Basketball LIVE GAME THREAD: RHoops vs. Hofstra

[bac2therac]

Inexcusable piss poor last 10 minutes

 

[MadRU]

Missed more layups today then all of last season, well looks that way at least.

 

[biazza38]

Mulcahy is having an absolute horrific game.

He can’t hit a jumper outside the key. That’s a problem

 

[shields]

Make a damn layup.

 

[bac2therac]

Without Geo we are not a top 50 team let alone top 25

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

okay.. I am offically wrong about wanting to see more threes by mulcahy.. his stroke is totally different than last year... its bad.. could it be his stronger arms are an issue?

 

[Degaz-RU]

Hopefully this is just fatigue from three games in five days. If not, Syracuse is going to destroy us with their zone.

 

[RU MAN]

Sloppy, sloppy, sloppy. We have missed so many chippies. And Pike needs to run a better zone offense. You get the ball in the middle and your two wings cut to the basket. That way you have several alternative plays including kicking it out for open jump shots.

 

[whofrewdatmataRU13]

Sloppy, just get the W

Agree 100%

 

[DHajekRC84]

Boy this is terrible execution ...

 

[MadRU]

If healthy we really need him against Cuse

These guys are a predicted NCAA team.. but last year they were probably a 15 or 16. And they were probably better then.

We should have worked on half court sets in previous 2 games.

True, but Pike will work on Syracruse's 2-3.

 

[BigEastPhil]

Maybe they’re tired? We look disinterested. Don’t like what I see from the offense. We’re going to have a mighty tough time vs Syracuse. Offense not good without Geo

 

[zappaa]

No
He’s never had a good stroke

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

Team just looks like they’re crawling into a shell with RHJ on the bench. Total lack of confidence in offense.

 

[MadRU]

Myles to the line

 

[leftoright]

Need to let Mulcahy shoot to get some juice. Good floor general but damn he has not hit the broadside of a barn. Fix it before the real season.

 

[zebnatto]

Hack a Myles.

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

OK Myles

 

[RUJMM78]

The absence of a go to scorer on the court is evident with Harper on the bench.

 

[bac2therac]

Its not Hofstra causing is to be awful on offense. Hofstra was pretty brutal on offense as well today

 

[OTBOTOR]

Block was pretty sweet

 

[Rufaninga]

It's early in the season, things WILL get better as season progresses.

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Humbling block

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

There u go Tez

 

[CHR2022]

Myles 2 swishes on the line, big block, some fancy dribbling lol

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Those two 3 attempts looked terrible. Form way off

Not something that will “fix” before the season. Paul isn’t a good shooter but normal college basketball player progression will be fine from Paul. Shoot the 3 1-3% better each year so he’s shooting 10% better as a senior than a Freshman.

He will be a very good four year player.

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

No
He’s never had a good stroke

 

[biazza38]

Finish the game. Up 15 and Mathis goes completely out of control 10 seconds into the possession. Practice won’t be fun this week. And someone make a free throw. Our guards have been brutal with them

 

[bac2therac]

Why arent we just running clock..wow

 

[leftoright]

Announcer says Syracuse is a "tuneup" for Big Ten

 

[zappaa]

Why are you sending a highlight tape for?

 

[RUby RED]

Really ugly 2nd half

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

End

 

[shields]

Syracuse game is huge. At Maryland, Illinois and at OSU.

 

[MadRU]

Shaking my head at these decisions

 

[biazza38]

I can’t look away from this train wreck of a game
