And he misses the second.

Lamb fouls out.

[Lazeek]

Harris chokes and misses 2nd one!!!!!  Down 1 with Demons going to line.  NW State already playing hey, hey, hey goodbye!!!!  A little premature with only a 1 pt lead!!!

They play it when players foul out

[geezer]

2nd time this year Harris has a chance to tie or win a game at the free throw line and chokes.

[Lazeek]

700 people there.......how pathetic!!!

NWST misses and gets offensive rebound, but looses it Out of Bounds.......

James enters game with 4 seconds left!!!

[AggiesAreWe]

Final


LU       68
NWS    70

[Lazeek]

LAMAR chokes it off and losses 70-68!!!!!!

[AggiesAreWe]

How do you put someone in with 4 seconds left to shoot the last shot who has not played all game???????

[coachacola]

At least Roc is making it easier for Simmons and Tidwell to make a coaching change when the season is over!  ;D

[geezer]

Will Hofferth tick Roc off by asking how you can blow an 18 point lead?  Didn't get the chance, no post game interview.

[Lazeek]

I have figured it out..........he is trying to lose games!!!!  He is a genius!!!!! ::) ::) ::)

[AggiesAreWe]

NWS best player and current SLC player of the week Baker scores ZERO points and they still win!!!


Roc declines post game interview with KLVI.

It's like he's inviting it!! >:(

[CThoops]

I think he is done at Lamar.. That right about seals it

[geezer]

Even though it was a loss, is it possible that Roc can see the positive of playing two bigs and moving Lamb to the wing?  It seemed like the choke times started when we did not have two of the three 6' 9" plus guys in at the same time.

To me, that's classless. If you got beat (again), be a man and own up to an interview and admit that you didn't execute a good game plan.

They were in foul trouble big time. You run the risk of getting them fouled out earlier than they did. It's hard to be physical in the paint when you know you're one ticky-tack foul away from being done for the night

[geezer]

Very interesting first three calls on Gresham Live are vents about LU blowing another lead and implying Roc should be gone.

[bigred360]

Unbelievable!  ::)

[Javelina]

if Lamar keeps choke i mean roc for next season I saw we boycott the season and no fans show up for the mens games!!!  that should send a message.  better yet I say we boycott the rest of there home games this year to send that message!!!!!

[Guest Cards R Us]

With the exception of Devon Lamb, Roc isn't using any of the "9th ranked recruiting class" he brought in SPECIFICALLY TO WIN GAMES.  He's relying on the same players who couldn't win last year, and are proving again why they can't win this year. 

Leading scorer Michael James - didn't play.
Multiple 20+ point scorer Melo Adams - didn't play.
Orlando Brazier - 6 minutes
Potent scorer Brandon Davis - 3 minutes

And for some inexplicable reason, the team's best overall player this season, Milk Harris, didn't start and was limited to 16 minutes. 

Here are some other baffling moves.  Coy Custer playing big minutes? Tre Lynch inserted into the game during the final seconds?

For seemingly the millionth time this season, Roc has used a different starting lineup, he's benched players out of spite towards them, he's made poor coaching decisions when it mattered most, he's relied on the WRONG core of players to win, and he's shown just how little class he has by not taking part in a postgame interview.

[AggiesAreWe]

I still do not understand the "different" starting lineup deal. Lamar has played 23 games and it's my understanding that Roc has inserted 21 different starting lineups this season.

That's a coach that is totally clueless.
