i'm not sure if bishop playing with battle is sustainable

to clarify, Bishop does not find Battle enough, and I think Battle is getting frustrated

Could tell Battle was clearly frustrated on the wing when Bishop wouldn’t pass.

I despise Bishop’s game, everything from his fake over confident swag to his selfish play, more so than Jair Bolden and I thought I’d never say that.

Again. This dude is straight a trash. Absolutely fitting ending.

A tale of two halves...James Bishop with another huge game. 21  points 8  boards 5  dimes two blocks and one very strange, long 3, down 1 with 5 seconds to go. 

on to the next one

Definitely one of the worst final shots out of a timeout I’ve seen in program history.  Just horrible.  That was what they got out of a timeout to win the game?  Dribble four seconds and airball a 30+ footer?

As that TO was called I called exactly how that play would turn out....and would you figure I was right.

Horrendous by Bishop at the end. Why even bother calling the TO when you weren't going to draw up a real play

The worst part is that the previous two time outs, JC called great plays.

Also, fire JAMION. An air ball was the best play he could come up with? This loss was sadder than Mojo’s 22-0 against stony brook only to lose.

If those last 10 seconds weren’t clear enough... Obvious that Bishop and Jamion are the problem to this team. The toxicity of Bishops play and Christians confidence behind it is going to end up with core players leaving.

On second watch of the final play it looked like JNJ would've been open for an alley-oop. His defender was no where near him.

Honestly, I thought Bishop would blow it up with a wild drive' and maybe get bailed out with weak foul. Didn't count on a no pass near 30 footer hitting nothing but...air
Just a gentle suggestion: We might want to work on that overtime last minute play.

Before getting serious, I'll make this one joke about the last shot...IT'S THE STEPH CURRY EFFECT!!! Steph Curry has made taking long, ill-advised 3-point shots a commonplace in basketball

About the game, there was no positives, you can't blow a 19-point lead to an average or below average mid-major like William & Mary. Wasn't William & Mary missing a key player too? I thought the announcers mentioned this at tip off. The only hope is that the players elevate their game when conference play starts(Georgetown somehow did this when they played better teams) and they are no longer playing mid-majors. If the level of play remains the same, I'm not sure who GW can beat in the A10 right now, maybe Fordham?

Exactly.
