  • I think Lipscomb out toughed us. They are a team full of juniors and seniors that knew how to dig down at the end and do enough to win. We have done that in many of the past years to other teams. Congrats to them and I can't wait for next year.

    • I'm pulling this from the ESPN play-by-play. (some plays not included)

      Up 61-50 with 8:14 to go.

      Missed 2 by SHJ 13 seconds into the possession
      Missed 3 by MM 14 seconds into the possession
      Missed 3 by SHJ 11 seconds into the possession

      To this point, we still had an 11 point lead with 6:46 left.

      We were outscored 3-21 from that mark.

      For the game, SHJ and MM shot 29%. The rest of the team shot 41%

        Thank you. Confirms what I thought I watched.

    • That was 4.3 million worth of piss poor end game management - it was HS level at best. No, not even HS level.
      FVV probably put a bag over his head when exiting so no one knew who he was associated with.

      They were a bridge - but tonight they were more concerned about putting on a show than playing for the team. I for one, am glad they are moving on.

      That is all.
      Above all, make the right call.

      • Several bone head plays that killed us earlier in the game or we would have been ahead 16 with
        seven to go. RT's terrible pass that led to a quick three and SHJ's bad pass and foul for two more.
        Didn't get back on defense THREE times. ALL those things came back to haunt us, but great season !

            I love HCGM, but he also laid a big egg in those key minutes of losing an 11 point lead.

            Hard to ignore. It was pretty obvious. Love our guys but the basketball IQ was not there tonight with our seniors.

        • Meltdown mode has come and gone. I'm sane now. Yeah, it stinks to lose in the manner in which we did. Beating yourselves is a tough pill to swallow but hey, it happens. Kudos to the Lips, I hope they face Texas and beat Shaka Kahn.

          We were able to get a 20 plus win season, and get valuable experience for the younger group. Good luck to the Seniors in their future endeavors.

          • Overall, we played like the team had stayed up all night watching film from earlier in the season and playing my patented (and trademarked) RMS 2018-2019 Shocker Basketball Drinking Game.

            Much like me the morning after a game, they were lethargic, uninspired, and mentally challenged. I guess it's time to retire the RMS 2018-2019 Shocker Basketball Drinking Game.

            With that said, it was a helluva ride. Looking forward to next year. Hopefully slightly less beer and a lot more wins!

              The first 10 games or so were brutal...from what I remember.

          • I am still in shock that 4.3 million/year just stood there and watched the opponent go a 21-3 end game surge and other than a few shakes of his wrist watch, just watched it happen.

            Unfricking believable.

            That is all.

              He was letting his seniors decide the outcome.

              When DD picked up his 3rd foul with 8 minutes to go I knew he would be taken out. Then he an JE just sat on the bench as all of our momentum and most of the lead disappeared. GM would rather lose than have a player foul out.

            • Is everyone over it yet? Y'all know deep down inside. We overachieved.... And this is ok. Let's look forward to next year and the players coming in and our returning core. Blowing a lead is nothing new, and we all know it. Goshox

              • The seniors were not good. They both have the tendency to try to put the team on their shoulders when we are struggling and they did not disappoint in that regard tonight. Sometimes it works out and sometimes it’s really ugly. Time to move on.

                • ES is a badass.
                  The play he made with the steal / recovery / resteal / full speed behind the back dribble / dish to someone who redished to SHMFJ for the dagger-seal-the-win- I'm tired of messin with you-ain't no freakin Bufflers in Tennessee- LipscombU game-set-match-dagger 3 was the play of the game.
                  SHMFJ missed.
                  Lo, I am ruptured.

                    Agreed, let’s fire this guy and bring in someone who will use all the timeouts.

                      pie n eye, I like your posts, but your statement here is exaggerated. I'm not sure that ShockRef s was.

                      GM is definitely not above criticism. His game management when Jans isn't beside him has been suspect always. Hoping one of the present assistants will become brave enough to help in the future.

                    Pie,
                    Don't try and tell me me you think this was well managed end game scenario? You aren't that drunk are you?

                    21-3... no more exhibits to present, Your Honor.

                    That is all.
