Game Day!!!

[Bulldog01]

Blind man knews they can't stop Shaq or handle us in paint. PagingMick JJ and Rubles!!!

These types of teams are tough to come back against, UC needs to get the game under control early in the second half. If they are pressing and over helping late in the game, Harvard will blow them out.

 

[Bulldog01]

If we attack its obvious only thing they can do is foul us every time. Come on UC attack attack attack....

Yes, these first 5 minutes are crucial. 3 senior leaders in that locker room I expect a different half

 

[Bulldog01]

Gotta play Sanders on their shooter...

Agree 100%

They just dropped 1.2 PPP that half. I'm stuck listening on the radio, but it sure seems like everything is an open 3 or dunk/layup. Without watching it's hard for me to know who is at fault, but our defense must be atrocious today. I guess it's a good thing we're not turning the ball over or we'd be down 15+.

Disappointing performance so far but still 20 minutes....

Rubles nor Jackson has played well since senior night. I'm not sure what happened to those guys.

 

[Bulldog01]

I keep trying have faith that Guyn will get hungry and aggressive but it clear he's too soft and non chalant. Might have play Caupain 17+ min in 2nd half.

They are making Rubles and Jackson look very bad. We keep over helping and they are just passing around us.

Justin Jackson has been overhelping on the ball screens and that leaves a 2 on 1 around the rim. They've had 2 monster dunks and another few uncontested lay-ups. Defensively, it has been on him IMO.

I said the key to this game was not to overhelp. If UC would just play sound defense Harvard would have a very hard time scoring.

 

[Nayers]

if They continue to shoot this well it will be a little tougher to take control of the game. Stop overplaying on d as a few have already said. Jackson switching on that high ball screen when not necessary is leaving rubles under the bus because harvard will expose that mistake everytime. Can't expect TR to cover two people down low. We are okay, i don't think they can keep this shooting performance up. We'll see. Seniors rise up and lead ! And find a way for johnson to be on the floor mick. He's a creator and another 3 ball threat. Don't panic ya'll. We came from behind against a few higher caliber teams this year.

Too many risks on deflections in passing lanes leading to open guys.

cats have missed a ton of make able shots. JJ and Rubles need to pick it up n 2nd half.

Yeah, I had a similar fear. I didn't think they'd blitz the ball screen on Chambers like they have. They should just play it straight up, while he is a tough player...I'll take my chance with Chambers shooting jumpers rather than the front court guys getting dunks/layups.

problem is that overhelping is UC's mantra. It's the reason UC always struggles against good passing teams. They make you pay for over helping.

 

[Bearcat_NTS]

Well, potentially 20 minutes left in the season. Got to leave it all on the court or go home early and tarnish an otherwise great season.

Agreed, but it doesn't mean you can't make an adjustment. Typically they play better in the second half. Looks like they'll need it.

This team is so stupid
