foul disparity high but getting hit up top and some block charge situations didnt go our way. esp first half with their deep balls deep in the clock just kills your momo
in the cameron of connecticut

casey simmons got ripped off. jumps over some guy, finshes and gets called for a charge.
then dunks on xaivian lee and gets called for another one.
both were nasty

princeton can beat anyone if they are on.
the beauty is tonight they kind of were
and we shot like garbage at the foul like even early.
and danny wolf put the nastiest crossover on xaivian lee. then broke martinis ankle
and he dunked on some poor sap.
and he cant jump yet
its gross what he can at that size
just gross

even citing the foul disparity as a thing means you werent watching or dont know the game.
1. princeton fouled the last 2 mins on purpose
2. i dont think i saw a post up move from princeton. if you shoot step back 3s almost exclusively you aint getting calls
lastly i tht yale got a bad whistle. still

That was the most remarkable thing to me. Princeton had absolutely zero going on drive-wise, and Yale smothered their back cuts. Absolutely all they got on offense were pull-ups and spot-ups. That's an extremely bad sign for Princeton in general - you don't want to need to shoot 45% or better from three to win.

Sorry, but a 22 foul shot disparity is not explained by
a few intentional fouls. Mbeng fouled Lee on a number of drives.
Yale played well, and deserved to win, but don't try to say the calls went Princeton's way.

I'm not sure I disagree with James all that much here. Princeton just shot jumpers all game, and you don't draw fouls doing that. I dunno if I'd say Yale got a bad whistle, but it was hardly a good one (when the World's Biggest Princeton Homer thinks that Casey Simmons' two charges were baloney, I can point to no stronger evidence that they were).

One reason a team sometimes shoots jumpers on the road is they realize that are not getting calls when they drive.

thinking there is a lot you have not read.
Disagreement is not stupidity, but I guess
you prefer living in an echo chamber.

princeton played very physical the good news it looked like my sons opponent thurs night pushing him and hitting him up top bc he is 6'11 and they are 6'4
the bad news for us is princeton is more skilled on the other end

savage is a good dude.
epic pick up battles in nyc w that guy. funny he plays w the yale alumni
but he also wld tell u what i did
look for princeton to drive the ball in game 2 and not settle as much
it is fools gold in a high level game not too no matter how hot
and wont work back to back
but nothing to do w home or road esp when not tested
sadly for us mitch knows this round 2 will be different.
the adjustment yale made is moving wolf arnd and putting him in the slot post. helped and wldve againsg harvard too
princeton answered w the quick double. theoretically it shld work bc you defend 2 shooters bc you dont have to guard knowling deep.
but the solid passing and cuts answered it
