If they shut down Perry Ellis again, we have no chance.

RE: Seton Hall
I think the guys will be on fire, and we’ll win by 20+
(Don’t worry, I’ll avoid the game chat so my optimism won’t ruin the downer party.)

RE: The Overrated ACC
@Blown I’m tied for second to last place ahead of someone who didn’t finish filling out the bracket in the bucket challenge.

RE: Lite and dark
As I recall, the Lite group was bitterly divided between “tastes great” and “less filling”

RE: Time For Self To Kill C5
Did anyone actually watch the last ten-ish minutes of the Tech game?
Definitely slower pace with Lucas in, but I’d say we played more under control with Lucas in the game than with either Bragg or Diallo (and definitely without Greene flying around).
The quarter of the game where you WIN, net production doesn’t matter.
Tied 44-44. What did Lucas do?
10:03 Lucas post layup
8:52 Lucas screen for Mason made 3
8:31 Lucas boxout, fouled on defensive rebound
8:10 Lucas screen on Svi missed 3
6:02 Lucas assist on Selden jam
5:04 Lucas screen for Mason made 3
3:20 Lucas bounce pass to SVI who missed the dunk, made 1 FT
2:25 Lucas screen for Selden’s made 3
1:42 Lucas ssist/lob for Ellis jam
On Devonte’s layup at 1:08 Lucas screened Selden’s guy and Selden would have had an easy dunk if Devonte needed to dish of the ball. By that point the game was won.
Lucas got scored on a couple times in the 2-4 minute range, but other than that, I understand why Self is comfortable with Lucas out there. He knows exactly where he’s supposed to be.
Until Diallo figures that out, it’s going to be Lucas.

RE: Kevin McCullar is returning!!
HUGE. Kev coming back is ten times bigger than any of the new guys, including Dickenson.
I’m not sure if y’all remember how inept last year’s team was with Kev hurt or on the bench. The guy is locked in like a coach on the floor. Juando and Kev + any three other halfway competent players is a damn good team.

RE: Mercy- - Mizzery got blasted
Well, basically this is the same penalty North Carolina got except for the penalties.

Ostertag on Ice
Being a retired professional basketball player sounds pretty rough. Greg Ostertag–bored with golfing every day–decided to become the world’s tallest hockey player.
Interesting quote:
“I’ll be the first to admit that I never reached my full potential as a basketball player. I took it for granted that I was 7 feet tall, and I rode that.”
Yeah, well we all kind of figured that!

RE: Jesus Christ, can we please push the reset button on 2020?
I love the masks. Haven’t had to trim my nose hairs in months! Thanks to my expressive eyebrows and dancing eyes I’m still able to connect personally with people in Menards, Dillons, the liquor store… well, that’s pretty much it.

RE: Tourney hopes
@Texas-Hawk-10 just pointing out that his bracket matchup predictions are awful. His schtick is literally fantasizing/predicting seeding and matchups in a bracket format.

RE: Bracket chat
Am I old enough to remember when we had to buy a newspaper on Monday to see the matchups and we only found out the game times maybe on Tuesday?

RE: Bracket chat
Last game of the night on Thursday? I like it! We’ll have the whole day to worry about it while watching (hopefully) a bunch of upsets during the day.

RE: Tourney hopes
Lunardi got 4 matchups correct this year! Out of the big 32 games. Two were 1-16 matchups and two were 2-15 matchups. The dude is a genius!

RE: Bracket chat
West looks easy. Our bracket’s top teams have had recent losses.

RE: Elmarko
I’d be thrilled is Elmarko comes back. You can tell he has all the tools to be a dominant player, but for some reason he’s just not aggressive enough. Usually Freshmen screw up by trying to do too much, but Elmarko barely tried to do anything. Was flat out weird to me.

RE: Tourney hopes
This is my annual post pointing out that Lunardi absolutely sucks at predicting tournament matchups. He literally got only three matchups correct out of the entire bracket a couple years ago. We’re not playing Yale in the first round. Good grief.

RE: Short Handed Hawks vs Cincy Game Thread
@Texas-Hawk-10 I’m saying he never should have set foot in Lawrence. It sounds like you are explaining if only he was still on the team, we could have been better… because of his non rapist defense and shot creating skills. If you’re saying the mistake was recruiting him instead of going full on for Harrison Ingram then I agree.

RE: Short Handed Hawks vs Cincy Game Thread
Why keep bring up Morris? He shouldn’t have been here.We didn’t lose that POS

RE: Short Handed Hawks vs Cincy Game Thread
broke 50. yay. I guess I’ll try to enjoy our one more game for this train wreck of a season. I doubt we’ll see Kev or Hunter in the big dance.
