Up 8 with 4 minutes to go, and we took the air of the ball, and totally gave away the momentum.

Waters makes a free throw in regulation, and we likely win

WW shoots free throws with 10 seconds left?

I think with .5 left they actually got a shot off! Skylar was close but not behind the arc but it was close enough to show ww even at the end had a play drawn up.

No, LSU ran set offenses, and when it was time to make a play for a shot, LSU would turn it over. Like three times in a row. Young teams do that. All the time.

Coach did not give away the momentum. But if a different strategy needs to be used, then we have a great Coach to decide what this team does.

No they didn't. Down the stretch they sat at midcourt for 3 straight possessions until 8 seconds on the clock and let Waters iso.

It was flat out maddening. I love Wade but he's not infallible. He got the last 3 minutes wrong.

It's one thing to milk the clock but he went into a complete deep freeze in a game that was only 2-3 possessions and it cost us.

Loss isn't on Wade. No way. He coached a solid game like always. If Reid and Waters weren't hot shite today this game isn't even close.

You people know nothing about basketball. Not everything is the coach’s fault.

CWW went to a prevent offense with 3:05 to go, up 9.

3 empty possessions, due to play being started with 8 seconds to go.

Result - outscored 12-3.

Cww is the best coach we have had in any sport in a long time imo

He certainly does not, but neither does Coach O catch passes or make blocks and it hasn't stopped people from blaming him for ONLY being 9-2.

And to be fair, there was more than a missed free throw today to be critical about. We turned the ball over more than we should and we allowed FSU offensive rebounds. Lots of Offensive rebounds (what was it....20?). There is no reason for something as fundamental as rebounding to be that out of whack.

Alluding, not eluding. The latter means escaping.

That’s what you should do. Run the clock down and shoot with under 5 sec on shot clock. Too many turnovers to begin with.

Not when your previous 4 possessions got you a 9 pt lead.

We definitely gave that game away

It’s definitely not that big of a deal
