Fellas, this game should of been a blow out from the start, Seton Hall possed nothing of an offensive threat. In return we as a team did not take advantage of this. Dont get me wrong I'am happy with a win. I mean a win is a win, but this should of been a blow out we should of cleared the benches and seen others play. But instead this team continues to play to level of its opponent. They need to get a killer instinct and bury teams when they have the opportunity. None of this stuff we saw last night because all it would of taken was for Seton Hall to go on a serious run and the result would of been different. Watch the acc game last night after our boys and Dukes opponent tried to kill them now thats what I see that we do not have at this time. Hopefully it is to come hopefully

It's not killer instinct. It's turnovers.
It's plagued this team all season, but we've played well enough in other aspects (shooting, defense) to cover it up. Almost all of our big wins or blowout wins didn't have 15+ turnovers.
We had 17! Princeton offenses playing at our pace should have 10 at most. Add the 7 possessions and 7 points back in, and we're at a game that ranged from 13-23 points.

I agree entirely. We were on the verge of blowing it open last night but didn't have that killer instinct yet. But when you haven't had a fighter in your corner in years, those things fade. On the other hand, I think its coming back and we'll be looking at some blowouts in the years to come. On the good side of the blowout that is...

Seton Hall is not a bad team guys. They played UCONN, Pitt, and Notre Dame pretty tough. So yeah we played sloppy, but Seton Hall is no push over. I don't think we lack a killer instinct. With the constructed team we have now, a 10 point margin could be considered a blowout in the Big East for us. This conference is tough from top to bottom, unlike the other "heralded" conference that shall remain nameless.  |

No I'm not saying Seton Hall isnt talented at all, but my point is when they missed their first 8 shots we should been up on them like a school of sharks. Wake took it to Duke last night both teams can shoot but Wake was playing like they wanted it. I just dont see that from this squad, and I feel in the end when we need it it will not be there either.

I'm with the_way on this one. SHU is much better than we all think. The way we play and the structure with which we play pretty much limits the ability to win by larger margins. Our game is to play in the 50's and 60's which we did to perfection last night.
As we get better recruits in our style will change and the scoring will go up.
Again, we have 3 freshmen starting. They just aren't going to have the killer instinct yet. I'd rather have them learn how to win games even if they don't have their A game then to blow teams out.
