It has to be Geo

if RU takes a quicker shot and misses there is still time for either a putback or if you foul, you can still tie with a 3, when the Geo option went away, Harper had to drive in there.

Not sure what you are referring to. He got the ball of course , got double teamed, gave to Harper who had a path but gave it to Yaboah. Nobody went to the rim. Not Harper, not Geo. And if course the star of the game wasn't there.

This!

Read your post tomorrow when you’re less emotional and have an opportunity to watch the last 30 seconds again. Baker was doubled and HAD to give up the ball. Where he was on the court and given the aggressive D, that had turnover written all over it. He was fortunate to get it to RHJ.

PS - glad you weren’t my coach :Wink:
I guess PSU could play such aggressive D because they had 2 fouls to give.

if Harper had recognized him before trying to aimlessly drive in, Yeboah was open for about 15 seconds, I think if the pass came about 4 seconds sooner, he might have had any even better look. That no one was trying to drive to the hoop though is disappointing, it was all just around the perimeter

The issue was they gave it to him way too soon and he got stuck. Why? Because we didn't have the damn TO so they could have inbounded from mid-court and done the usual stuff. It should have went to somebody else and then Geo.
I'm certainly in the group that thinks (just like our other programs..we are clueless on the O side of things). ! trick pony show at the end.
If they ran a double off Myles with less time left what would Geo do then? Give it to Myles who now has to the ball on the perimeter with no time left?

I swear our fans dont watch the games or have no clue what's going on out there. GEO HAD THE BALL. Everyone knows he was going to have the ball. Chambers had his team prepared for it and they ran a double team at him. He has to pass it there
Watch it again. I did. As Harper was dribbling the ball out high before passing the ball to Yeboah, Geo was anchored on the left wing watching. That's when he should have come hard to the key to take a pass. Harper didn't want to take it there and was practically begging for someone to take it off his hands.

Thats what El Amin said in the cbs show recap..he wanted Baker to come back and get the ball and go one on one in that situation

I'm not understanding your comment. Miles wasn't and shouldn't have been anywhere but heading to the rim.
As he did when getting stuck in the corner he holds the ball way too long when he sees the double coming and gets stuck. He got it in a bad spot again.
