I know basketball is a game or runs but I am still flabbergasted at how we can play so well, come out of a timeout and then crap the bed. Kalu just needs to stop passing for a while.

Sloppy TOs

Well they stuck it out when it counted. Good finish.

Really nice shooting today. The only reason it was close was turnovers. We need to take care of the ball.

Agree TOs let them back in twice. Nice dub.

8-8 from the line and nobody in foul trouble. Really the only negative on the stat line is the turnovers.

This was an encouraging win, but NE doesn’t look like a very good team. We have to cure the sloppy passes because it almost cost us the game. Also, I wonder if the lack of a crowd is contributing to the sloppiness. In other words, does it feel more like a scrimmage to our players. Sometimes I feel like I’m watching a pick-up game.

For those who didn't come today, a lot of those reserved seats were empty. I don't know if it was because of the opponent or the fact that it's five days til Christmas but they were empty.

That is disappointing. I checked if anyone was selling their tickets and didn’t see any. Clearly, they don’t need the money - but it would be nice if they offloaded their tix.

Kalu is definitely coming into his own. A star is beginning to emerge.

Nobody wants to sit inside with a mask on for 2 hours. Combine that with weather that makes it difficult to leave the house, holiday time, and bad basketball.

First time ever I forgot we had a game. Oops

That is sad if there were people that had one of only 250 tickets and didn't show up and didn't give them up.

I'm not completely convinced yet. I'd like to see him put two of these games together. And tighten up the passing.

Those are weak excuses. I don't have any problem wearing a mask to see a game. But if your not going, give up the tickets.

I'm with you on that. Also has to do well against much better competition than Northeastern.

I think some people who got tickets for today didn't necessarily sit in the "reserved" seats.

Agreed - but he is clearly playing with confidence. I think his sloppy passes was just a show of disrespect to NE - and, to be honest, a lack of maturity. A more mature player would not have let up and pushed for a 20+ point win. This team has the potential to hunt if they play with more discipline.

Ezikpe would be all cusa if he can play 25 mins per game. Hes has played well our toughest competition, he needs to have those games vs our crappy opponents.
