I rewatched the game last night, couple observations:
1. In Coach Richman's post game interview he was talking about the team playing "hero ball" in the 2nd half. I counted only 3, maybe 4, forced shots in the 2nd half. We however missed many open looks and bunnies. Not sure what to think of his comments?
2. Coach had 2 timeouts in his back pocket with 3 minutes left in the game and for all intents and purposes the game was out of reach. He didn't call a timeout in the 2nd half until we were down 12 points. If you are so concerned about "hero ball" why not stop the momentum and refocus the guys?
3. The SDSU coach called a timeout to regroup his guys as soon as we cut the lead from 12 to 8 (just under 8 minutes left). We had made a 4 point run and he calmed the waters.
4. Not once did we close the gap or widen a lead when Daum was on the bench. Missed opportunities.
Just my thoughts, flame away.
