I agree with the comments about Fisher forcing things, or playing selfishly, at times and not having the mental fortitude to finish point blank shots and make important FTs.
Also agree that if allowed by the coach, players need to take open shots or at least drive to bring a defender to them so they can pass to an open teammate with a better scoring opportunity. Being patient and being aggressive can have a symbiotic relationship in an offensive scheme.
Still enjoying the heck out of this season. Sadly its the first time in a long time I can still say that at this point.
Go Saints!

As another poster posted elsewhere it is "all about the coaching" JC is NOT the next JC., but he will learn. I reiterate this team goes as far as EF can take them. It is that simple. No, this team will go as far as the other players defense can take them in compensating for two guys in Fisher and Seymour that play none of it.

Seymour gave us 12 points (4/10- last miss the game was over) (for a team that can't score) and his long-arms can mis-direct some three point shots against smaller guards. I think on this team he's valuable.

I think on this team he's valuable. I'm not saying he doesn't have a role on this team, as does Fisher. All I'm saying is the other guys on the court have to play amazing defense for Siena to win to make up for two guys that are less effective on defense than caution tape.

Kadeem and Camper play great D but have limited offense, Iona wasn't even guarding Kadeem, they didnt care about his high PPS..LOL. Camper and kadeem played a combined 56 min and scored 4 points a piece- and neither was the focus of Iona's defense. Both were left alone outside of 15 feet. Just something JC has had to deal with this year. Fisher and Seymour are not good defensive players, although I did see Sloan alter a few 3 point attempts by Iona's guards with his length.

He almost had his first steal in 7 games as well but was so shocked by it the ball went through his hands and out of bounds.

He almost had a rebound or two too..LOL.. like I said not much you can do- take away his 12 points and last night is a 17 point loss. Lets face it, if Siena had any sort of balanced offense, they win easily last night. We knew we had a bunch of role players coming into season- amazing we have done as well as we have- although I tend to think a lot of that is how bad the MAAC is

The rest of the league has no excuses. Maybe Iona gets a pass for an off year. I'd say six teams could realistic win it which is a crazy number.
