right over your head buddy, feel free to stay out of something that has nothing to do with you. But thanks for the dynamite drop in like "wouldn't have changed the fact that Cronin sucks". Very productive retort.

That was kind of my point. Clearly they made big plays on us coming down the stretch...including some very tough 3's. We left them open a couple of times but they landed some well guarded 3's as well. We have one player who can do that right now...Evans. They have two guys who can be guarded and make a step back 3 if needed. That is something that comes very in handy in March!!

david aka the TYZ will become famous soon enough
My fault with cronin in this game was him not calling a TO late in the first half when RI was making their run. You have a use it or lose it timeout and he took it with him to halftime. When facing a hostile crowd, you have to be extra careful of how big momentum can swing. A timeout and several minute stoppage in play and setting up your offense again rather than scrambling could have been huge.

Yah...he seems to prefer to let them play unless it's a late game crucial situation or end of half play call. It seems he wants the players to play through a tough run. I don't mind the confidence in his players but sometimes its necessary.
