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

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.)

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

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

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.

Well, basically this is the same penalty North Carolina got except for the penalties.

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.

Seriously, here’s the story.

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!

When he was a little kid, they called him “Squirt”

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.

After the Miami game, I really don’t understand how anyone gave up or couldn’t watch. I basically told the three people I was watching with to get tf out of my face if they thought it was over at the half. (my wife and our two best friends). They stayed, and it was really quiet for a while. Then we went down to Mass Street and high fived a few thousand people. We’re still friends and I’m still married. It was a risk I was willing to take.

I’m rooting for the guy like crazy, but I just can’t imagine success with Bobby starting at point right now. I figured he’d be like an Elijah Johnson kind of dude. Sitting on the bench with a load of talent waiting for his chance. But his ball handling is not good. Passing is bad unless you can catch with your knees. I can’t tell if he knows how to run the offense let alone knows how to control a game. He’s had plenty of chances to run the show and the results have not been good… yet.

Yeah, I know how things ended with EJ too against Michigan, but he carried a load on his shoulders his senior year.

I like our chances against Kentucky more than any remaining b12 road game

points off turnovers: BU: 21, KU: 7

Defense was pretty good in the 2nd half. We hit the freebies. Our bench is basically useless.

That’ll do it. Refs hurt, but too many mistakes when we had a chance

Bill looked up at the scoreboard, like, Oh, we could still win this crapfest

@approxinfinity I know, we need Dajuan’s D more than anything right now

Good effort, Gradey, but I think that was off Baylor

take Harris out. Put Zach in. Let wilson run point

watch for the ticky tack whistles now to make sure Baylor wins
