Sooo, we're obviously going to lose. I apologize for the jinx, no idea what I was thinking. Do we cover?

So we really have only scored 9 points in 13 minutes of play in the 2nd half?

I just turned off the game. Worst half I've ever seen.

Grayer 2nd air ball 3 of the game to go along with Calixte airball free throw.

3 - 21 in the 2nd half.

Thank goodness for Kier and it appears Livingston has been benched. Haven’t seen him off the floor this long all season.

 

[GMU_DCU]

We can’t expect to win a game when both Livingston and Grayer can’t hit the broad side of a barn.

Critical of Paulsen this game. Washington has been killing us all 2nd half and there's been no adjustment.

 

[Patriotsince81]

Absolute sh%t show in the 2nd half. Damn.

 

[GMUYoda]

Good thing I was out watching Black Panther instead of this 2nd half fiasco and choke

 

[MasonCrew]

We scored 17 points in the second half... 17 points. That was the worst display of shooting I've ever seen.

I mean all we had to do was shoot even badly and we would have won.

Up 16 in 1st half? 17 pts. scored in the 2nd half against a horrible defensive squad like LaS? Lose by 7 pts. to an awful (albeit similar) squad? And what was up with letting Washington rape us? Where is the adjustment?

And no one blame Livingston. He was off today, but he has carried G Mas to victory in many games they could/should of lost. Need someone(s) to man up and help.

 

[GMU_DCU]

Pathetic

 

[Patriotsince81]

The 2nd half was the biggest turd in the punchbowl I've seen in years. Wow, disappointing.

Lolwut just happened

Ugh, Fordham deja vu. Tale of two halves. Ball out half one, disappear half two.

Onto to the next one

Ball stopped moving through AJ and Calixte. Starting settling for contested mid range jumpers, which then la salle went back down the court and killed in paint. I understand we don't have an experienced big, but there is no reason when washington is in the game that Mar was the biggest player on the court.

On Facebook Live Paulsen blamed the loss on fatigue.

Was very worried about this game when I saw the line keep climbing. Dayton was our best game of the season (Otis went nuclear, supporting cast showed up) and La Salle is a little better than they've been playing lately. Not much, but a little.

I am just stumped about why we went super small in crunch time. We were getting eaten alive in the paint and not grabbing rebounds on either end, but Calixte and AJ didn't play the last few minutes. I lost the feed for a few minutes early in the second half (we were up about 6 when I lost it, down 1 when it came back) so I have no idea what Paulsen might have seen to make him think going small was a good idea. No, Calixte and AJ weren't super effective against Washington, but taking them out of the game meant Boyd was trying to defend him in the post. Aggravating. I hope they're both healthy.

What a joke. He really said that?
