Hofstra Pride - 2PM Tuesday

[SpiderK]

Get Grace out of the game

 

[urmite]

Shame we don’t have Sherod to bust this zone up. 2 for 8 from 3 isn’t shaking Hofstra up to much.

Is 3 for 13 any better?

 

[SpiderK]

Geez, they just don’t take the free throw shooting seriously. Pathetic

 

[Dr. Spidey]

Remove Grace from the game

 

[urmite]

At 55-46, I thought we were finally getting some breathing room...

But allowing 2 made threes by 2 different players in 3 minutes didn't help.

 

[Gallipoli]

Crabtree has 8, but is 0-2 from 3. Golden is hitting the 17 footer.

 

[PhillySpider]

defense needs to step up. they are shooting 58% ans a lot of that is getting very good looks

 

[Dr. Spidey]

If Richmond drops this one...I swear

 

[whampas]

If Richmond drops this one...I swear

Better warm up some 4 letter words. We're dangerously close.

 

[PhillySpider]

they are shooting 70% in 2nd half and thats mostly on us!!!

 

[whampas]

they are shooting 70% in 2nd half and thats mostly on us!!!

The good news is we have all our timeouts.

 

[urmite]

they are shooting 70% in 2nd half and thats mostly on us!!!

5 for 5 from three in the fourth quarter until that last miss...

 

[PhillySpider]

we give up a dunk at a crucial time brutal

 

[8legs1dream]

are they about to win this game?

 

[Gallipoli]

oh boy.

 

[Spiderbymarriage]

They look every bit our equal. If we're really top 20, we've got to beat teams like this easily.

 

[Dr. Spidey]

What a disgrace. Grace had too many minutes.

 

[PhillySpider]

They look every bit our equal. If we're really top 20, we've got to beat teams like this easily.

we are not

 

[whampas]

Ball game.

 

[SpiderVol]

This is why the polls were correct this week. We are not a top 25 team.

Defense is too soft.

 

[SpiderK]

Looks like we got caught watching the paint dry.

 

[SpiderVol]

Down 1 with 3 mins left and we give up a layup, an offensive rebound, and back to back dunks on 3 consecutive possessions.

 

[8legs1dream]

so Blake was well enough to sit right up and bitch about no foul but Moonpie thinks he was too injured to play and wanted a stoppage?

 

[urmite]

If they are shooting 37% on FTs and 59% from three, don't you start thinking about fouling early?

 

[URWilk110]

Maybe the "all that matters is if we win" crowd will now see the issues with the team. We have not played good basketball at all for 8 straight games. Forget the Kentucky win, that was garbage as we now know. This team is not as good as a lot of you think.

 

[Gospiders06]

Just another bad loss with Mooney. Not top 25

 

[Gallipoli]

Zone defenses are a problem for this team.

 

[SpiderVol]

right now this is not an NCAA tournament team. Talent yes but that it right now.

 

[Gospiders06]

This Hofstra team lost to St.Bonaventure

 

[Dr. Spidey]

Huge joke right here. Really bad

 

[fatherspider]

Best team ever!!! This Hofstra team was down 33-7 to St. B. Mooney just doesn't seem to get his teams up for every game. That's my take. Disagree if you want but there was no sense of desperation during this entire game.

 

[Eight Legger]

Embarrassing.

 

[Dr. Spidey]

Just lost to one of the worst teams in ncaa basketball

 

[spider23]

ut to me this is an "energy" game. If we play like we can and are motivated for 40 minutes, we win by 15+. If we come out flat, missing shots - this will be a dog fight until the end.

Sometimes I hate being so right.

30-7, then tied at 55.

Not that we shouldn't play a lot better than this!

This was a bad loss, but that’s an absurd statement.

 

[Ferrum Spider]

Embarrassing and infuriating. Hofstra is a good team but ffs I’m tired of these nail biter games from a veteran team. Completely lackadaisical down the stretch and a blown opportunity heading into a10 play.

 

[PASpider]

And there it is. Every year we lose a game we shouldn’t at the beginning of the season. 2 rebounds for Grant? Smh

 

[Eight Legger]

Can't play against the zone. Can't make free throws. Can't defend hot shooters. Is it 2012-18 again?

 

[PhillySpider]

Brutal

the old/bad Mooney team strikes again. Totally flat against an inferior team, Zone defense gives us fits, out rebounded as ever, FT shooting bad, defense is awful, go from up 9 to down in about 3-4 minutes, no adjustments etc.

The 3 terrible halves foreshadowed this. The anomalies at the moment are the good halves!

Our OOC resume is piss poor at this point. No good wins and a bad loss and a schedule that doesn't look too good. We better win the A-10 tourney because anything less than like 16-2 in conference means no dance for us at this point.
