1/24/2018 - GT @ FSU

[Jacket4Life]

Okogie has got to start playing better defense. Guys are driving right by him.

If I didn't know better I would assume nothing had been said about not turning it over.

 

[Jacket4Life]

Terrible

True but the tight-arse whistle doesn't help. Where's the gentleman that keeps telling me the way the refs decide to blow the whistle doesn't matter?

Also, I got a prize for anyone that can name one thing that didn't go wrong in that final stretch of the 1st half.

Okogie hit a 3. Where's my prize?

Jax didn’t turn it over

But mostly because Jose was too busy doing it

No injuries!

Other than that, as bad as it could have gone.

This game shows the importance of building depth. Unless you have lethal weapon 3 a 7 man rotation ins't going to get it done. You need depth. Otherwise you're up **** creek when you get into a game like this and are forced to play guys with no experience.

 

[Jacket4Life]

Agree the foul calls are out of control. Lack of depth is really hurting us this year. Seems like we are in every game until we have to start going to our bench. When we get into foul trouble it’s game over.

 

[Gold1]

People who say UVA is hard to watch obviously haven’t seen us play. We make the walk to the scorers table look difficult

Uva is hard to watch and we are as well.

 

[GTbball2016]

I just don't get the offense. They play a slow tempo yet cannot shoot from distance. Tadric and Okogie were born to play in an uptempo offense (as well as hang out at a pool in Arizona).

Desperately need to start getting top 100 recruits on the roster. Can't have a roster full of projects and expect to make the tournament

 

[MWBATL]

Don't want to try, but I cannot recall the last time we gave up 50 in the first half....

Y'all all lose. It was a trick question. Nothing went right. Haha. It wouldn't be GT if you didn't get tha shaft.

Yes they are, but who else is? We don't have the depth to play uptempo which is why we try to slow the game down.

 

[YJAlleyCat]

I am not having fun watching this game. I hope Sunday we get some mojo back.

 

[mstranahan]

I'm confused. MJ Walker, the next LeBron, has 4 fouls. Koumadje has 4 also. Free Shoes U has 16 as a team. For us, CGB & AD have 4 and the team has 17. Somehow this is further proof that the refs are part of a draconian conspiracy against us?

ETA: With 5 minutes left, we've taken 24 FTs to their 22.

 

[New Old Guy]

First UNC on Saturday, now tonight vs. FSU. When do we get this kind of favorable officiating at home?

 

[mstranahan]

They blew through the over / under with 5:40 left in the game. Easy money

We play slow because of a lack of depth even though Tadric and Okogie, and Jose for that matter, would be better off running it. That being said, what is really baffling is that we don't shoot 3s well but we try to go to a small ball lineup so often.
