That’s fair (the first part; the ignorant SOB nonsense is, idk, ignorant?). Just because it happened last doesn’t mean it’s the only thing that contributed to the loss.
Literally just before the travel and foul, LSU threw up an air ball with 15 left on the shot clock, at the end of the game, with the lead. That was a terrible shot when LSU was…in great position to win the game. When Gaines rebounds the air ball and immediately flings up of some sort weird sideways whacking dance move, with 12 left on the clock indicating, I’m sure, he had no idea how much time was left and must have thought there was no time left, it’s a pretty clear example of his head not being in the game at the most important time of the game, i.e., not playing well at the end of the game. If he comes down and goes back up, it’s an easy two pts when LSU…was in great position to win the game.
LSU doesn’t play well at the end of games and they certainly didn’t close this one out. But (and maybe you didn’t read my full post) as I said, LSU shouldn’t be put into the close games by bad calls throughout when it should be a ten pt lead at the end…and this is how it plays out. The refs aren’t all of sudden going to bail out LSU for playing poor ball at the very end; they’re going to take another chance to make a bad call.
And even though the travel didn’t get called, a smart player on a smart team knows that you don’t rake down on the arms of a guy holding the ball with 8 secs left and give the ref a chance to even make that call. That’s poor defense at the end of a game when LSU was…in a great position to win the game.
But, I’m not going to argue against my own point after finally calming down from that shite show and watching their idiot coach ride the donkey all over the court after the game as over. That’d be some ignorant SOB type shite.
So I guess both sides of extremists need to realize both things are actually happening. LSU isn’t good enough to win the majority of close games. And the refs shouldn’t be putting them in close games with crap calls when they aren’t going to let them win in the end anyway with another crap call.
