Pretty questionable foul by PJ Hardy to give them a 4 point play after we were up by 2

So tired of this crap of a coach we have.
Can’t get his guys to finish games.

Thanks. I was following on stat tracker and couldn't believe we gave up that foul on the 3 pt shot.

And the no-call when Wilson drove the lane. He got hammered.

Four point play with 25 seconds left was the nail in the coffin. MBB falls 75-78.

It was awful. There was no contact.

.@DreKfox with the 3 from the corner and the foul, he completes the 4-pt play to give the Jags the lead back.

Is it just me or do I hear Dandy Don singing.

Poor coaching.
Jalen should have been coached not to cross the free throw line until the ball hits the rim.lane violation.shouldn't have happened.poor coaching.
We gave up four points on inbound plays. Our defense of inbound plays under the opponents goal should not be that porous. This happens way too often.
We finally did get Jalen two shots from the free throw line to defeat their zone.after Cedric made 4 of 5 long range 3s.that must have softened their zone!
Tough loss.

Awful call but it shouldn't have come to that if we had some semblance of an offense except to jack up 3s. Thankfully, Russell got hot and kept it close.

Now official we will finish the reg season with a losing record

It was a questionable call on the four point play. I don't fault PJ for that play. Great shot by the Jag player there. However there was one bad decision by Hardy that may have played a role in the outcome. Tie game right before the half and PJ lets a three pointer go with 16 seconds remaining. Could have taken the clock to 3 seconds. Of course the Jags score at the first half buzzer to go up by two. PJ's shot was open but still a bad decision. Two second half plays I recall also played big role. One was a missed layup by Johnson under the basket. He simply left it short and probably thought he was more contested than he actually was. Another play was a missed layup by Wilson. In this case he stole the ball and had a clear path to the basket. He was caught not knowing whether to dunk it or lay it up and when he tried to lay it up over the rim it rolled out. Every single play counts when you are in the situation we are in and details like that generally cost you. In our case, they cost us every time.
