My comments are:
1. The lineups were frickin nonsense. Taking out Tanner (our best 3-pt shooter) to put in Tyne, who was awful. Not having Roche in. If we are doing offense/defense, let's maybe do it right.
2. D-Lo driving to the basket and forcing up shots also doesn't work once the deficit is 5/6 and there's less than 30 seconds to go.
3. My worst play of the game (aside from the tech) was the possession where Marist was up 2 with about 1:30 left, and they were at the very end of the shot clock and in jail, and for some ungodly reason Tyne sloughed off of Pascarelli on the wing because the guy with the ball was driving his direction, and sure enough, kick to Pascarelli and bang. Dagger. Just terrible awareness, or if that is mandated by coaching (affect the drive and then try and recover), then terrible situational coaching. Peak Julius Johnson defense there. Over-help on the drive for no reason, then scramble too late to the dead-eye shooter having a monster game.
4. It was stated somewhere on here before, and I agree: we seem to be back to "can't stay in front, now we overhelp, and now we are doing the mad scramble recover defense with two guys running late at a shooter and now we are rebounding 3v5" defense. I flippin hate it.
I'm already at agitation level 8.9 and the season has barely started.
