Basketball GAMEDAY THREAD -- Rutgers versus Princeton

[RUIvyKnight20]

Think by mid-season Davis will start to eat into Simpson's minutes

 

[bethlehemfan]

This is exactly what I expected. Just a terrible game to schedule.

 

[newell138]

We should never play Princeton again.. they’re abusing us

Disagree. We should be playing them every year just for the historical aspect of the game

 

[RUsojo]

Unfortunately other than the stretch where we beat 5 ranked teams or whatever, cliff has been predominantly but in inefficient positions playing back to the basket at an absurdly high percentage.

He should be in the PnR every single possession if you want to utilize the skill set he has.

Anddddd just like that, dump it into cliff out of the timeout. Coaching travesty.

Anddddd just like that PnR from the wing cliff walks to the rim for an easy slam. It’s not that hard.

 

[robjknight]

We have no go to guy !
And doe’s Princeton find 6 three point shooters and we can’t find one?

 

[RUChoppin]

Score???

Not much of that happening on our end. Down 57-49

[mikemarc1]

y’all are being wayyyy to dramatic. Don’t think we look much different than many of our teams these past years. We will be alright, Princeton is gooood!!

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

Embarrassing

 

[FrankZ]

Nice pass Noah 🤦‍♂️

 

[bethlehemfan]

I repeat. Our guards stink

 

[RUsojo]

Cliff wide open off pnr, Fernandes looks cross court and throws it away

We had one. He left. And some folks were happy that we got faster.

 

[Rokodesh]

Davis has to be the primary ball handler.

Oskar no need for that

 

[PSAL_Hoops]

This team looks like it picked right up from the NIT loss

No - this team looks a lot worse.

 

[Captain Hogleg]

I love this game. Teach our guys a lesson.

 

[RutgersChow]

I’m a little perplexed the staff has had all offseason and doesn’t know the what the best lineup combo is.

None of the three guards can play together imo. Gavin has to slot the 2. Until Mag is back, you figure out what your bets pairing is at 3/4 whether it be Hyatt/Williams/Oscar/Woolfolk(when not at the 5).

Perplexed? Pike can't figure that out every year until at least 10 games.

 

[koleszar]

Careless pass when you're trying to climb back into it.

 

[runner3283]

Same team still have no one who can shoot a three pointer

Or no one to guard a three!

 

[RU Mike73]

Let’s go boys.

 

[FrankZ]

Need this basket

 

[BillyC80]

Let’s get it to a one possession game

 

[RUsojo]

Great pass from cliff to get to that open 3

 

[shields]

Where is Gavin?

 

[njxchange]

Davis looks fluid out there

 

[FrankZ]

3 FTs was fine. 👏

 

[willisneverrana43]

I love this game. Teach our guys a lesson.

What lesson is that? They’re playing hard, and the game is close.

 

[bac2therac]

Crowd!

 

[BillyC80]

Down only 2!

 

[RUsojo]

&-0 run

 

[FrankZ]

Let him take it down the lane. Embarrassing

 

[koleszar]

WTF was that defense?

 

[njxchange]

hee haaaa lets D up!!!

 

[RW90]

Didn't need that shot from Fernandes

 

[Captain Hogleg]

What lesson is that? They’re playing hard, and the game is close.

Agreed. I feel like you learn a lot by playing good competition and a team that doesn’t beat itself. We need to clean up sloppy play or you pay the price.

 

[RutgersChow]

JD is the starting PG.

 

[Doteman]

Embarrassing

 

[FrankZ]

Lee’d 🤦‍♂️

Asian kid is killing us
