Just simple things like bounce passes, use of timeouts if get stuck w the ball, use of the glass, boxing out, finding mismatches
This team as talented and experienced as any in ACC, but infected w BrownL mediocrity in biggest moments.
Will NEVER understand taking out a struggling guard after they see 3 straight free throws drop. Will NEVER understand he nearly every game an opponent goes for a career high or (like today) is allowed to hit 5 3s without someone overplaying into 2 pt range or giving them a HARD foul. We had the most chicken S tech and at least 6 good D bad foul calls against us because refs, teams rightfully disrespect our overpaid, underperforming coach
STILL think this team can rally, but will take growth in maturity by those first 10 players. THEY need to have closed door meeting and decide they never give away (or let refs take away) another winnable game unless opponent actually earns it
Love Ian. Think he our most consistent winner, but made multiple losing plays when we should have been silencing that building. Hope this pisses him and other players off enough to go on a couple week winning streak.
I never heard an explanation for the technical but it was the obvious no walking call on the last play that was the game. Yes we fouled, but the walking happened first and it was that way the entire game.
Coach Brownell totally outcoached John Scheyer who had at least 3-4 players on the court that were 5* recruits. The turnovers in the last minute and a half were just killers. Duke won, we lost and we move on.
