Georgetown Game

Lavin's comments fwiw;

“@STJ_Basketball: #STJBB PREGAME QUOTES: @STJCoachLavin Preview No. 19/22 Georgetown: http://t.co/Dk6kSTey”

Since it is the writer putting down Lavin's words, isn't it "undue", rather than "undo" pressure?  Journalism!

He's the 2nd leading scorer in the BE under Lavin's system---top 10 in the country.  What would he score, 30, under a different coach?  Only at Iona.

Might score less in fact, but he would shoot a higher % and not have to work as hard for his points. Basically would be more efficient and you would not see him jack up bad shots.

Double digit loss. On to next year it is.

Georgetown Hoyas at St. John's Red Storm
Projected point spread: Near pick 'em
The Red Storm let a trio of winnable games get away from them in the past few weeks, losing in overtime at Villanova, by a single bucket at home to Rutgers and by seven at home to UNC Asheville (blowing a 12-point lead with less than 12 minutes to play). It was a similar story last season, when the frosh-laden Red Storm lost five times by seven points or fewer.

This season's team is still a very young squad, as the top 10 scorers in coach Steve Lavin's rotation are either freshmen or sophomores. Right now this team is executing much better on the defensive end of the court than it is on offense.

Georgetown blasted St. John's in both meetings last season, winning by 20 and 10. But John Thompson III's Princeton offense has been completely shut down in the past two games, as the Hoyas failed to reach 50 points in losses to Marquette and Pitt. The Hoyas were held to 37 points earlier this season in a defensive struggle against Tennessee -- and won the game. Look for another low-scoring struggle here in a game that should stay well under the total.
The pick: Take the under

Most of that seems to come from the other site for some unknown reason. Pretty strange actually

If Carmine stereotype all white players I will age stereotype.  Older generation isn't a fan of Dee's theatrics.   Younger fans are.

Even blind centarians can see that D'lo's our best player and Mvp by a wide margin.  Any Johnny fan that doesn't like him's an idiot.

What's the total on this game?  Got to love the over.

Per twitter Greg Whittington, georgetowns second leading scorer and rebounder is out today for violation of team rules.

 Greene starting again...

Good morning everyone.

Defense shaky to start.

 I actually think they are playing pretty well. Once again, we can't score.

Obekpa passes Berry, congrats to him!

Branch looking for the open man, even if it is Phil Greene. Lol, refreshing.

Eh, I just don't like the wide open shots G'Town is getting. No doubt Branch has better PG skills than Greene, but he needs to be more careful with the ball.

Those are the plays we need from Pointer.

 Gtown's defense is stifling

Rough turnover there from Marco.
