Paradise Jam Tournament

[irishfan]

Self destructing? 7 points and 3 rebounds in 11 minutes. 2 turnovers, but one was a questionable call. Not really self-destructing...

 

[ColonialHead]

I didn't say he was having a bad night....

But he had a couple minute stretch where he had 3 turnovers and committed a foul. that's what i was referring to. He's having a good night otherwise.

 

[ColonialHead]

Good looking half of basketball so far. It would be nice to have a little more than 6 point lead right now, but I'll take it!

 

[irishfan]

38-32 Irish at halftime.

 

[ColonialHead]

that was nice defense right there to force the 5 second count

 

[irishfan]

52-44 Irish with 12:52 left. Irish are on a 6-0 run and have all the momentum.

 

[ColonialHead]

Harrangody is really on fire now, I'm going to randomly pick a player and post that he is self destructing at the beginning of every game...

 

[stonebreakerwasgod]

I like that strategy.

 

[irishfan]

9 minutes left: 55-52 Irish

 

[irishfan]

57-52 with 7:22 left

 

[irishfan]

61-60 Baylor with 3 minutes left. One of Baylor's best big man just fouled out.

 

[irishfan]

61-60 still with 2:03 left

 

[irishfan]

65-62 Baylor with 30 seconds left

 

[irishfan]

3 seconds left...down by 5. tough loss for the Irish.

 

[irishfan]

I sensed you might have the force too. Now, when you learn to harness it, can you teach me? I've tried all the magic words and nothing is working. grin:

Explain to me wtf jackson was thinking. Down three, final possesion notre dame has and he goes for a layup? WTF IS HE THINKING????????????????

 

[johnnd05]

Crap. That sucks.

He was thinking that since there was roughly 30 seconds left, and we were only down by 3, that he could get an easy layup due to the fact that they were trying to prevent a 3-point shot. If we were down 1 with 20 seconds left, we could then foul and either be down by 3 and arguably in the same exact position, or possibly down by 2 or 1 and have a chance to win the game. Also the chances of Baylor possibly missing 1 out of 2 free throws are pretty good considering that they only shot 60% from the line tonight.

i was very disappointed with the performance. If anyone gets fsn pacific, the games are televised. i have it through a sports package with comcast. anyway, i thought we played a great 30 minutes, but cashed it in after that. i dont want to leave the islands 2-2, so tonight is a big game.

Notre Dame down by 1 with 2 seconds and about to inbound the ball...

 

[irishfan]

Alright make that 1.4 seconds left and inbounding from half-court. Time for a little catch and shoot.

 

[irishfan]
