look at knight out there.

 

[military_irish]

Knight stepping up this game, best time to play your best ball.

 

[BGIF]

Picked up his 2nd foul.

 

[irishff1014]

Good reaction by Cooley

 

[BGIF]

Connaughton's lack of scoring has been part of the recent problems.

 

[BGIF]

ND's biggest lead.

 

[irishff1014]

Connaughton's lack of scoring has been part of the recent problems.

I would agree with that.

 

[irishff1014]

WE are leaving these guys way to open behind the line.

 

[BGIF]

Cbssports.com scoreboard is about 10 seconds ahead of the TV action. That 3 was posted while X was bringing the ball upcourt.

 

[irishff1014]

Gotta love the fight from the guys though

 

[IrishAlum1997]

Our end of half defense is atrocious. Good fight from our boys though.

Cooley

Cooley

This team looks SO much better when Cooley comes to play... Lets Go Irish!

 

[NDOM]

That Freeze dude has 6 dunks. He is killing ND in the paint.

 

[HereComeTheIrish]

No way in hell should Grant be hoisting that. He's the very last guy on the team I want taking that shot. Heck, I'd take Knight taking a three right now over Grant.

This team is at its best when they take there time and get inside the paint. I love that we can hit the 3 ball but i feel we go to it way to early.

In the first half yes. Now just need to make adjustments to improve on that not that big of a deal.

 

[BGIF]

X has 1 pt off the bench; ND has 6.

 

[BGIF]

Cooley played 15 minutes in 1st half; Freaze 17.

Drag's played 14, 5 more than Connaughton.

These are seem to swich in and out and not lose a step most the time.

 

[irishff1014]

He just said Pat is a baseball pitcher for Notre dame wow

 

[BGIF]

Nice pass!

 

[HereComeTheIrish]

Grant... smh

 

[irishff1014]

Grant... smh

He is not taking good shots tonight. But glad Cooley woke up

 

[BGIF]

Connaughton's 10 pts on 2-4 on 3s, 2-2 inside the arc.

 

[irishff1014]

I understand running the clock down but dn't run it down where you have to take a stupid shot.

 

[BGIF]

All alone.

 

[military_irish]

Best part of the stat line for me so far, 17 assist on 19 made FG

 

[HereComeTheIrish]

Atkins!!!! Boom
