Miami/Wake Forest Jan 6 Game Thread

Have to give the team credit for fighting through everything but we handed WF that win.

Cleveland is no Miller

Wake team is *** but they are a bad match up for us as anyone with 2 big players will be. Still should have beat them. Refs didnt do us any favors either

 

[IncaneInTheBrain]

Cleveland is no Miller

Not quite strong enough to fill that role

 

[LongIslandCane]

Still blows my mind how much this team doesn't want to go to the foul line, literally #3 in the country and we would rather chuck 3's then bring it down low

 

[anr96]

Joseph makes his missed free throws, George plays less sloppy, or Cleveland makes the last shot. All things that could’ve ended with us winning.

 

[AtlAtty]

I need to be critical when appropriate. Coach L should have called a timeout before the travel call on Cleveland in regulation.
We had 2 TO’s left, the lead, and less than 40 seconds in the game and Cleveland was in trouble, regardless of whether he slid his left foot.

****. Would’ve been real nice to be 3-0 and get Q1 win on the road. Would’ve also been a big statement to go 2-0 this week without Poplar. Oh well. This game isn’t gonna move the needle much either way come Selection Sunday.

Could have won it in regulation and then took a 5 point lead early in OT a blew it. Would have been a quality road win

 

[IncaneInTheBrain]

Bad loss

 

[Shooter McGavin]

Can’t be mad with a road overtime loss against a good team without Poplar.

 

[ewcanes]

Needed to get points off that turnover after the review, shooting a 3 wasn’t the play.

 

[canes518]

Hoping they learn from a game like this for when it really matters

 

[scane]

That’s a tough one. Should have had it a couple times, but I feel a lot better about this team than I did a week ago.

 

[go_canes_17]

Meh. Great fight from team, good game. Was always a tough task to go on the road and beat a good Wake team without Wooga. Should’ve won, lapses in OT. We’ll be okay.

 

[Wildnation]

16 offensive rebounds if you wonder why they lost, inexcusable. Don’t want to hear we’re too small in the presser either, could have gotten more size like every other team.

 

[numbers]

That sucks, but not a bad week being down a starter.

 

[Canedude08]

Tough loss, Miami had a chance to steal it, just couldn't get it done. On to the next, hopefully everyone that got nicked up this game is okay long term, and hopefully Miami can put this one behind them, take care of business against Louisville and be prepared for next weekend against VT.

Never should have come to that. Choked it down the stretch twice. And had two other possessions to win or take the lead and blew those...the lack of rebounding is pitiful. I know they're undersized but sometimes I watch and the effort to box out isn't there at all

 

[jkdood]

probably easy win if we had wooga instead of 1 for 9 joseph (3 assists) ...still, had chances and sorta choked, and Zebra'd
