We shot poorly, not the end of the world. Still in line for the 3 seed. Doubt there will be many more nights Brett, Nico and Marquis are that cold from the field. Need to start fast on Sunday.

I have no doubt Siena will take care of Quinnipiac on Sunday, they are a bad basketball team.
However, like Manning said tonight they will be done in the quarterfinals if this continues.

If we're gonna give Wright a pass for having stitches in his non-shooting hand, he shouldn't have shot 22 times in the last 2 games.

On the bus returning Me played poorly. Either bb is sick or a sleep. Long was on the bench all night not sure why. Couldn't rebound. Made ft could have won the game 230 left still had a shot Gilbert over rated Nick did a number on him

Lavon doesn't care. That's what pisses me off the most. Jimmy needs to bring in a starting SF TOMORROW. Lavon needs to begin his senior year on the bench. I agree 100% that 'Quis is playing too much. (His man-to-man defense is non-existent) Ball movement has stopped, but when your best players aren't making shots, things will always look bad. I like what Kinnon bough to the table today, hopefully Jimmy gives him 10 min a night. He helps us whenever he's out there. Can't blame Nico's horrible outside shooting on 'Quis. He's simply not making his 3's, just like the beginning of the year. Lavon stat line- 1 point, 1 rebound, 2 turnovers, no fouls. I'm not sure how many minutes he played but we can't have this kind of effort and win. Hard to blame this effort on Quis' return.

As far as chemistry after Iona game me came out and Sid ream ended to learn to play with him. Wrong answer obviously. Time for up to reevaluate

Chemistry not there. Team is reeling going into the tournament. Beating a bad Quinnipiac team won't help much. This team needs to win its quarterfinal game or the 20 wins will be diminished.

The leaders of this team might need a "players only" meeting to figure out this first half mindset! It's a lack of focus and aggressiveness!

I didn't realize Wright had stitches on his hand- That's tough to play with effectively... He should be used on a limited basis until he is 100%- They have played poorly the last few games but still time to right the ship- Gotta get the D in order and offense clicking again

Nico since Wright's return. 6.7 points and shooting 26%.

The Rider game, Wrights first back, everyone was happy. 20 pt win, everyone shot well, 'Quis came off bench (27 min may have been too much) and had a real solid game. Then the wheels came off against the best team in the league, and we shot the bed in the first half. Showed a lot heart in the 2nd. Just too much to ask (25 down)for a comeback.
Nico wasn't a great shooter in 2015. In his first 13 games, he shot 24% from the 3 point line, and 42% from the field.
He had a MONSTER 3-game run, which ended with JP's biggest win since he got here, at Iona, where he scored 68 pts on 64% shooting from the field, and 47% from the 3. Maybe he's just coming back down to earth a little? He's a freshman, albeit a great one, they all go thru peaks and valleys. Let's hope he gets out of his valley for the last 4 games, because we ain't winning shit without him playing a major role.

I didn't see tonight's game but did see a lot of deferring to wright and some forcing from wright in the last game. Wright before he left was half the teams offense... he needs to settle in to facilitating.
Too much too soon

Not sure what is going on with Nico-- he was passing up good shots-- definitely not playing with same "swag".. Quis was brought back too quick..before he was ready- his shot looks horrible, and players are deferring to him standing around. He should have been "eased" into line up
