Why did Semi not touch the ball?

Postby Lebanese4Life » Fri Mar 17, 2017 4:36 pm

Anyone???? How in the world does Semi who was on 24 points or whatever not get the ball in the final possession? Instead, they wait to drain the clock and then shake rushes a drive. It was absolutely pathetic game management. When in doubt, u feed the beast.

Terrible coaching not setting something up for Semi.. Love Jank and out guys, but the last 1 minute of that game was an absolute disaster.

Shake got the ball with 2.8 seconds because Semi was not open on the other side and was trying to set a pick.

Great year, but a large part of this loss is on Jank.

That zone was SIMPLE to figure out. Switch Ben Moore and Semi. Semi at the high post kills that zone

Those last few possessions were not good. Major shades of the 2015 loss throughout the final 2 minutes.

At least this one's not controversial, I guess...

Ben was on the bench with four fouls for much of that time. We all saw the answer but by that time Ben was out with four.

We did nothing to combat the zone. ANd off course USC was denying Semi at the end, that is why you need to call a timeout to draw up a play to GET HIM THE BALL or they double him and we get a spot up jumper.

Very stifling defense, very little fouling. Hands all over our faces on layups but very few fouls. Not being salty about the refereeing - great coaching.
