billikenbill Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 We're 14-23 from the line, they're 18-25, there's the ballgame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zink Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 We played pretty well until the end there. Absolutely horrendous last couple minutes of offensive possessions. Ford really needs to rethink his end game strategy. This game was very winnable. Schasz likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EssEllYou Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 That bad foul call against Foreman, and no technical foul against Bess wins the game. Or, SLU could just break 40% FG or hit 70% FT. Is that asking too much? Smh. Zink likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiseOfTheBillikens Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Fuoking shot clock. Honestly so aggrivating. That possession Thatch got swatted probably goes so different with the shot clock. We had it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although French came out of a timeout there at the end and was on the wrong side of the court. Bess has to push him out of the way. I wonder how much of the problem is the planning and how much is in the execution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

almaman Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 that technical killed our momentum. up 35-29. and then they get 4 points because of that T. SouthSide_Billiken, EssEllYou and gobillsgo like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballingmeanthegradesfallin Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 We would lose the game regardless of whether something did or didn't happen. At least, we are more focused on the mental aspects of the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe_davola Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 At this point, there is zero margin for error. Given our horrendous shooting and horrible free throw shooting, I'm not feeling too confident we can be perfect the rest of the way. We played hard and played fairly well, but unfortunately this was a must win in my book. Can't expect us to not have another mis step the rest of the way realistically.

Billy Ken Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Can Jim Crews be hired back as a free throw shooting consultant/coach? Team is going no where if this area doesn’t improve. Makes me nervous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moytoy12 Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Coaching let us down at the end. Pound it inside to Gordon and try to get an and 1. That possession was horrible and on Ford. slufan13, Billy Ken and gobillsgo like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Ken Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Ford career coaching record 314-265 Majerus coaching record 517-217 Read that and think about that next time AD is even mentioning Ford and Majerus in any way. I like Ford but the sloppy play and poor shooting is very concerning. This was a bad loss, but I think they will be ok. I hope! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slufan13 Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Why did we go for the 3 with 25 secs left? The only people who touched the ball on the possession were our seniors. It's either terrible coaching or terrible plays by our senior leaders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiseOfTheBillikens Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Ford can't go out and run the plays and make shots. This whole thing about Ford being the reason we lose these games need to stop. It's incredibly stupid and unfair.
