Yikes, 2-15 from 3 land in the first half. This is getting ugly, we are very lucky to only be down by 7. We'll see how the 2nd half goes.

55-32...half way through the 2nd half...I can not stand to watch another bricked 3-pointer. You just cant win when you shoot 11% from 3 land and you shoot 35 of them a game. I'm going to bed.

yeah... this team has gotten worse since LLP's arrival. i dont know if it hurt chemistry or what, but yes, the average competition level has gone up, but... since he's come on board, they've gotten worse.
harris and LLP can't be on teh floor together because they both hold the ball too long and kill the flow of the offense.. both drive out of control, dont get foul calls, fall down ... or chuck it away.
manny is getting worse right now because he's getting no help. teams know to extend their defense since the 3 pt threats are no threat to drive and finish.
without the defensive intensity, this team is weak. they had it earlier in the year... turnovers, pushing the ball.. hustle...
its gone now. they better find it soon or NIT we go.

I agree! I hope this is just a quick hiccup and we get back on track. From the last couple of games I've watched we seem very outmanned in most positions. We need to tighten it back up.
Watching Michigan's play and then being here in ACC country and watching the level of play in that conference makes me beleive we're not ready for the Tourney.

i agree. we never seem to take advantage of OUR matchup advantages. If we have small quick guys, why is nobody ever open and why cant anyone beat their man off the dribble? Frustrating to watch stu douglass and novak just run around and cnostantly trying to get in position to jack a 3 from 10 yards behind the line.
they now need to win 2-3 games they shouldnt...(like MSU on the road, UCONnn hahah, etc...)
I'm in Virginia, and all i hear is idiotic ACC banter... in teh light of the big east, i gota say... the big east has depth but acc still has the elite.
big 10 will surprise some teams, pending their draw this year. lots of very solid teams.
