H-O-L-Y C-R-A-P.... Ticket Gaines.... Thank You!

Former UMass HC McCall was right...."Isiah Gaines" coming back has been huge.....

McCall also said we"re a "dangerous" team in the A10 tournament.

UGLY win but Screw you Richmond. Burton is a whiny little b*tch. Go Mason!!!!!!

 

[TweederGMU]

Got to find out what went wrong in the 2nd half quickly if we went to move on in the A10 tournament past the 1st game. Teams will be quickly reviewing the tape of the 2nd half and seeing how we sucked and played miserably.

Need to somehow get that 1st half mojo back

We were chucking 3's when everyone was ice cold.... yet they still tried to make 3's instead of getting it down to Josh or driving hard to get an easier shot around the rim.

Just got in from work. Read the hame thread. Good grief!
Can't wait to see the highlights. Really hope they show the Ticket play.

Ticket had one job there: Stay with Burton. If your specialty is supposed to be defense, you can't get caught in a switch and leave their best player wide open.

He read this and fixed it when it counted.

Cardiac Pats storming into Brooklyn as the hottest team in the conference. Who woulda thought.

Many of those 3 pt attempts were out of shot clock desperation. Took too long getting into half court offense. We must have gone several minutes without hitting the rim ---hitting the backboard was almost a moral victory!

Here is the game winning basket by Ticket!!

If Mason ever produces a "Top Plays of the Decade" for the 2020's Ticket would have to be included with that one to end the game. Stick around Ticket. Please!!!

Just got back from the game. Second half I wanted to pull out my hair but damn that was a great finish by Ticket

Wow - what a win after blowing that lead. Rightly or wrongly - I am rooting for GW to beat vcu today so Mason has the 6th seed. Likely not able to watch them during the week in A-10 tournament if they finish at the 5. Maybe it's wrongheaded, but I feel Mason is ok if they simply avoid vcu and Dayton as long as possible.

Kinda tough to tell if Ticket stripped the ball or stole the pass. Maybe a little bit of both.

Mason saved by the Ticket. Cooper left his game on the bus, zero points. But that stuff is going to happen. A win is a win

WINNING TICKET! Gaines Launches Mason Past Richmond, 62-60, to Win Sixth Straight - George Mason University Athletics

The George Mason University men's basketball team (19-12, 11-7) won its sixth-consecutive game in dramatic fashion, as a steal and bucket from Davonte Gaines in

I agree. But....#5 just sits better with me than #6. But yeah.

All I can say is finally, Finally, FINALLY we're on the other end of a team fumbling away their game-winning possession! Been awhile.
