Nate needs help. Who will step up?

Good question. Imagine this team with Nate out.

That's probably game. Hope Nate can average 40 and 20 in the CAA tourney. Otherwise I can see us easily being 1 and done

We will know that feeling next year...

8-0 run for Charleston. Tribe on 2:30 scoring drought.

We look disorganized on offense.

It is painful watching Scott on defense - he literally can't defend anybody

I know Andy is frustrated, but that was really the trigger for Charleston’s run. We have to be smarter.

Game over. This team is in BIG trouble. UNCW now must win.

Where has the outside shooting gone?

We never really had outside shooters outside of Scott and Ayesa. Scott's red-hot shooting came back down to Earth and Ayesa only gets like 10 minutes a game.

Barnes and Hamilton are zero threat of making a jumper and 3 point shots isn't Loewe's game. For whatever reason, VV's confidence has been lost about 3 weeks ago - it is possible he has fatigued from not really playing minutes like this before

The good news is that because everyone else on our team has looked so awful, Nate has been able to show off for the scouts there

Guard Galloway, dag nabit

This is bad.

The next time I hear Jay Colley say “Thornton threw it away” I’M going to scream.

Hamilton is hard to watch. Not sure why he plays as much as he does.

Yep.... This could be the start of a long losing streak. Outside of Nate, nobody is playing with confidence and our defense has looked terrible on the perimeter outside of Loewe

Tribe hasn't scored from the floor in almost 6 minutes.

It was fun while it lasted, but this team is fading and fading fast. Maybe Van Vliet is secretly hurt? Pretty clear Charleston and Hofstra are WAY better than us.

We don't have any swing men on the team and he is the closest thing to one we have. We can't have Barnes and Scott out there at the same time because both of them are very bad on defense.

Hamilton is solid on defense, but he doesn't have the speed to defend someone with Galloway's speed, which isn't fair to him. We are putting him on an island asking him to guard him 1-1, which is just stupid IMO. Run help D when he has it and live with one of the other players hitting shots on Charleston.

On offense, Hamilton is a black hole and teams pretty much don't defend him because they know he is.

I don't think Charleston is way better than us. I actually like that matchup because Loewe defends Riller pretty well and they can't stop Nate.

If VV can fix himself, they have no answer for him either. We just need to do a better job of defending Galloway and make Jesper, Miller, McManus, etc. beat us

Hofstra is a terrible matchup for us and will beat us most times we play
