Game 33: (Atlantic 10 Tournament, Washington, DC), St. Joe's, Friday, March 9th, 2:30 PM, NBCSN

[Leesburg Chankenstank III]

We've only shot 8 free throws. Penetrate!

 

[GMUYoda]

Funk and Newkirk each have 3 fouls now... I guess that is good

 

[GMUgemini]

I don't know...I don't think they have anything left in the gas tank for this game.

 

[GMUYoda]

Just didn't come out to play in teh 2nd half... I guess just not anything left in the tanks then? Down 13 with just over 11 to play. I want to believe... just having a hard time right now that we can make a comeback.

Otis and Grayer struggling. Just shows we need 2 grad transfers next season, more fire power needed.

Paulsen's rotations have been idiotic. Playing against a team that plays 2 bigs at a time is leaving Otis guarding their 2nd tallest player and creating mismatches throughout. Play AJ or Greg. This Mar at the 5 lineup doesn't work.

Only one looking out of gas is Otis and I can't blame him

 

[MasonSAE4]

Otis is gassed. All his shots are short. Grayer is too hurt to really hit anything. And aside from Mar, no one is chipping in.

Warm up the bus. We are going places.

 

[GMU_DCU]

well it was a fun season, on to the next.

 

[Leesburg Chankenstank III]

Great Great season. We'll work out the kinks and prepare to be preseason top 4 next year. Go Mason!!!!

 

[GMU_DCU]

1-19 from 3...that's all you need to know.

 

[GMU_DCU]

Livingston is done, we've drained every last ounce of energy from him this season.

 

[GreenLantern]

They are gassed but they gave it all this season. Next year with a full team, we will make noise!

This is my one persisting concern with Paulsen. What is his idea of a zone-breaker offense? We shot so poorly from 3 because all of our takes were tightly contested. We struggle to feed the middle of that zone (due to size?). No one moves without the ball. And rarely do we split the zone with a dribble. Maybe next year Reuter can allow us to feed it post to post. Still questions to answer there.

Lets get a point guard and one more big with some upside for the future.

Analyzing after the game on NBC Sports after the game Jimmy Roberts attributed the loss to the talent gulf between Mason and St Joe's. Satisfied with this season, but hoping GMU comes out with a real chip on their shoulders next year.

He’s talking out of his a**. We were 2-1 against St Joe’s including a win at their spot. If we won he would’ve been kissing our a**.

 

[GSII]

Wasnt one of their starters out vs us?

 

[PoorManProfit]

What a shitty game against a shitty team.

My Lord the bullshit force is strong with that fool.

 

[Quentin Daniels]

Tough loss to end on but overall a pretty darn good season that exceeded expectations.

Looking forward to the 18-19 season. Paulsen seems to have the program back on track and should make for a good narrative to convince incoming recruits to sign.
