Unreal that Gaines went over 30 minutes before taking his 4th shot of the game after starting 2/3 early on. Hopefully sparks a comeback.

After the major inj I changed my look at how the BE would play out, dropping from a 12-8 prediction to 10-10. Several negs. going on to close out the season, for them to get the 2/3 they need... so am I surprised at what happened? No,they will prob be life/death with Gtn on Tues. They can't over-match anybody on talent and it's just a real grind to the end against Stors.
It just seems like this team is destined to fall short -has any other in league lost an all-BE player?- and no matter what how hard they try they likely don't have enough. But not giving up: 2 more to give it a last chance. If they had finished better against Butler -without a great player- we likely aren't in this position but this is their reality with 2 remaining.

Didn’t think it was possible for a season to end worse than last year’s but my goodness, we are trending in the absolutely wrong direction.

Our guards are getting swarmed and they are not equipped to handle it...

And back to the original post, Gaines does not have the ability to create his own shot. His handle is similar to that of Jalen Lindsey.

No he doesn’t but after starting 2/3 in the first 4 minutes it’s ridiculous that they couldn’t create something to get him his corner shot again until there were 6 minutes left in the game and we are down double digits. Poor coaching job in my opinion. |

Poor coaching job in my opinion. I agree. Terrible job by the coaches today. Awful scouting job. Getting blown out at home with our season on the line. |

Gaines has had some big games this year when he got hot from 3. And he started hot today and they didn’t take advantage of that at all. Most 3 point shots are created by others penetrating and dishing outside. When Gaines is hot that needs to be done for him to get his shot. When Gaines is getting the same number of shots as Dual, that’s trouble. |

The lack of point guard play really hinders the offense. Too much standing around with no penetration or finding open man. If your point guard play isn’t good you better move that ball around and find the open man. PC chose just to stand around today and let the game pass them by on the court.

If DePaul hires a good coach, we will have the worst coach in the conference. Neptune has dominated us this year

Amen Animal Hopkins injury hurt big time. We really miss his ability to put the ball on the deck…and now our PG’s inability to do so has been magnified. |
