The shot with 6 seconds to go wasn't much better, Pegues was double teamed, everybody in the house knew who had to take it.Dins&Heels wrote: ↑Wed Feb 21, 2024 9:52 pmYep, with 2.9 sec there’s opportunity for a better final play than that…with or without a timeout.
Foster has to be much better...I wonder if his knee is giving him trouble...looked like he was limited in his movement off the ball..he is our second best scorer and disappeared last night. I know he was well defended tho...Jasper wrote: ↑Wed Feb 21, 2024 10:50 pmToo much to ask of Pegues. He can’t do it by himself. Foster disappears in too many games. Smith is not the shooter or ball handler we were led to belief. 2 of 9 tells me you should not be taking the 9. We are a better team with Whitt. Weakest Furman team at guard in recent years. Any of those non playing freshman guards? Another give away game in a season of them. Wasted a pretty good defensive effort. samford is still OVERRATED
What a good article here...I feel one of the problems is when we play a team with 10-12 players rotating in and out we dont have enough depth..the team gets tired and then misses shots. They have a lot of players and go 100 percent almost the whole game. We are not used to having to play against the press all the time and it showed last night. We did not shoot well and at that pace it is hard to shoot well. Legs get tired..When we beat them earlier we shot better and we were home as well. Having an extra good shooter that is physical will help when we play them again...we need Williams!!FurmanATT wrote: ↑Wed Feb 21, 2024 11:58 pmFurman has dropped some heartbreakers this season. -- MD

Not to argue but we never see a team rotating 10-12 players in and out. Even last night SU played 10 but 2 of those played less than 10 minutes. I looked at our last 5 games and no one played over 10 players and 7-8 players got the vast majority of minutes in every game, so our oppnents are doing the same as FU using 7-8 players.jesse174 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 22, 2024 6:01 pmWhat a good article here...I feel one of the problems is when we play a team with 10-12 players rotating in and out we dont have enough depth..the team gets tired and then misses shots.

Learnig from these mistakes is critical going forwardapaladin wrote: ↑Fri Feb 23, 2024 3:18 amFinally got around to watching the replay as I didn’t see it live. Did not realize JP scored FU’s last 23 points in less than 7 minutes. He scored 27 of the last 29. When he hit his last 3 to put us up 70-67 he wasn’t even on the screen he was so far out. What a performane. A shame it wasn’t rewarded with a W. That last 40 seconds was hard to watch. Really don’t understand why you have the shortest guy inbounding the ball. A plethera of mistakes that last 40 seconds. I’m not saying anything about the refs. We got a good idea what Timmons will look like seating wise. Looks like they had about 10-11 rows which is what Timmons will have according to renderings.
