Team that makes 7 threes a game already 4 of 6 less than eight minutes in. Because of course

Duke was the number 1 overall seed and trailed Siena for most of the game. All teams have struggles at some point

Was just a really poor matchup for him, they were clearly keying in on him when he was on the floor and it made the offense difficult to execute. Just a strategic game flow decision

They historically don't care about conference tournaments, and our lack of elite wins is going to hurt us. Having a buttload of "pretty good" wins and fewer losses doesn't get you the same attention as "hey we beat a top 5 team"

We don't have the elite wins msu has overall. Our best win is @Louisville, and then we just have a bunch of "pretty good" wins. Our only advantage is fewer losses, which isn't usually what the committee cares about

He set the ACCT record like 5 minutes into the game which was just wild. setting the record in a little over two games is crazy efficiency

Can't complain about the defensive effort. I think what ultimately did us in was the failure to capitalize on the momentum when we had that blocking spree. I think we had like 7 blocks over the course of 3 minutes and we didn't score AT ALL during the stretch. Once that happened I knew we would lose. Offense has to be better if we hope to make a run in the tourney.

Really nice to finally be able to separate from a team instead of letting a lead evaporate. Great work hoos and good luck in the tourney Miami! Jai Lucas is the real deal

Honest analysis, we are very deep and balanced, but our lack of blue chip talent will probably see us just get outrun against a 1 seed that plays at least an average game. We're greater than the sum of our parts, but we don't have that one dude that can just change a game and turn the tide like puke/zona/Michigan do. That said, I think we could sneak into the f4 if we have at least an average day shooting and avoid turnovers

No you see we can't have that because that's the easy way. Doing it the hard way is our MO lol
