We wouldn't have been in that game without Ready. He gave us the 7 point lead and then Sword gave it away.

Ready and sword helped keep us in the game.
When half or more of the full team is contributing less, does it make sense to call these two out?

Sword turnovers and obviously missed free throw at the end of regulation, which could have won it.

Newman didn't show up today. He didn't play much and when he did, he didn't do a damn thing. Q was struggling but he did contribute in other ways(8 points, 6 boards). Daniels and Thomas played really well today. Maybe more man and less zone. Made our run in zone when Ware was out of the game.

Because at the end of EVERY close game they are the ones that keep us out of it whether it is a missed ft or a terrible shot selection. Southern, Florida, almost Ole Miss, and this game to name a few.

Sword had 10pts, 7 rebounds, 2 steals, and 6 assists.
Yup, he had 3 turnovers and went 2-3 from the line.

What a chump.***


We were 11 for 16 from the line, but Sword's 1 miss is what could have won it? No, many couldnhave won it.

Its very easy to see were we lost this game and that is at the FT line. And what I mean is our lack of aggressiveness. We didnt hit the bonus until 3 mins to go.

I stand by what I said. He had a chance win at the line and he had shrinkage, simple as that. Ready would have been the only one I had confidence in to get it done.

We lost because Newman was a ghost tonight and we failed to figure out how to get him involved after 45 minutes. That's on Howland.

At least you gave up the argument that Sword's whopping 3 turnovers is reason to call him out.

Again, yes, Sword making that free throw could have possibly won the game.
Just like lots of other missed free throws and shots could have won the game.
