Jesus one awful call can quickly shift a game.

Markus called for kicking his leg off defender(He still shouldn't do that) but theres no contact. HIs 3 doesnt count(coulda been an And 1). INstead of up 5 or 6 we get an early foul on Markus and Gtown goes on 8-2 run.

Luckily its still early and we just went on a run right back but that shit should be reviewable if everything else appears to be these days.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

And now Markus has 2 fouls with 5 left in the half.

Awful officiating.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

I don't understand why every year no matter how good or bad our team or defense is, teams black out from 3 at home.

That fucking Turk was 1/7 for the year from 3. Hes 2 for 2 both swishes. Their back up big who I have never even heard of is 2 for 2 on turn around fades. Unreal.

Up 6 tho with foul trouble. Shame McEwen is worse than Michael Hurt. Could be up 12

Markus #BLESSED.

Huge win. Needed it. Quad 1.

McClung is such a punchable bitch. Sweet karma that his egregious flop was rewarded with a missed free throw. Awful officiating letting the Turk go over the back all game but we rebounded through it.

If Koby McEwen was even half the player I thought wed be getting, wed actually be really good. Man is ice at the line in the clutch tho.

Good win.

G'town tough at home.

Butler may start tailspinning, have a tough sched coming up. Not sure if that's good or bad.

Still no clear worst team.

Butler was definitely overrated so a couple losses were bound to happen.

This is a punching bag free league. Even tho it would be more beneficial if a few teams took on that role

Yup.

LMAO, @DePaul being a Quad 1 win/loss.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Nova and SHU should both end up in top 10 with the massacre this week.

DePaul tied for the 2nd most Q1 wins in the Big East with Creighton. Seton Hall 6-3 against Q1 is super impressive.

If they can get to .500 in BE play, they're in.

Yeah for sure. Would be pretty easily in at that point.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

This is fucking embarrassing. Worse than Providence.

St Johns suicide style of defense has us open for 3 every possession. Start rolling up 14.

We start doing trick bounce passes every possession and 14 is down to 2 in like 4 minutes.

Fucking pathetic.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Wins a win. Now we pray that we can win 1 of the next 2 on the road aka Xavier.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Koby McEwen is a POS. We'd be a legit top 15 team if he was half of what we thought we were getting.

And Wojo keeps playing him

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Refs letting the home crowd dictate this half.

Jordan got T'd up to end the 1st and the sell out crowd has booed all half. Been some criminal calls.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

That was absolutely embarrasing

Fucking threw away a huge win.

Idiotic down the stretch.

 

[jontaejones]

Interesting strategy to foul on purpose tie game, but you never foul Baldwin...

This is pathetic.

Markus wore down and Baldwin ate us alive. Just a collapse.

He also pushes off literally every shot but whatever, we lost it.

Howard this year has been doing less of the bombs away, trying to get his mates involved, but he really regressed today.

It looked like Howard at the end of the year last year.

fwiw, McEwen wasn't very good his sophomore season @ Utah State. Only shot 40% from the field and had a poor assist to TO ratio. That is pretty bad for a guy that played against mid-major competition for the most of the season.

he was pretty good his freshman year though, so his regression is pretty interesting
