Unbelievable.


Jan 30, 2018, 8:32 PM

Why does this continue to happen?

Re: Unbelievable.

Because we have a coach that tells his team that we are playing soft at half with a 16 point lead. Brownell found a way to suck all of the fun out of it.

He was calling them soft after they allowed an 8-0 run in the first 2 minutes of the first half

Always have these scoring droughts in the Brownlee era.

Like we didn't in the Purnell era? We lost to Illinois once


Jan 30, 2018, 9:23 PM [ in reply to Re: Unbelievable. ]

when we had a 20+ point lead with 10 minutes to go in the game.

Some people are just purely ignorant.

I think the offending posters are mostly just young

but they're writing in absolutes.....and they've not been alive enough to post in absolutes.

Exactly, they also seem to fail to realize that basketball


Jan 30, 2018, 9:30 PM

is a game of runs. Start of the second half was 8-0, 7-0, and something like 12-1.

Re: Exactly, they also seem to fail to realize that basketball


Jan 30, 2018, 9:34 PM

It’s all about momentum in every sport. It’s the fact that we continually can get large leads and next thing we know we can’t make a basket in 5 minutes of game time.

I get teams struggle but this seems to be a normal occurrence.

2024 student level member flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Do you watch other college basketball or just Clemson?


Jan 30, 2018, 9:35 PM

If you watched other teams you would see that the exact same thing happens everywhere. Momentum is much more prevalent in basketball than most all other sports just due to the back and forth nature.

It happened with purnell too...

What? Beating the holes? That hardly ever happens


Jan 30, 2018, 9:23 PM

so what exactly is the point of this poast?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: What? Beating the holes? That hardly ever happens


Jan 30, 2018, 9:32 PM

And of course the original intent is assumed based on the outcome.

I meant this post as why we will continually get large leads and crumble. The outcome of the game is insignificant to this point.

Re: What? Beating the holes? That hardly ever happens


Jan 30, 2018, 9:33 PM

Kind of like how UNC had a large lead that crumbled at UNC? What about the large lead that NC State had with less than 2 minutes to go that crumbled?

Those are two examples of other teams losing leads to Clemson.

It happens..wait for it...everywhere.

Re: What? Beating the holes? That hardly ever happens


Jan 30, 2018, 9:38 PM

Please tell me the last time you’ve seen a team not score in close to, what, 12 minutes? (Referencing UVA). I get teams struggle and it happens across the board. That’s sports. It just seems like Clemson can’t get out of scoring droughts in a timely manner regularly.

Re: What? Beating the holes? That hardly ever happens


Jan 30, 2018, 9:41 PM

You're referencing one game, when we went on the road, against the #2 team in the country, the first game after our team leader and top 2 player was injured for the season.

If that's the vacuum you want to judge the team in then go ahead, but it's hilariously idiotic to do so.

Re: What? Beating the holes? That hardly ever happens


Jan 30, 2018, 9:52 PM

I don’t believe those two factors allow for much room of excuse to go 12 minutes without a single point. Yes, that impacted it but I see no way to justify going 12 minutes without a point. Yes it’s one of the worst games but it still aids the question of why we continually find ourselves in long droughts without points.

I’ve overall been really impressed with this team and the way they finish games but I can never understand how we can’t get past the droughts. :)

Which games have we had large leads in and then crumbled this year?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

The outcome of the game is the only thing that is


Jan 30, 2018, 9:43 PM [ in reply to Re: What? Beating the holes? That hardly ever happens ]

significant

Enjoy... we won... I know it disappoints you, but most of us are actually quite happy with a solid win against UNC.

Re: Unbelievable.


Jan 30, 2018, 9:55 PM

Please share where I said I wasn’t pleased with a win? I rarely criticize something about the basketball team because I’ve enjoyed watching them play this season and think they close games well, even if we don’t win. It just seems like we continually have these long periods without scoring, or score very minimal points in a long period of time.
