This choke wasn't as bad as blowing the semifinal game to Maryland a few years ago. But this is still pretty pathetic.

2/8/2009 4:08:19 PM

Sidney lost a 19 point lead


^ That maryland team was possessed, they did the same thing to duke

This game was far worse

can someone please tell me what happened? I checked it at halftime, we are way up. I check about 5 mins ago, and watch our team lose.

2/8/2009 4:08:52 PM

EPIC FAIL

2/8/2009 4:08:52 PM

Lights out first half, shaky second half, shitty OT

There's your summary

Sidney called time out right away when we were tied towards the end of regulation instead of getting the ball to half court first. that was a coaching mistake and there were multiple others.

2/8/2009 4:09:03 PM

i wish dennis horner wasn't so terrible

2/8/2009 4:09:04 PM

you gonna check the monitor now refs? a second ran off after the whistle

2/8/2009 4:09:26 PM

Sidney didn't hit his free throws at the end of the game and we lost.

He's done this a few times and I really don't understand it. I would like to think that he knows you don't get the ball at the 3 pt line extended like in the NBA but he's making it hard on me...

^^^^^ ok change that to watch our team finish losing... as they were losing when i checked it back up

[Edited on February 8, 2009 at 4:11 PM. Reason : !]

2/8/2009 4:10:38 PM

Yeah, this isn't on Lowe. Multiple missed free throws, multiple bullshit calls that directly lead to VT points.

2/8/2009 4:11:03 PM

Its Lee Fowler's fault. He personally did miss all of those shots. Fire him.

2/8/2009 4:11:19 PM

I wish that Va. Tech didn't get so much home cooking today! And I wish that Horner could have made just one of his fucking free throws.

2/8/2009 4:11:32 PM

WOW........

^Hey, we got most of the calls in the first half. Officiating was bad for both sides today

after a brief shakeup

the universe has realigned

THAT'S SOME NC STATE SHIT

2/8/2009 4:11:53 PM

its ok guys, you made a valient effort!!!

2/8/2009 4:11:54 PM

more like multiple wankers in NC State colors leading directly to VT points

^Valiant*

2/8/2009 4:11:56 PM

cmon, you lose a 19 pt lead and cant say anything about coaching?? You have to at least acknowledge a breakdown of fundamentals. Control the ball!! Don't get away stupid turnovers. Don't put ur head down when the refs make a bad call. That sucked. Figure it out lowe

2/8/2009 4:12:09 PM

yep, i've reached my threshold, see you guys next season

2/8/2009 4:12:40 PM

I have not seen such a self-implosion since last month. Although it does not explain losing the 20 point lead, the refs were really REALLY bad in this one though.

2/8/2009 4:12:56 PM

they got all their bullshit calls late in the first half

we got all ours starting right before the midpoint of the second

plus, you know, their usual giving up in the second

2/8/2009 4:13:08 PM

turnover city again

2/8/2009 4:13:11 PM

All you stupid motherfuckers can't seriously think Sid doesn't preach fundamentals when they're fucking up. You'd have to be, well, fucking stupid to think a coach at this level tells his kids to play out of control and throw it away and miss shots and...

2/8/2009 4:13:25 PM

i agree that the very very end of regulation was not on lowe, but i also agree that the whole other part of the half is on lowe.

2/8/2009 4:13:43 PM

the 5 point swing on the bullshit intentional foul call sealed our fate

2/8/2009 4:13:49 PM

Lowe taught me that he gotta Gowe

thats fundamental

2/8/2009 4:13:52 PM

Bottom line. This is a game that should have been won(obviously). We SHOULD be 3-5 in the ACC. We SHOULD have hit our free throws at the end of the game to seal it. We missed our fts. They made their fts. That's the difference.

2/8/2009 4:14:03 PM

The rebounding down the stretch fucked everything up as well.

2/8/2009 4:14:50 PM

Wait Stimwalt, I'll make it up to you. Don't give up, our team just wasn't making their shots, that's all. Trust me, I got this.

NEGATIVE

This is the same shit that everyone said defending Herb and we were actually MAKING NCAA Tourney's then... at some point it falls on the men in charge. I'm not giving up on him, but games like today make it hard sometimes...

And we really can't even blame the past 7 or so games on Herb's players since they are the only reason we are winning ANY games.

Tracy needs to take more than 5 shots a game though... he'll be our best player next year if BC leaves.

2/8/2009 4:15:04 PM

This was a bad loss. The refs gave VT 8 free points in the second half, but fucking dennis horner and javi gonzales and their damn FTs.

Javi and fells with horrible second half turnovers, too.

Fells went MIA, we lost. We go as Fells goes.

2/8/2009 4:15:13 PM

the intentional sucked but we were still up double digits. And the fundamentals??? THey're fucking 19-22 years old...don't tell me you can't teach fundamentals. Coack K has made a pretty good career on those. Control ur dribble and make smart passes is a good thing to know when you have a lead.

2/8/2009 4:15:45 PM

It all literally came down on Horner, the game would have been out of reach and a fouling game had he hit his FTs

Lowe calls timeouts when they made runs

The endemic collapses and timidity we get at the end of games might could use some coaching to keep them from grabbing their ankles at the first sign of trouble, but individual players choking is in no way on Lowe


looks like I picked the wrong day to quit sniffing glue

2/8/2009 4:16:01 PM

This is what a choke looks like in graphical form

[Edited on February 8, 2009 at 4:19 PM. Reason : d]

2/8/2009 4:16:06 PM

Herb and Sid both recruited and coached guys on this team. You can blame both of them.

2/8/2009 4:16:12 PM

Yeah, let's fire Lowe. Flounder around the bottom of the league another 5 years and repeat that cycle. You guys are right.
