Basketball GAME THREAD: RHoops vs. Maryland

[PiscatawayMike]

Can't give up 38 points in a half.

Pike likes to say his team plays best when its back is up against the wall. Well, guys, time to show it.

Showed it!

 

[RutgersMC]

22 point turnaround in the 2nd half! That's impressive.

 

[fluoxetine]

Just absolutely dominated the 2nd half, damn.

 

[shields]

Great job Ron and Paul in 2nd half.

 

[Mikemarc]

Ron and Paul. That’s it

 

[RUwishbone]

I did not see that coming

 

[ancienthooper]

Best half of the season

Not bad for a poorly coached team.

 

[rufeelinit]

Tale of two halves. Looked like two different teams.

 

[mikeylew1992]

What did Fatts do to make everyone upset? I missed a good portion of the game - any video?

 

[shields]

Yes. Great win.

 

[Shell21]

Stole that one but we earned it in second half with great d and clutch shooting from Ron and Paul

 

[rucoe89]

Respect. They came back to play in that second half.

 

[mildone_rivals]

Great job on the comeback. Great job by the players. Great job by the coaches.

Sorry to say it, but a truly awful job by far too many so-called “fans” in this thread.

 

[ancienthooper]

Pathetic. Disgraceful. Embarrassing. Referring to this board.

 

[ColonelRutgers]

Yay!

 

[soundcrib]

Thank you Ron!

 

[leftoright]

Worth everybody's time

 

[RutgersLifeR]

That's how you finish the game!! Great road win. Now we'll all be in a good mood this weekend.

 

[gregkoko]

Mulcahy wanted this more than anyone on the court. The amount of hustle plays he made in the second half was insane. Add in Ron going super Saiyan from 3 and that was just so enjoyable

 

[MV9000]

Never seen a turnaround like Paul today. Ron clearly the star but Paul sparked this half with hustle, assists and shots. Love Rons game. This is what we need when Geo is cold others to contribute.
Additionally, the over substituting was nixed. Amazing what riding proper lineups does.

Threw an elbow at Miller. I thought Russell would be much better. He’s awful.

 

[Knightmoves]

Sweet Pea embarrassed with his pick today

The pup will be back.

His picks are snake bitten recently. Put him on the treadmill till his morale improves.

 

[RU_DIO]

How did Fatts not get a Flagrant 1 on the play in the first half. Throwing that elbow intentionally should be a flagrant, no?

 

[fluoxetine]

OP


No one..we were all here

@RUSCFORMERLYRULOU doesn’t seem to have posted in the 2nd half, whoops.

He couldn't figure out what thread to start

 

[bac2therac]

Great job on the comeback. Great job by the players. Great job by the coaches.

Sorry to say it, but a truly awful job by far too many so-called “fans” in this thread.

Lol

my friend actually went to URI where fatts transferred from and said he could win them a game but more often than not he would lose them the game w/turnovers

Sham

 

[Luvscarletknights]

Once again, Paul haters do not have eyes or have never played ball.

His BB IQ is off the charts.

 

[Degaz-RU]

This might be the half that saved the season

 

[RUz91]

This team sucks.

Hyatt doesn't pass.

Paul can't hold onto the ball.

The total team iq is that of someone on the spectrum

Hey **** you

 

[RUJMM78]

I now believe in miracles.Harper was the shot maker with a barrage of 3 pointers.Congratulations to the coaching staff and players for a outstanding second half.

 

[tychicus_rivals329926]

So we can still go dancing??

 

[MLBash93]

Hey **** you

You are right! **** me!

 

[RedTeamUpstream94]

I did not see that coming

Honestly. I think most watching that first half saw NOTHING from Maryland. Rutgers GAVE them that lead.

so actually the 2nd half doesn’t surprise me at all

Maryland truly sucks. We coulda won that by 30+ If they didn’t play like total **** in the first half

 

[Luvscarletknights]

Omuruyi got pushed in the back on the rebound

We all yelled the same thing.

 

[RUinPAC10land]

Way to D up in the second half! Great win.

 

[fluoxetine]

So we can still go dancing??

Yes but it requires us to run an absolute gauntlet in February. (And close out January well obviously). It still isn’t likely imo, we dug ourselves too big of a hole early.

 

[mildone_rivals]

Pathetic. Disgraceful. Embarrassing. Referring to this board.

I had to ignore the posts for most of the first half. Some of our fellow forum members quit on the team way, way too quickly with comments I wouldn’t even make about other team’s players, let alone our team’s players.

Luckily, our players and coaches didn’t quit on the game at any point.

Kudos to the fans who don’t quit on the team, and who understand that we will have our ups and downs all season long, sometimes within the same game, and that games are 40 minutes long.

 

[motorb54]

I work the clock for HS basketball. Angers me when I see the clock not start until Maryland took the ball over half court.

It will never be worse than the women's game at Tennessee.
Lost a lot of respect for Pat Summit after that game.
