Like he would have hit the FTs. This team continually craps its pants at the end of games. That Rahon shot was absolutely pathetic.
HJS {l Wrote}:It was another great effort that gets undone with just terrible end-of-game play. I actually think it has much more to do with coaching than the kids. We get very stagnant and tight as the game ticks below 2 minutes. I seem to recall similar situations that we failed to convert on when Reggie was here. I recall a lot of standing around watching Reggie waiting for him to create.

Wonder if he'll transfer. He never plays anymore.
BC needs to sign one more guard. Lonnie America East Jackson reared his ugly head tonight. Kid is wildly inconsistent.
HJS {l Wrote}:Holy crap... I'm being complimentary and you guys blast me? It ain't any sort of secret that Don has a shot-ton more close losses than close wins. This year, we've also converted a lot of late leads into losses. I think it all goes to the same coaching problem... at the end of the game, the team spends too much time worrying about the clock instead of scoring.
Btw, I'm really fucking sick and tired of the same two lame excuses that are trotted out every loss (a) the refs sucked and (b) freshmen mistakes. They are both pathetic and usually wrong.

I think the Don has done a pretty good job with in game coaching this year. Not his fault his players can't seem to make shots. Hanlan should have made that shot, he got himself free and open. He also should have hit that free throw to tie Miami.

First, I prefer to have the ball in Anderson's hands than the frosh. Second, when we have the lead at the end d the game, our offense is radically different. It's a lot of standing around, burning the shot clock. Those offensive sets don't resemble anything like what we do up until that point. And, let's remember that the Miami game was because he missed the 3rd FT, we are talking a complete collapse in the final minutes... the symptom of which I am bringing up.

We didn't score a single fucking point in the last 2:15 of the game. Our last field goal was with 3:23 remaining. Pull up ESPN3 and watch the last 9 minutes. Tell me the offense we ran until the 3:00 mark was the same we closed the game with.
The fact that we again played and not-to-lose again at the end of the game doesn't mean that it wasn't an excellent game (coaches and players up until that time).

This is ridiculous. The Don coached a great game. Good rotations; good timeouts. Had the boys in position to win the game against a top 5 team. Just shut up and accept that players ultimately have to make big shots to win games like these; our Freshman didn't. They will in 3 years -- or maybe even next year. A hell of a lot of fun in Conte tonight. It shows the boys what is possible.....they'll want more of that!

Do you agree that you'd rather have the ball in Anderson's hands at that point?
