This is the type of game that seems to cause many people to forget things simply because we won. If anything, this game really underscores the problems this team faces. Without Joe going off in the first half (which never happens) this could easily have been a loss to a 1-9 team missing two of its best players, one of them being a 40% three-point shooter.
This was a team that we absolutely destroyed a few weeks ago that came into Saturday with 7 scholarship players and two less important pieces yet they were within one possession of beating us in the Dome! I hope we can pull off a miracle on Wednesday but I doubt it. The biggest problem on this team is our slow guards on defense. Any team that knows how to swing the ball around the zone until they find an open shooter will destroy us. I fear that that will happen with Louisville and their stud point guard.

Agreed. We didn’t play well. We obliterated them the first time we played them, and should have again because they had even fewer players. The writing is on the wall... we’re just not a very good team. The only teams we can contend with are finesse/less physical teams. We’re weak at every position except Quincy. That’s not a recipe for success.

Yeah can’t take much from this game. I liked #1 on BC a lot actually. Bouncy athlete with some strength. Both teams looked like mid-major squads frankly. Joe had a nice 1H. They played a little too much ISO ball all game. I was at a bar here in Cleveland sans sound but did JBA headbutt the BC dude during that little skirmish? Sure looked like it to me. I’ll be surprised if they beat Louisville.

I do not think this makes anyone forgot about our issues. Some games in college basketball specifically in conference are ugly and you just have to win. This was one. Of course it should not change anyone's perception for better or worse.

I thought there was more going on. Quincy intentionally put his elbow into the dude's face while trying to represent to the ref that his hands were up innocently. Not sure what preceded that, though. I assumed it was just position jostling.
