Good fight to the end . . . unfortunate Petrakis' shot didn't go. That said, we lost this one more than got beat. Way too many mistakes like trying to force a bucket in traffic with every teammate wide open for a shot, or not being aware of defenders and getting stripped in the lane . . .

Coulda, shoulda won . . .

Bad luck and Pollard. A lethal combination. Double foul was ridiculous and so was our three point shooting. We were too content to hoist off balance threes when the inside game/penetration was working. Heartbreaking

Petrakis just made his first 3 since November 22nd in the Islands vs Western Kentucky.
And then a game tying 3 was called for him

Yep I’ve been saying it all year. This team either does not see the floor or just play selfish. Everybody eat if the ball is shared properly. We continue to beat ourselves. To me there is a lack of collective basketball IQ.

McChesney and Lewis combined:
0 points
8 fouls
3 turnovers
its hard to win with those numbers.

Look, the two guys that I think you are directing the lack of basketball iq are the only two players on this team that can attack the basket off the dribble and actually make buckets in the paint. And they were the reason we were in this game with a chance to win. We have to take the good with the bad with them.
