How many more games will it take for Tony to realize Ronnie is not an A10 point guard and needs to be playing off the ball? He started the second half with two lazy turnovers, but then set up in the corner to knock down an open 3.

I’m not suggesting we reduce his minutes, but put him in a position to thrive as as one of the better shooters on this roster. We are a much better team with Okojie pushing the tempo and distributing the ball.

Too much 1 on 1 - hope things don't entirely unravel here.

 

[DRK331]

Mason up 41-39 in the 2nd half

 

[JimP]

Killed on the offensive boards too...

 

[FlPatriot]

Interesting total collapse within three minutes

I’ve tried to be positive, but this is bad. You can’t let a 13 point lead at home vanish because just terrible turnovers. Way too careless with the ball when you have the lead. Also, where the hell is all the movement we saw on offense in the first half? Now I’m gonna have to see Rothstein’s annoying Schmidt t-shirt on Twitter.

Mason down 48-45

Yep - Bonnies too good to make mistake after mistake against. So frustrating.

These are games we must win to entertain thoughts of a Top 4 finish in conference

What a turnaround! Maddox with two huge 3s, Billups with a few great drives, and lockdown defense. Let’s close it out!

Mason up 62-57

Mason up 7 with 17 seconds left in game

Battle of the mids, came out on top

 

[GMUYoda]

69-60 Mason wins... but it was a tough win

 

[gmutom]

Really good win! Nice adjustments by Tony with the substitutions and schemes — especially defensively.

 

[FlPatriot]

What the heck was that?? Just went to sleep for 8 minutes, then woke up again…

Looks like that’s exactly what he ended up doing, lol!

Great toughness from the team and excellent on the fly adjustments by Tony. Things were coming unraveled and they pulled it together. Also, felt like this game was called as basketball should be called. Allow some contact, but not allowing the grabbing or pushing that we’ve seen in other games.
