Potential Hook and hold on Reid

Thanks

 

[SDakaGordie]

Was the foul on Hall or Reed

Not a chance that was a hook.

 

[TheC]

Quit fouling!!!

 

[TheC]

If we lose it may be becauseof all the missed free throws.

 

[SDakaGordie]

Need to run the offense through Nick.

 

[CappyNU]

I will never understand what makes refs decide to call games so differently from one half to the next. 26 fouls this half with 4 minutes to go vs 18 fouls in the entire first half.

Amazing we can't take advantage of their best guy out

The officials have really taken all of the rhythm out of what had been a great game.

 

[TheC]

Page and Reed are playing hero ball and it's not working

It's so frustrating.

 

[SDakaGordie]

Man, I wish guys couldn’t take 3 steps before setting themselves for a 3.

 

[ThatadultfromHolland]

Reid is pretty good at selling fouls

 

[CappyNU]

Then again, now Mallory is out, so...go refs?

 

[TheC]

Why can't we grab a rebound??!

 

[phatcat_rivals223240]

Sigh...rebounding

 

[bringbacktherantboard]

And NOW the refs swallow their whistles. Martinelli was mugged on that rebound.

 

[zbag51]

Need a stop here

 

[cat inkansas]

Reid is pretty good at selling fouls

But he has to make the shots.

 

[HawkCat]

That was utter BS.

 

[TheC]

Now they call a rebounding foul???

 

[CappyNU]

Absurdity

 

[TheC]

Thats the play??

 

[phatcat_rivals223240]

Nick is invisible tonight. Killed us

 

[bringbacktherantboard]

Awful foul.

 

[TheC]

Disappointing

 

[Deeringfish]

I feel like Mart has been forcing his shot.

 

[cat inkansas]

Awful foul.

Why is Page 20 feet from the basket?

 

[HawkCat]

Possibly Nick’s worst game ever.

 

[CappyNU]

What a crappy way to end this game.

 

[TejasCat]

When was our last made basket?

 

[HawkCat]

We definitely deserved this loss. UVA exposed a lot of weaknesses.

 

[Deeringfish]

Possibly Nick’s worst game ever.

His shots seem flat.

 

[SDakaGordie]

Bottom line, our defense is not good enough….yet.

 

[CappyNU]

When was our last made basket?

Reid layup with 8 minutes to go. 0-9 since until that made 3.

 

[bringbacktherantboard]

Possibly Nick’s worst game ever.

He played better in the 2nd half (that shot he just missed notwithstanding). Other players stepped up, in part due to the defensive attention that Martinelli draws away from them. He had a very nice block this half, too. It wasn't Martinelli's best game, but I'm not going to blame him for the loss.

 

[AdamOnFirst]

This game was 100% lost on the glass with an assist for bad free throw shooting.

He just missed a bunch of herky jerky shots he usually makes most of. Frusterating and could have won with a different result but nothing really to do about it, sometimes they just don't fall.

 

[CappyNU]

50 fouls called in the game...what are we doing here?

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Disappointing, but this UVA team is genuinely good, just a close loss, lets go win the next two!

21 offensive rebounds and 36 free throws per espn. Hard to beat that.
