Win two & UA finishes no worse than 4th. If masslo & nh spit; nh 9-7 .5625; UA with two wins 7-5 .5833. Finish 3 and I think UA would only have to win one game in the first round. 1 & 2 get byes; 3,6,7 and 4,5,8,9 or something similar round one. Assuming, 3 seed would play winner of 6-7 and in other bracket 4-9 and 5-8. 

The critical thing is UA winning two would go along way in showing they belong with the elites this year. Such a screwed-up year, in so many ways; winning two would give them a boost of confidence and show fans and opponents they are something to take seriously. A split or worse just still leaves too may un-answered questions for ALL.

masslo = Lowell. If they spilt or if Lowell wins two and Ua wins two, UA has the best %age of all teams with two more wins than loses and hence 3 seed

This is an embarrassing display of offense.  No discipline. No movement.

This looks like a 6th grade CYO team - 12 points thus far!!!

As I mentioned in my last rant, this team is just not good and there is no future - it’s time for a change. Thank you Coach for building this program.

Wow, not what I expected.  How does our offense go from what they’ve been doing the last handful of games to this?

[BestDaneSinceHamlet]

My biggest criticism of Brown had always been his failure to adjust the offense as the game evolves. 
 

the middle has been clogged all game yet he’s trying the same thing.  Either he’s being ignored or...

Hoping for a 4 seed or even a 3 seed??  Not even worthy of a pumpkin seed, lol.

They can keep clogging the middle because we can't hit diddly from outside.

Rizzuto is a tidy 3-15 (1-9 from 3).  Our starting guards are 3-20

Start chucking 3’s.  Get Healy some looks.
