Box and Won Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Crawford comes in and scores. Glad he sat the last 15 mins Baffling. But not surprising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billikenbill Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 73-65 final. Battled but just not a smart team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slu72 Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Alright, you got Bartley hot as a firecracker last night. Don't you think you would have set up some plays to get him wide open early in the game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnbj14 Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 But doesn't Spain have some decent players? A few played in the NBA, I think. You guys over there should scout their national team.Basketball is, at best, an second-tier sport here. Unfortunately it plays second fiddle to soccer which is incredibly dominant. Even more so than the NFL. I believe there could be a way for us to better utilise the fact we have a school over here to recruit internationally, but it would require some planning by the AD that I don't believe they could properly handle.

Pistol Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Well, that's it. 73-65, and that should be the end of the Crews Era. Back to back 11-21 seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davidnark Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 What these games told me is that guys on the roster with the raw talent to compete at this level are not the same guys who have the effort and mindset to compete at this level. This is why we ended up playing the older starting five so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobillsgo Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 There's some talent on this team, no question. Just need a coach who can identify a core 7 or 8 and knows how to use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franchise_08 Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 4 players touch the ball 1st until the 90% FT shooter gets it and we foul. Not very smart or well coached. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slu72 Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 The Gasol brothers are from Spain. Beautiful, let's find out if they got some younger brothers, cousins, nephews, friends of the family, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnbj14 Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Continuing my post above, there are very good Spanish players. I just don't think we look at them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Metzinger Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Frustrating, but a valiant effort for a team basically playing a freelance system of basketball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbofive Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 i feel like crews basically just throws every possible combination of players out there hoping to find that magic 5 that he can play 37 minutes per game for an entire season. just completely run them into the ground so that just in case we ever make the NCAA tourney again, we can get shellacked because they're all injured and gassed. doesn't matter, though, i expect his ass to be FIRED tomorrow. don't let the door hit ya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slu72 Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 We got beat by a Dane, an Argentine, a Jap, and I'm sure there was a Martian in there somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billiken Rich Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 And our long national nightmare is over. Crews succeeded where Brad did not and turned me apathetic about Billiken Basketball. After last year, I believed that we had talent and I believed that someone with the experience Crews had would have a freaking plan. Obviously recruiting misses, ridiculous substitution patterns, and horrific time management, show that there is no plan, and the inmates are running the asylum. For next year I'm back to my initial reaction to Jim Crews which is: ABC Anybody But Crews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBFan Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 I will be checking hourly tomorrow for the Jim Crews firing or retiring. It will be Friday it is the best day to fire someone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
