
Yes, we gave them a free inbounds. Perry should have guarded the in bounds passer.Quote:
