Marine, you seem to be pointing out part of what is so maddening about White’s teams, particularly after Billy’s kids matriculated IMO...that is, they seem so bad fundamentally, which either limits what they can actually do or makes them look like a mediocre 17u AAU team much of the time. I know these kids are talented, but rarely do they appear to have a purpose offensively in the half court other than to throw up a shot after poor movement, few passes other than around the perimeter, and a desperation three as the shot clock is expiring. Defensively, we sure seem to lose the men we are guarding quite often and we go under picks more than fighting through them. Maybe things have changed with that part of man D concept? Historically, that usually meant “lazy”and “poorly coached.” It also drives me nuts that we rarely seem to have a decent inbounds play.

We had lunch at a restaurant after church and the Illinois / Loyola game was on. It was actually pleasurable to watch. Both teams were pretty good fundamentally and had plans that they worked to execute both offensively and defensively. They worked for high percentage shots first and the longer shots were not usually highly contested or out of desperation. They played tough D, contested shots, and boxed out consistently. I’d give anything to see us play sound basketball. I don’t believe we’ll ever see it for more than an occasional stretch under White. Regardless, I hope we win.

I’ll respond later depending on what mood I’m in after this one. Lol.
I will say Loyola took out a #1 seed in a low scoring game. Both teams shot a lower percentage than we did last game. Illinois had 17 turnovers. Congrats to Illinois on a great season but it would not have been well received by our fans....at least this board.

At this point only one thing matters....win or go home. How ugly or unsatisfying matters little. I’ve accepted that we will not play the “40 minutes of hell” style that I prefer.

lol I didn't even know I had this channel but glad I do. Glad for now anyways. We'll see what happens.

 

[LeeForThree]

Florida is up 12-10 at the under 16 timeout. Offense pretty decent early. Defense struggling. Tried to press failed miserably and the man and zone has been bad as well

 

[MertzJay26]

They’ve got two scorers. Limit them best you can and we win

Unfortunately, I'm finding out I don't have it. Absolutely sucks.

 

[GatorJ]

Pretty good game thus far. Appleby obviously affected by injury. Defensive switching problems. But not terrible.

 

[GatorJ]

Mann has been really good this game.

 

[MertzJay26]

Ahh more turnovers by being sloppy

 

[MertzJay26]

Clean it up!

 

[LeeForThree]

4 stupid turnovers inna row then Duruji kicks a 3pt shooter giving a 4pt play

 

[LeeForThree]

Florida is up 18-16 at the under 12 timeout. Some really dumb turnovers by everyone in that stretch

 

[GatorJ]

Duruji isn’t very good

 

[DoubleGator87and90]

Really good effort on D and on the glass. The Duruji foul on the 3 ptr was unfortunate, but they’re closing out hard on the shooters so that can happen. Turnovers are the big issue

 

[Marine1]

Turnovers are maddening.

 

[G. Gordon Gator]

Nice possession

 

[G. Gordon Gator]

Ooooph! Right back with a 3. These cats are no joke
