Reminded me of DePaul BET.Worst loss of Sha’s tenure?
Turnover on an inbound after a timeout.![]()
Why would you have clark out there when you can have mike Williams?Why was Clark not on the floor to end the game?
The team is too sloppy with the ball. Constantly. It gets you to a .500 team or worse. This high ranking defense has got us at a losing record in this weak league.Full melt. Odds of losing that game up 6 late were basically microscopic. Get a stop and it’s over. Grab a rebound and it’s over. Make an inbounds pass and it’s over. Make a free throw and it’s over.
I guess the cardiac comebacks were bound to even out eventually. Shame.
Biggest mistake was taking Fisher out. Was playing inspired, hit a 3, made his free throws and then pulled him out for Fisher and Creighton gets offensive rebound.Total collapse. Game should have been over with a minute to go. Clark has a bad habit missing his first FT. Parker’s FT was down then out. AJ stepping on the line was awful not to mention fouling a three pt shooter? Gotta inbound that ball there after a timeout.
Anyone have any idea why Clark wasn’t in at the end?
Also Williams played terrible D on three point shots in the first half and I thought Fisher was playing great. Sha subbing Williams for Fisher there was puzzling and of course Williams gives up the three?
Complete collapse. The more I watch AJ the more I believe he’s not a kid with good basketball IQ.
The Book hasn’t posted the odds yet, but they won’t favor SH.Up 10 w 3 min and up 7 w 99 sec. Just dont screw it up. Talent wins, we just dont have it. Just hooe budd and hines come back
0/4 feels like a screw upDidn't Sha say that this is too important to screw up? Well guess what, this is all screwed up--
The fact that She didn't do his post game interview with Popkin is pathetic and pisses me off. Be a man and face questions after you and your team blew a must win game
Didn't do nova post game eitherThat's how he operates. He thinks he's big time, but what he really is, is a coward and a poor basketball coach. Massive, massive ego.
That sub of Williams for Fisher was strategy to get a much better Free throw shooter and ball handler in the game given that the Blue Jays were going to be fouling. It made perfect sense, Did it work out NO. But every coach in the country would make that move at that point of the game.Total collapse. Game should have been over with a minute to go.

My gripe was why Clark was out. We ended the game with Parker, Williams, Simpkins, Staton-McCray, Payne.That sub of Williams for Fisher was strategy to get a much better Free throw shooter in the game given that the Blue Jays were going to be fouling.

You’d think you’d want your lead ball handler and tenacious defender on the floor but what do I know. Yet we ended with the backup who froze and the team failing to call a timeout, not to mention an inability to stay in front of the shooters.Agree not understanding why Clark was not in the game. Sha needs to explain that. Watching some of the huddles during the game it almost appeared like there was some arguing with Sha by some of the players. I may be wrong but the body language was there.
I don't agree shu67. Fisher may not have played good defense in the first half. Have to watch a replay. I'm not for taking guys off the court that are playing well in that game. Fisher was playing at a higher level for him. In other games Sha keeps guys on the floor that are doing well, Rivera being a case in point. You can add Hines to the equation too. Fisher may have missed an important free throw. How many points can you make the argument that Mike was responsible for or was part of allowing? In addition, why does it have to be on the court or saddled to the bench. If he wanted to use Williams, then why keep him off the court for a long time and then put him in at crunch time? Could have gone offense defense with Hines and Payne too. Some Monday morning QB from us I do agree with you.That sub of Williams for Fisher was strategy to get a much better Free throw shooter and ball handler in the game given that the Blue Jays were going to be fouling.

The assistant coach Lowery said they were calling it? Who knows. We panicked.Why not at least call a time out when creighton hit that go ahead 3
You had 2.5 secs
Not a good job of awareness by the coaching staff
Still it all came down to making free throws by guys who are decent at it. They make them we win even with all the miss plays in the last 30 seconds.You’d think you’d want your lead ball handler and tenacious defender on the floor but what do I know.

Good points but it is easy second guessing the results. If we made the free throws there would be a different outcome and different posts!I don't agree shu67.

The FT shooting on this team is very inconsistent game to game. While we’re average overall, it’s been terrible in BE play where we’re 9th/11 teams at just over 69%.Still it all came down to making free throws by guys who are decent at it. They make them we win even with all the miss plays in the last 30 seconds.
