Basketball GAME THREAD: Rutgers Hoops vs. Penn State

[bac2therac]

Remember PSU went up 20 at the RAC last year before a worthless comeback by RU

 

[zappaa]

Hard to believe I’m watching the same team I’ve watched all year.
This looks weird, something is amiss.
I’ve never seen anything like this

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

How does a D1 basketball team not have anyone on the roster who can shoot the ball consistently

How many d1 teams dont run a half court offense?

 

[RUsince52]

Don't even bother throwing it inside to Carter.

 

[Scangg]

Lol Doucoure with a terrible hook you see at a pick up game last game after playing for 3 hours when people aren't playing seriously

 

[Section114]

We will be lucky to get to the NIT.

 

[BOCA93]

How was Duke a 4* recruit?

 

[MV9000]

Why the f is duke in

 

[RUsojo]

And thats where we are headed

bring on the hate but him saying that all year was very Ash like

 

[ColonelRutgers]

How did we win 9 league games. We are horrendous. Depressing.

 

[brad1218]

Luck ran out. As ive said, you have a low low low ceiling when you dont run an offense, your defensive philosophy is hope the team doesnt hit open 3’s that we give them.

Just stop. We are getting wide open shots and throwing up air balls and bricks. Our talent sucks.

 

[Anon1751594821]

If you are open, shoot the ball! What sense is it to not shoot when you are open down 21?

Best of Luck,
Groz

 

[RUsince52]

When we spread them out, no move to the basket when we have the chance.

 

[Jonas Grumby]

Buggly

 

[Shell21]

Embarrassing effort with everything on the line . Enough with the bs excuses Pike ; get them playing

 

[ScarletLongIsland_rivals]

Sorry, but it’s on both Pike and the players the way they have come out so putrid the first half of all these recent games.

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

SHOOT THE THREE damnit

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

Why the f is duke in

Why is he even still here?

 

[bac2therac]

This was a game we had to keep in the 50s and low 60s...they have 40 at halftime

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

Why is he even still here?

because Myles sucked and Carter needs rest?

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Just stop. We are getting wide open shots and throwing up air balls and bricks. Our talent sucks.

If thats your argument ill play along. Is pike recruiting to improve that?

 

[Fzacsattac]

Good bye Cliff O. He won’t want to join this clown show.

Oh boy..........well there’s a dunk by Mc!

 

[RUTrack94]

On the bright side no more NCAA heartbreak

 

[RUsojo]

Gotta live and die by young rest of tonight. Our best games were with him leading the way when geo was our or playing limited minutes

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

How was Duke a 4* recruit?

he’s a walk-on at this point

 

[Shell21]

We will cut it to 8 at some point and make a run only to lose by 12

 

[bac2therac]

Why is young fouling

What a stupid team

 

[RUsince52]

It's a tricky 2 for 1 op.

 

[czxqa]

Hide the wife! Hide the kids! They rapin' everybody up in here!

 

[koleszar]

How many d1 teams dont run a half court offense?

Oh I know this. 1

 

[RUich]

This team may well be starting to choke with the pressure of the post season expectations.

 

[Scangg]

So many different line up combos Pike desperate just throwing **** against the wall hoping it sticks

And somehow none are small ball? Whyyyy not try it? Now Duke playing minutes. I will say at least he tries out there but can we please see a small ball lineup once this year? Or are we going to lose 8 out of our last 10 but cant risk even trying it?

 

[rufeelinit]

The bench shots are interesting. Don't look pissed but rather dazed and confused.

 

[fluoxetine]

,

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

Pike has completely lost this team. One of his attributes is that they always played hard for him. No longer true.

 

[ColonelRutgers]

We care a lot more than the players unfortunately. Poor effort, poor focus, poor coaching, poor talent. Just poor.

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

And somehow none are small ball? Whyyyy not try it? Now Duke playing minutes. I will say at least he tries out there but can we please see a small ball lineup once this year? Or are we going to lose 8 out of our last 10 but cant risk even trying it?

Exactly. Why not try those last 4 mins with yeboah, harper, caleb, young geo?

 

[RUsince52]

Penn St has to shoot about 10% the second half for us to make it a game.

 

[MV9000]

Only one I’m enjoying watching play is Jacob. How the ******* tables have turned from earlier in the year.

 

[hbbsm713_rivals]

Still don’t think that’s low enough with how bad our offense is
