Providence game thread

Pathetic. Even if we squeeze one out. Pathetic

Sloppy, careless , lazy defense. Swain can't stay in front of anybody. I don't understand how he is considered a good defensive player? Every game his man blows by him all game. We are a very shakey team.

[Kevin Reilly]

Swain's guy with another lay up . Pitiful. Whoops he just gave up another lay up.

[connecticut72]

Maybe the worst 15 minutes of defense in the history of NCAA men’s basketball

[Kevin Reilly]

Swain just gave up his third lay up in the last two minutes. Terrible.

[Kevin Reilly]

Make that fourth lay up Swain has given up.. Unreal

Maybe Maddux is channeling his inner Lionel Chalmers.Ok I'm grasping here but he is playing his best ball.Makes you wonder where this has been .I'd rather put the ball in his hands than McKnight.All you can say is it was a win they had to have

[skyhops]

McKnight has turned into a slow footed, no confidence, poor shooting PG. For some reason Miller loves him, but Maddox should have been starting ahead of him games ago. Miller complains about Maddox’s defense but his offense more than makes up for it plus McKnight has been worse on defense.

probably the worst i've felt after a win in a long time. i'm not saying that once you're up 25 that you're gonna win by 40. that doesn't usually happen. Providence wasn't giving up. but that was just a pathetic display on both sides of the ball from that 25 point lead on. luckily they stink at FT's and we don't.

Conwell is like Stanley Burrell 2.0 (not his senior year when he decided to actually GUARD). McKnight shows up early in each half, usually scoring some kind of pull up mid-range game, getting us to think "oh, maybe he will have a breakout game here..." then literally disappears. Freemantle and Swain can't keep anyone in front of them - not that I ever think Free can because he's always been a defensive liability. how do we let that Meda dude just drive to the hoop every time? unreal.

not a great feeling to have after a win.

the only one playing confident is Maddox. that's it.
