Oops

Fleck and Pitino must have attended the same seminar on running out the clock way too early.

St Louis is good at basketball.

pitino didn’t call for Gabe to pass up an open 3 and travel.

Press problems are because Carr dribbles too much and his help runs away from him. You learn in HS that your help needs to stay even with you or behind you in the backcourts to make an easier pass when you get trapped. But this certainly IS a coaching point.

Maybe he will come back next year to work on this....

Gabe still not at the stage where he can do two nice things in a row, but still...nice to see that 3.

Taught by Mike Zimmer....

Collins has fouled out

Agreed. Gabe’s best game this year has been tonight.

I had no issues with that set. I was more referring to the part before that where Carr dribbled the ball for 15 seconds at the half court circle.

Facing this press and high pressure D is definitely good experience for our squad

Not used to better ball movement tonight, I guess

Ive watched the entire game and all of their guys seem interchangeable. Enjoyable team to watch.

Right. But if you get a good look out of it that is fine. Gabe blew it.

 

[Tully55]

All about FTs now

 

[stocker08]

lol!? How wasn't that a charge?

 

[jblass]

Good grief, nice rebound then stupid pass.

Goodwin has 21...

 

[WhoFellDownTheGopherHole?]

Regardless what I think about the coach, it's nice to see the kids look like they've had some purpose in them again tonight.

 

[howeda7]

So many awful turnovers.

 

[Gopherbbdude]

Press breakdown the Center of the court!!!

It's like we've never practiced against it once....

French has also fouled out...

[Some guy]

I didn’t realize St Louis was 25th in kenpom

it’s early but they aren’t going to lose a ton in the conference Portion of their schedule I wouldn’t think

 

[Moonlight]

It's like we've never practiced against it once....

They’ve got a hell of a press

 

[stocker08]

The refs aren't very good. There have been several fouls uncalled during the Saint Louis press. That shooting foul on Carr probably wasn't a foul.

Maybe they're actually umps.

 

[howeda7]

This last 2:30 is going to take a half hour at this pace.

 

[UpAndUnder43]

Goodwin has 21...

Im not saying they aren’t good. Just similar sizes and roles

 

[GringaGopher]

Trent Tucker has been less of a Homer than most - e.g. Dan Dakich.
