Will the turmoil in AZ continue.  Seems to be some dissension with Turner, Chol and Sidiki not getting time.  Newsflash its only gonna get worse with the class coming in next year.

My prediction is we win.  What score?  I'm not that good

Still waiting for Nuri to hit something over 10 ft. out.  If he could his dribble drive game would be so much better.  One guy with a hot hand would make all the difference vs Zona.  Another slow start and we're probably cooked.

Where did I mention Nuri in my post?

I predict a D'Angelo Harrison-Nick Johnson sh*t talking exhibition.  They may be just what the other needed to play with swagger.  20+ out of each of them tonight.

I wouldn't be surprised to see one (if, not both) of 'em pick up a tech.  Especially, if Johnson is primarily guarding Harrison.  Hopefully, Harrison can keep his emotions in check.

Johnnies might pull off a win here. The kids might come out too excited and struggle in the first 10 mins. Coach Lav will be able to calm' em down and play great D. I think it will be a low scorring game and the johnnies will win anoher come from behind game with forced to's and fastbreak points. score in the low 60's.

I see a close game with a late run by STJ to put it away. Our defense needs to step it up bigtime! Hit FT down the stretch but I believe our outside shooters need to knock down some shots. We take it 87-84.

I think we match up well with 'Zona. I think GG will have a big game. I also think Harrison will finally find his shot. I think we pull out a close one 82-79.

77-73 SJU.

How the flock much better can his dribble drive game be?   HE's about 85% thru 3 games.

Arizona lost their "mojo".  No Momo-no win.  Go Redmen by 7.

This is Harrison's coming out party.  I predict 6-8 3's for him and leads the way with 25+.  Nuri also has a big game. 

St. John's: 77
Arizona: 71

Only way St. Johns wins  tonight is if they shoot the ball well, especially 3-pointers. There wont be many offensive rebounds going our way so the shots had better go down.

Just hope our kids don't have a case of Gardenitis and that they give a good account of themselves. First real test and I admit to having no idea of what to expect although I do think than Arizona should be better than they have shown so far so I am concerned they may find their game tonite.

We fall behind big, make a nice second half comeback that falls short becuase we can't hit free throws down the stretch.
Arizona 79 SJU 72

We are SJU takes the win this time
