UTEP vs Bradley: Title Game

[Rot]

We had a chance to cut it to three and that sloppy turnover has led to easy baskets by Bradley.

 

[nattybry]

A chance to get with in 2 or 3 and instead just like that it's a 9 pt game and in all likelihood a wrap, Sigh 😞 I was worried about this game and we've played hard, but not smart at times and couldn't make outside shots against the zone. 1st loss is gonna sting, but this team still plays hard and is gonna get better as the season goes along.

 

[develman]

This has been a poorly coached game. This one is on Golding imo. Terrible game management. And I’ve been one of only a few Golding apologists.

BTW was that T on Golding?

 

[Lil_Train]

These guys (Bradley) are long, and their bigs are superior, at least in this game they have been.

Leons is a really good player.

 

[Rot]

How was that not a foul on Bradley??

 

[axingfools1]

Powell is killing us today.vthat and our inability to guard the paint.

 

[FeralFelidae]

The refs aren't calling any travels on their big men. If they catch it by the basket, they can take about four steps.

 

[Rot]

We need a stop

 

[Rot]

Hardy with another 3!

 

[MinerManiac]

Hardy heating up!

Finally got one.

 

[nattybry]

Hardy, said, "We ain't dead yet"

 

[Rot]

We’re back in the game.

 

[Lil_Train]

T Hardy!

 

[FeralFelidae]

Making it interesting.

 

[Rot]

Hardy should have passed. He was in the land of the giants.

 

[MinerManiac]

Happy Solomon scored, but where was our sense of urgency?

 

[Lil_Train]

Should have been an and one for Solomon.

 

[Rot]

We took too much time on that shot.

 

[nattybry]

We can't get a foul call, geez. Their twin Towers are killing us inside, How many blocks do they have!?

 

[axingfools1]

Wow. I can't beleive Hardy passed up that 3

 

[MineroFanatico]

Happy Solomon scored, but where was our sense of urgency?

The urgency has been UTEP fb like. Dimel like.

 

[axingfools1]

End of the 1st half hurt bad

 

[STexMiner]

We can't get a foul call, geez. Their twin Towers are killing us inside, How many blocks do they have!?

The fouls were 8-2 around the 10 minute mark. Now it's 8-7. Refs had to make it fair.

 

[axingfools1]

Hardy should have passed. He was in the land of the giants.

He should have shot the 3

 

[FeralFelidae]

Miss this FT on purpose?

 

[Rot]

Very sloppy game by the Miners killed us tonight.

 

[FeralFelidae]

Miss this FT on purpose?

I guess not.

 

[FeralFelidae]

Very sloppy game by the Miners killed us tonight.

In the first half, in particular. I thought they made good adjustments and played well the 2nd half.

 

[Lil_Train]

End of the 1st half hurt bad

Yes. Probably cost us the game. Very little room for error against a team like them.

 

[EPUTEP]

Tough loss. Hoping they can rebound with a win on Saturday @ Loyola Marymount.

 

[MinerManiac]

Great effort, great D, but couldn't hit a damn shot, and looked lost in our half court offense

 

[shyminer81]

Had a chance, too many turnovers, not their night. A game to learn from.

 

[Lil_Train]

Gotta like the fight. I thought Bradley is the best team they have played so far.

 

[Miner_Tavo]

We played well on defense. Refs didn't do us any favors. Turnovers in first half killed us. It's nice to have a fun hardworking team that plays to the final whistle after years of half ass effort.

 

[FeralFelidae]

Great effort, great D, but couldn't hit a damn shot, and looked lost in our half court offense

Bradley wasn't giving us anything inside.

 

[nattybry]

Well all and all not a terrible showing. Too many mistakes and missed shots. Would've been nice to get the win and the Championship, but this team is gonna grow by playing tough teams like this. On to the next one.

 

[develman]

Bradley is a better team than us, and we still took them to the edge.

 

[axingfools1]

Well too bad. Just too many mistakes and missed opportunities. Hopefully the guys can learn and keep improving.

 

[Rot]

The last minute of the first half really killed us. We had our chances to win, but costly turnovers and no sense of urgency towards the end of the game did us in.
