GOOD LUCK IN THE ROUND OF 32 LOSERS!!!

Kung WuSHOCKvalue How come there isn't a report button anymore?

If Shaq takes the two after Landry's FT miss we're down by 3 with around 18-20 seconds left. Instead we try to pass it out for a prayer 3 over and over. Silly.

[BOBB]

Wouldn't have mattered. Once they got the lead back we were done. Melted like butter under the lights.

[Shocktheheck]

Terrible finish. Lost 3 of 4 and looked bad doing it. Turnovers, poor shooting, bad defense. Going to be more than a rebuilding year with these performances. Need to look at bench and find some scoring/defense. We got outplayed on defense by an offensive minded team.

Hmm, good question. I didn't even realize that was missing.

[IndianaShocker]

My stomach is usually sick after we get knocked out. Strange, but this season I kind of feel relief. I guees its hard to feel too bad when some on the court don't seem to care much.

Also, I don't know what the issues inside the locker room are, I just hope those cancers are gone. And please get a defender and someone who can make a play to win a game.

I agree, I’m not even that upset. I think it’s because deep down we knew who this team was. They proved it over and over again all year.

Do you see a "Flag" button right before the Like button at the bottom of the post? I see it, but maybe it's only enabled for certain account types by accident.

[ShockerFever]

Still no.

Okay I will work through it. Currently on a date night with my wife whining about this season.

[Kung Wu]

How about now?

Connor and Willis were 8-13 from 3. The rest of the team was 0-15.

Whoa.

Is it too early to start a thread discussing the 2018-19 Shocker team? At face value, it will certainly be a rebuilding year.

[Mr. Pickle]

We need some more 3-4s who are actually a threat on the offensive end.

[ShockerFever]

No post game comments from the coach? LAME

[BOBB]

NM.

There will be a final Coach's Show according to MK.

This game was pretty symbolic on how this season went. Most of the seniors played poorly, but Landry was not playing like an all-American today. Bad shooting days happen but the way they kept getting steals on him was crazy.

This is going to linger for a while and I hope the returning players remember this feeling and remember that the teams before them that went to new heights, worked their ass off for it, it wasn’t just given.

Coach might have to shake up the staff a bit.

I don’t really drink but if I did, I’d drink until I couldn’t feel feelings anymore.

Just have to remember, losing a first round game is now an off year for us when it used to be a dream most years to make the tournament. It even happens to teams with $100,000 players.



Go Shocks.

[Topshock]

42% & 28% from 3. We just can't beat anyone shooting like that, the way we play D. Hats of to Marshall for making all the plays we didn't.

A big reason for that is we don’t space the floor because we insist on playing two fives and non shooters.

Whether people want to admit it or not this game has changed and if GM does not change with it he s in danger of becoming a dinosaur

Having 4 fives recruited for next year is a horrible sign.

[proshox]

I can’t like this enough. The only alternative is to have lock down defense... which we didn’t.

[wusphlash]

Time to step away. Emotions running way too high.

[AndShock]

Worst part about this loss is that I can’t watch the rest of the tournament. I really enjoyed watching all the games yesterday.
