       Ford is a train wreck.   How do your players not know end of
       game situations and fouls ...time and score...etc...
       He’s very poor in game strategy .

       8 for 25. It wasn’t that. 10 for 32 from two.

       so if i watch the replay, those misses are going to be just
       behind the arc, after we worked the ball inside, and each hit
       the rim?  no traffic and landed square on feet?

       This game was all about UVM’s role players. For them to beat us
       by nearly double digits without anything from Lamb and with
       Smith saddled with foul trouble speaks volumes about their
       depth. Massive 16 points from Shungu. A near double double from
       Davis. A couple big threes in the first half by Powell. EDuncan
       with some daggers late. Even Patella played well. It feels like
       they made some big hustle plays, especially late. When Smith and
       Lamb were both out in the second half and Vermont still climbed
       back into the game, that’s when I started to get that ill
       feeling.
       We had some backbreaking turnovers. And got killed on the glass.
       Foreman’s last seven games ...
       Twos: 28 for 113 (.247)
       Threes: 16 for 63 (.254)
       We’ve seen him be much better and we need him. Hope he turns the
       corner soon.
       I do look forward to watching TPP and TSM in the future.
       This is one of those real tough times that can arrive in the
       season. Magically we are still in second place in the
       conference. Saturday is a must. Hartford, Albany, UMBC to close
       the season - 3, 4 and 5 in the current standings. How bad to we
       want it?
       Worth noting: If UMBC loses at Vermont Saturday and we manage to
       beat Maine, we are three games up on them with three to go, with
       the win over UVM trumping whatever they have in the secondary
       tiebreaker. Long story short, we’d clinch a first round game at
       home. Let’s check that off.

       I guess you say with your best player out and a little bit more
       of this and that, SBU pretty much right in that one until things
       went flat those final 10 mins. SBU simply missed a lot of open
       shots and layups. UMV probably feels the same. Oh well. Have to
       think this loss didn't sting SBU much and they have to be
       thinking if they can get Olaniyi back (even at 80% or so) they
       can get these guys if there's a next time.
       The way things shook out in AE play SBU still in 2nd, and seems
       everything from 2nd to 7th (although I would assume the UVM win
       will probably keep SBU on the upper end of any final ties no
       matter what) is still in play with four games left. How big are
       those four? How much do you fight to hold on to a home game or
       two in the tournament, or does it matter much?
       And, boy, as Checkmate noted, how UVM can pass the ball! Felt
       like half their buckets where spot-on interior passes (and
       bounce passes!) to open teammates. Something to see in this age
       of 3-ball and ESPN highlight dunks.

       Our passing was poor. Too much dribbling and shot selection was
       questionable use the clock just dont shoot with 20 seconds left
       on the clock.  Ford has alot of work to do with this team if
       they are going to competitive.

       Just got home.  Great crowd tonight and atmosphere, and a very
       entertaining game.  We hung with them for 35 minutes or so, and
       then UVM's lock down defense coupled with some dagger 3's from
       Duncan, was the difference.  Who would have thought that we'd
       lose a game when holding Lamb to 3 points?
       Garcia was excellent on both ends of the court.  Really locked
       up Lamb; his physicality was just too much for Lamb.  Really
       starting to become a TSM fan.  He played excellent on both ends
       of the court, and is a real pleasant surprise.  We'll need him
       in the Tournament.  Makale with another poor game - choice of
       shots getting worse, and his shortcomings as a true point guard
       starting to show more and more.  Still, he's the spiritual
       leader on this team, and we will need him down the stretch.
       Needs to get his mojo and shooting touch back.
       Great news that both Albany and Hartford lost, so we still have
       a cushion with the #2.  Need to TCB against Maine and Hartford
       at home.  Heard a rumor tonight that Elijah being targeted to
       come back for the Albany game; hope that this materializes.
       This would be welcome news.

       I can't wait for there to be no more Duncans at Vermont. Should
       only be one left next year with one of them graduating along
       with Lamb.
