Syracuse Game Thread 11/21/2022

[whampas]

One shot to win

 

[AnnapSpider]

What does Nelson think, he has 10 minutes to set-up a play.

 

[SpiderVol]

they’ve scored 1 point in the last 5.5 mins but he still has 3 TO’s with less than 20 secs left.

You think using a couple of those to run a designed play could have been helpful. Jeez.

 

[Gallipoli]

63 63, with 17 seconds left.

 

[ncspiderfan]

Someone make a play.

What you said.

 

[Gallipoli]

We have a good team, but it is not as experienced.

 

[SpiderVol]

We should be at the line icing this game. Hope they pull it out, but terrible coaching and execution in the last 6 mins.

 

[I-M-UR]

We have a good team, but it is not as experienced.

We’re loaded with seniors

 

[Gallipoli]

OT ...

 

[SpiderRick]

Why does Mooney always insist on going into the basketball equivalent of the “prevent” on offense. Milks the clock and leaves us with no good shots.

You go up 5 with 6 mins to go and can’t score for 5 mins. Keep doing the same f&cking things thst got you there instead of this crap.

This is just terrible coaching right now.

I feel you're frustration, but I mean really, this is just Mooney being Mooney. No surprise here.

 

[Spider2020]

I’m glad coach drew up a good play after that timeout. Can we take our extra timeouts to OT?

 

[whampas]

Are you kidding me. The worst.

 

[fan2011]

Overtime again, this team is killing me!

 

[SpiderVol]

Cuss will pull OT out by 10 now.

They had their shot and never took it.

 

[Gallipoli]

We’re loaded with seniors

Bigelow, Roche, Nelson and Quin are not Seniores.

 

[ur2K]

Good thing we finished regulation with 2 timeouts in our pocket.

Also now the 2nd game in a row with Quinn doing something really odd on the last play of regulation. What happened there?

 

[whampas]

When you play to not lose, You do.

 

[PhillySpider]

Brutal to watch - - and Syracuse doesn't look like much of a threat to make the tourney either.

Also a weird game for us. We are outrebounding them comfortably, but have turned it over way more than them. Thats backwards of normal.

But the zone offense is just brutal!

 

[I-M-UR]

I know Mooney is here for awhile but then find an assistant who can take over in game coaching. This is ridiculous

 

[Spider2020]

Gustavson is killing us

 

[whampas]

You'd think after Charleston he wouldn't do that.

 

[PhillySpider]

All of our bad problems here tonight. Gave up key rebounds, foul a three point shooter, shot clock violations against zone, terrible last shot execution.

Yet we are still right there

 

[SpiderVol]

Bigelow, Roche, Nelson and Quin are not Seniores.

Actually Quinn and Bigelow are seniors.

We have st least 6 scholarship players who are seniors:

Burton, Grace, Goose, Crabtree, Quinn and Bigelow. Some may have another year of eligibility due to COVID year but these guys have been in programs for 4-5 years now.

 

[whampas]

Nelson needs to sit.

 

[I-M-UR]

Good grief.

 

[PhillySpider]

How is it possible to be this clueless on offense. Our spacing is terrible to start. We are easy to cover! And so slow in everything. The high screen comes and we just look at for a few seconds while they get over the top and set up help defense before we go. And we keep everyone wing or higher most of the time and their defense just rides us out. If we would occupy the corners at times, we'd get looks and also open up the wings some

 

[PASpider]

Does Nelson have pictures of Mooney? Just awful.

 

[flyder19]

WHERE IS ROCHE?!?

 

[spider23]

Tarrant coaches circles around these two morons.

 

[Spider2020]

WHERE IS ROCHE?!?

Mooney going with the offense-defense subs and then refusing to use a timeout to get his best shooter back on the floor

 

[spiders13]

Nelson has me screaming at my TV. WTF

 

[fatherspider]

Nothing surprising here… lose another close game that could have went eitherway but we make enough mistakes and miss enough shots to lose. Rinse and repeat

 

[Gallipoli]

Tarrant coaches circles around these two morons.

Tarrant destroyed Boeheim.

 

[I-M-UR]

We dribble away 14 sec every time down the floor

 

[URWilk110]

The only thing worse than watching Chris Mooney coach a game on TV is watching him coach a game from the 1st row. What a complete joke he is.

 

[Gospiders06]

Wow. We are just terrible. Missed four attempts

 

[Spider2020]

Why did no one go back up with any of those offensive rebounds except Nelson, the smallest guy on the floor

 

[SpiderRick]

Well, when they needed him the most, Burton was awful. Let's hope this is his worst of the season.

 

[Ferrum Spider]

where the hell was that rebounding all game?

 

[ncspiderfan]

Well deserved loss
