We will lose.
And the board will act like the world is ending yet again.

Its going to get worse and worse...I thought after our last win everyone would be saying NCAAs again but now we're predicting final 4s. :)  I shudder to think what will be said after our next loss.  Fire Lavin.com?  Disband the program?  :)

We can beat just about anybody on our schedule if we play well.  Good shot at winning tomorrow, but have to shoot at least a reasonable percentage and slow their offense down a bit.

Beginning of year I said Top 4 in BE was Cuse, Uconn, Lville and Marquette.  Outside of that its a toss up.  Still feel the same way and we already had our doors waxed by 2 of the those 4.

I think Ville drops and Georgetown in the top 4 overall by season's end.  Funny thing is that Uconn had the shooting game of their lives against us and we had the worst shooting day of our lives against the Ville.  I really think we could have been competitive with both on a different day.  We have our chance Monck forward though.  No need to look at our bad losses.  Just try to earn wins.

Got to close out quickly on Odom and Crowder and slow the game down. If we let Marquette get to 70 we can't win.

St. John's - 64
Marquette - 60

i gave my prediction before that we'll lose.  but if we are to have any chance:

1. keep it tight the 1st half (low scoring)
2. minimize the 3 ball
3. get off the quick start in 2nd half (especially DLO)

I think an interesting key for the game is if Amir can stick Odom, and hold him to modest numbers.

I want to see Amir playing good defense without gambling so much.   I think he takes too many chances when his man is bringing up the ball, forcing everyone to helpout when his man goes bye.

Yea, he does. Probably worked in high school. I see him improving as the season wears on. He took a big step in the last game.

We are on the up and up, i think that tip in works wonders for Harkless for the rest of the year. If we play with confidence, skies the limit. I think we overrate their coach a bit because he blurted out some random # of screens we set in a game a few years ago.
