Rough start to the second half​

It’s been a rough start to the second half for Miami, which is just 2-6 from the field so far. Virginia is faring slightly better, 3-7. The Canes just don’t have an answer on defense.

HALFTIME: Miami 23, Virginia 38​

Just an embarrassing first half for the Hurricanes.

Miami has put themselves into some trouble heading into halftime. Very slow and sloppy start for the first half for both teams.

Tru Washington leads Miami with 9 points, Shelton Henderson with eight, along with three Hurricane spiliting a piece of two: Noam, Malik, and Dante.

Canes shooting 32.1% FG, 10.0% 3PT.

Halftime adjustments are definitely going to be needed. Let's grab a snack.

The Canes have arrived

Jai Lucas's Miami Hurricanes are in the building.

 

Still trying to decide which zebras are more corrupt, the ones in this game or the ones in the baseball game? Atrocious!

Neither team showed up for Miami. Officials aside.

Late rally time...

 

Nobody within 10ft of that 3pt shot

 

Sorry, you might not have been watching. We sucked, but they were good for 6-7 bull**** points for UVA. We are to blame for our ****** play, but calling a spade a spade. We have cold ugly stretches in every game…there were some absolute BS calls…Jai was not asking them how their family was doing

Sorry but the refs aren't giving up endless offensive boards and playing like Charmin on the offensive end. Blame the blues all you want but this is trash ball by Miami.

 

lol. Can’t leave a guy wide open

 

Anyone drawing any conclusions about how we’re going to fair next weekend from a game against a top 10 team has the IQ of a mosquito

It’s very fair to say this team looks tired. The 40 minute effort you’ve gotten all year, isn’t there anymore.

maybe let Dovrat play more than 2 minutes in that half. eh?

Blaming depth for this effort is making an excuse.

 

Salih does nothing well

 

the last time Altuntas (more awful than ever) won a contested ball battle the price of gas was 0 (we used horses)

 

we def need some shooting next year

 

Jai just saying **** it. lets play 11 some more so he can just foul everybody

 

This is the kind of game where White starts hitting every 3 from here out too

thats offensive to mosquitos

 

Hehe, Altuntas, jesus, all this guy does is take up space. God bless if he’s on a $40k a year scholly

 

I would be fine not winning if we could actually play a competitive game…losing and looking like **** isn’t particularly ideal

 

Most embarrassing game of Jai’s career. Terrible effort and attitude from multiple leaders.

Jai has disappointed me tonight as well, great year but his player management, ref management, demeanor... doesn't seem ideal.

 

Tre Donaldson with 0 points huh

 

I just don’t understand why Malovec is out there

 

down by nearly 20 is inexcusable
