Both teams were bad. Ga made the play that matter, even if it was a clear over the back.

Look this team is better than last year, but still mediocre. You would hope your 7ft C would be in there, too bad he's soft as warm butter.

Another game that offensive rebs cost us.

2.3 seconds left. Advance the ball past half court then call a timeout. Not that hard to understand.

The same decision making caused us to lose to Nicholls.

Jesus. He had 2 full seconds to catch, set himself and shoot. Wtf


Well you see, UGA has five defenders on the floor who are not going to let you just spot up, take a deep breath, and then attempt the game winning shot.

As good a look that you will get, just didn't fall.
Shouldn't have come down to that.
We play hard, but not very smart.

So we have to make another inbounds, catch and shoot with 1.5 seconds???

The shot was a good shot. Just didn't go down.

Also, u guess we should forget about the to that got us the lead?

Dean was busting his butt trying to block out. The very long three point attempt banged off the rim and a low angle and shot past Dean (or close enough for the UGA guy to reach over Dean’s shoulder and tap the ball). Had the ball bounced up in the air he would have grabbed the rebound. It wasn’t a lack of effort or “not blocking out.”


Not true.

You don’t start trying to rebound after the shot hits the rim. As soon as the ball is released you find your man, but your arse on him and drive him back. Dean was reactive, not proactive. And he’s also physically weak.

Neither team was getting offensive rebounds and LSU rebounded way better than Georgia. LSU just shot crappy and turned the ball over way too much. Drove right into a shot blocker and took ill-advised shots. Made bad passes. Just make a couple more shots, and turn the ball over 3 or 4 fewer times. LSU wins. Cut the turnovers in half and LSU wins easily, IMO.

He was blocking out with the ball in the air. Dean is outweighed by the UGA guy by about 35 lbs. He’s not going to drive him anywhere. But Dean was in between him and the goal. The ball just rocketed off the rim and past Dean.

Or I could buy the UGA guy reached over the back.

You guys can downvote me all you want I don’t fricking care.

All I’m saying is a half court inbounds set is more likely to result in a score than a full court heave. To each their own opinion I guess

Crap game by both, but give it to LSU to play crappy at their place and be in it till the end.

Given the situation, we got the best look you were going to get.
This game was lost because we missed a ton of shots at the rim. and of course we couldn't get the 1 reb we needed.

Given the fact we had zero timeouts, yes I’d agree. Tremendous look.

All I’m saying is if we advance to half court then call the timeout to run a proper inbounds half court set we’d get a much better look.

Yes, this game was lost in the previous 39 minutes and 58 seconds. Mwani helped in this game in his first game back. Would have loved to see Ward and Collins.

Yes I also agree with this. Basketball is not determined by one play. It's not Dean's fault he couldn't get the rebound. It's a compounding list of reasons.

We got gifted the chance to win by a blown layup. If their player converts the bunny we'd be having a completely different discussion right now.
