Miami (+5.5) @ UVA 2/5 7PM

[Pentagon Cane]

Pretty ****** effort. Standing around on offense. Lazy defense.

This game had loss written all over it. Short turn from Saturday, after we limped to a win. We are not good enough to win these type of games.

 

[Southbeach44]

Need to get Omier out now. Cant pick up a cheap foul

UVA gets away with murder on defense. Hand checking, slapping, grabbing, bumping. Meanwhile Miami makes a good defensive play gets whistled

 

[jkdood]

I'd start the walkons and maybe the ballboy second half, couldnt be much worse. Thats if Coach L doesnt retire at halftime.

 

[Pentagon Cane]

I think George is NBA-bound. He seems to be moving around well enough to give it a go but is refusing. I think the NBA is on his mind. I can't blame him.

He was limping pretty significantly walking off at halftime. No way he can go.

 

[gacaneaddict]

Also they set moving screens on baseline all
Game, and it never gets called. Go zone some
Mix it up.

Couldn’t even get to 20 points in the first half? 7-25? Anyone saying it’s a rebuilding year fine, but I would expect much more even from a team going through that.

There’s a reason why UVA struggles in the NCAAT. Their style works in conference play because the refs allow it. Once you aren’t able to maul people, the packline is not effective and they’ve never been a great offensive team.

Maybe, maybe not. For him, not worth the risk.

 

[pcitycane]

pack has been extremely unlucky on the offensive side this year, and he is a liability on the defensive end. We need some help.

 

[numbers]

We just don't have enough guys that can handle the ball and beat someone off the dribble to create a shot for someone else when the defense helps.

 

[Miami04]

One half to go but it is looking like UNC is a must win or the season is over.

 

[canes_aaron]

Disappointing to watch tbh. Got spoiled the last few years.

 

[skydogcane6]

I understand criticism of L, but how much of this is just guys playing selfish iso ball? “More guards than Shawshank” only works when you play as a team. Fast, dynamic, smart

 

[Disgustipated]

of all the flaws of this team, not having 1 single PG on the roster is just a killer. Its not Pack's fault, he is doing the best he can but it **** tough to run a 4 or 5 out offense if only one guy can dribble on the floor. Joseph, Wooga and Cleveland are close your eyes scaring dribbling the ball

 

[gacaneaddict]

Of course the other thing is we lose a starter like every single game to a knee or ankle injury. That injuries have been awful this year, and it's like everyone takes a turn.

It kinda is Pack's fault, he wanted to play point because that was his only path to the NBA. That's the reason we didn't get another PG

 

[IncaneInTheBrain]

Launched 2 threes on one possession without the ball ever touching the paint

These dudes move on every single screen they set
