24-25 Season

Sad trombone

 

Got harder than expected, then more comfortable than expected, then nervy again. But I think that's that

 

Finally, my word.

 

Oh [uck fay] you Dennis

 

Throw it in the lane

 

Threw it off them lol. That's what you get

 

If you'd told me before they game that we'd only force three turnovers, I would've expected a double-digit loss.

 

This team just keeps winning. Not sure exactly how they are keeping it up with such a thin roster.

 

A lot of lucky bounces for mizzou in that one and some terrible wasted opportunities under the rim and at the line... still won

 

Igor and ZZ seemed to benefit from the game off.

That was an entertaining one.

 

Hopefully Dubar can break out of this. He doesn’t need to be doing anything other than rebounding/put back dunks/wide open 3s though.

 

Tough minutes tonight.

That's an amazing stat. Is it also true that no team had ever played five consecutive games against top 25 opponents, let alone top 15?

 

This noon tip off is not conducive to my Saturday plans.

 

He is bordering on unplayable at this point and if Igor’s strong showing against Mizzou is a sign the light is coming on for him, playing DD becomes a luxury more than a necessity anyway imo.

My guess is if 5 year eligibility passes, DD is the only senior who won’t be invited back next year.

 

I just can’t get over Dubar’s shot. I’ve never seen a shot where the ball looks so much like a weapon coming out of a shooter’s hand.

 

It does boggle the mind how his numbers were so good at Hofstra. His jumper and his free throws look like Shaq. He is now 24% from 3 and 42% from the line this year.

 

You can’t stand like he does at the line and be consistent. At no time in a game are you lined up at the basket like he does at ft line.
I still think he’s got a chance to help. He’s getting pulled right now and confidence low.
His initial block iir led to another block and Chaz 3 in a big game recently. He just needs to see one go in. Doesn’t have enough arch and aiming.
If we are struggling and need help, I don’t mind him in the paint for a little half hook.

 

This time of year it feels like you almost have to waste a day to watch a 2 hour game when it’s at 11 am.
