Worst officiating I’ve ever seen. Wtf was that

 

[Redbird82]

9 points in 9 minutes. We need to bottle Pedon’s pregame speeches

Or maybe the players just need to stop turning the damn ball over?

I think we see a bounce back game today. Guys will be locked in from the start.

One shot passed up by us early. Too many turnovers so far. When a shooter is open from 3 we’re not passing it to him

While I was being sarcastic in my response to 86, your response does beg the question: how would you address the problem of a group of guys who just don’t seem motivated to start games with the right attitude?have them play solid defense and just run/open gym style offensive for the first 3 possessions to get their juices flowing

 

[The Beak]

That was pretty

 

[Redbird Alum 2004]

I like Poindexter. I wish he would shoot more but he is a steady heady player.

 

[SlackBooDom]

6 fouls / 7 turnovers in 10 minutes. Can’t win games like that.

 

[Redbird222]

Evansville is slow to get back .... we need to push the ball and there are open shots immediately in the half court

 

[Matt Hein Fan]

Need to keep on getting to the basket and drawing fouls. We have the personnel to do it all day against a team like Evansville.

FTs are the difference in the game to far

 

[Adunk33]

7 of the team’s 18 points are from the freethrow line….Top 10 team in the country in FT%…have a game plan to get to the line.

Malachi’s pass to I think a rolling Sissoko was beautiful.

 

[Matt Hein Fan]

Petrakis getting bullied on D. When he isn’t making shots and he hasn’t been since first couple games, he really isn’t adding much on floor.

 

[Aggie]

Just don’t understand it. You are 6’10” tall heave up a three pointer, do not follow your shot for an easy rebound, but just retreat up the floor? Why???

 

[Bird Friend]

McChesney needs to assert himself.

McCheese has been awful, awful, awful so far.

 

[Bird Friend]

Dribbling thru traffic is one our best assets for our opponents. Arrrrrgggggghhhhhh.

 

[Bird Friend]

Chance to put them away . . . and we become Turnover City. Allow ‘em back in to the game.

 

[Adunk33]

Terrible final couple minutes. Birds should be up double digits. Evansville is terrible.

 

[Bird Friend]

4 turnovers in first 4 minutes. 5 turnovers last 4 minutes, 2 in last 33 seconds. VALUE the damn ball!

 

[Adunk33]

I’d like to see Schmitt over Joe P and Kotov. The offense seemed to flow a bit while he was out there. He rolls to the basket after setting a pick instead of popping. I like that from him.

 

[Redbird222]

13 turnovers ....ugh

Is it just me but does it seem like our team is sliding all over the place and loosingvtheir footage
