In reply to: Antman 's message, "Advocate coverage on the game" on 06:31:24pm 01/08/06 Sun,

There are a number of factors that led to our loss on Saturday. First, Canisius was unconscious from 3-pt land in the 2nd half. I think it would be a good idea to defend one of these shots, right? What Canisius was doing was NOT rocket science, it's called ball reversal, move the ball and find the open man and boy, were they OPEN.

I think it was mentioned earlier but, how many layups and put-backs did we flat out miss? I can think of 3 or 4 by Dewitt and 1 gimme by Herbie late in the second half. We just didn't execute. As good as I felt after the Siena game, I now feel the same way negatively.

Hopefully, we can take some sense of urgecy to Rider this week. And I agree, although TT had a high scoring game, his percentage has got to increase.

Nice to see big Geoff drop six straight in the paint on Saturday. Although he looks woefully out of position from time to time and his shots aren't things of beauty, we need his presence inside to allow tighter perimeter coverage.

While I agree that Todd took too many shots and needs to pass more and better. 10 of those shots came in the last 5 min, when we were trying to catch up...... 4 in the last 30 sec.

He is the player that can get off a good shot in a hurry. I think his intention was to get us back in the game..... and he has done that before.

JOE STAG - done that before or not, regardless the odds were not in his favor to sink the shot. Deep in the game when he started going haywire trying to catch up there could of been better decisions made from the senior leader.

I take nothing away from Todd...he can get off a good shot in a hurry...but nothing was good for Todd that night.

In saying that it was ok for him to go on like he did in the last lets say 8 minutes (crucial minutes of the game) would you have let him take the ball like he did and just go ballistic?? Being a hero of one game doesn't mean he is a hero 24-7, he needs to understand the art of delegation and start relying on his teammates who are just as capable...may I dask say of stealing his spotlight.
