St Johns vs St Peters - 12/3

This is basically a warmup for the big showdown w/ WVU at the garden on Saturday.

St Peters has lost to bryant and wagner this year.  They are terrible.

I would like to see 2 things in this game:
 
1- Dunn getting the starting nod.  Its time.  Rutherford is not a starting pg in the big east.  You need to score in this league and he just doesnt.  Mike needs to do the right thing and play your best players. 

2- Find more minutes for the duke.  Earlington is the heart and soul of this team and brings the toughness and hustle we really need.  I think he only got 12 minutes last game.  He needs 20 plus minutes a night.

Go Johnnies!!!

Kick off is in 4 hours.  Where the heck is everyone?

Pretty funny! As a friend of mine used to say when he had no intention of going somewhere, "I'll meet you there.". Actually would have gone tonight but had to give up tickets to attend a holiday concert with my wife.

I don't think 5 best players = best starting lineup.

I prefer Dunn off the bench. Adds scoring punch and spark to 2nd unit and ball doesn't have enough air for Dunn/Heron/LJ.

It's almost like when we brought Burrell off the bench so he wouldn't pick up a dumb foul in first 4 min and see how refs are calling things. Game slowed down and he could settle in.

I'm convinced Justin Champagnie is in Queens and Julian Champagnie is in Pitt. They did a freaky Friday. Great start

LJ should be the backup point guard. Dunn is a mess. We are destroying them. He comes in and turns it over, gives them free baskets and runs nothing at all.

Agreed.  Saturday will be a great test.

This is gonna be a lopsided slop fest

St Peters=Little Sisters of the Poor

Dunn is just such a ball hog, mainly the reason he is not starting.

St Peters=Little Sisters of the Poor

Has to be the worst team we have played so far

Dunn is just such a ball hog, mainly the reason he is not starting.

He's a low percentage volume scorer. He is what he is.

He's a capable scorer and we will need that especially when he gets streaky hot.

I love dunn.  You guys are crazy.

What I don't like so far is it doesn't seem that we get easy purposeful baskets. We're making some tough shots simply because we are bigger faster stronger.

Also defensively there are so many lapses. It's masked because St. Peters is slow and not good but if we play a capable team those are wide open shots.

Heaver.  Until he starts to give it up I think his time should be limited.  Poor shot selection.  But he can score and is best off the bench when he can be a prime option.

Everytime i think u guys may be right about dunn, i watch rutherford and yearn for dunn to come back in.

This is not the way we want to score. Champagnie isn’t going to be left wide open for three on Saturday. They need to set more screens and get guys open. This one on one crap will be the death of them.

Neither are the guy we want out there, but Dunn isn’t running anything at all.
