At half time, I was laying the difference on four ill advised shots by the Rams, a Larry 3, a TJ 3, a Gavin forced 3 and a Gavin forced 2. Give us those four possessions back and maybe we convert two of them, we're up at least 7 at half instead of 3. Then we come out the second half and get even worse on shot selection/selfish play. The only positive I think may have come when most of the SC booed Larry for taking that last 3 when we were down one. Maybe he will listen to the fans, because he obviously is not listening to anyone else with knowledge of the game.
Northeastern took it to us most of the game in terms of mental and particularly physical toughness. That just cannot be allowed in our house and yet they have done it two years in a row. We began to respond in the last six minutes, but it was too little too late.
Message to Larry: You are a center. Centers belong mostly in the paint. Get your a** in the paint and start playing like a center; post up, catch the pass, take it hard to the hoop, crash the boards.
Another message to Larry: Forget about the NBA, you are not outplaying centers/power forwards at the mid-major level. What do you think it will be like going up against NBA bigs night in and night out for a hundred and some odd games? Focus on making the Rams the best they can be this year and stay for your Senior season to bulk up, learn the game more thoroughly and truly become a first rounder.
Northeastern, congrats on a well conceived and well executed game plan.
