Syracuse Game Discussion

After watching Syracuse's zone, I'm embarrassed to call what we play a zone.

Cuse obviously outclassed us plain and simple. Louisville this week should be in great spirits after blowing game to ND last night. Oh well, onward and upward.

I would not mind d'lo leaving after this year

We are simply not as tough or smart as their guys. Hines has been with and Lavin and obviously they've practiced this match up zone garbage. It can work against a bad team, but you can't be this stupid to zone SU, when your zone is garbage. And ours is absolute shit.

If he and Jakarr leave, we'll average about 27 points per game next season.

Easily the worst broadcaster I have ever heard.

Brutal. Yeah because I want my team to get overly excited after a dunk while we're down 12.

He's annoying to listen to but he was right about D'lo. Saw him jawing with that guy in the front row after he hit a 3.

2 things to be worried about aside from the L:
- Jakarr going pro
- Harrison leaving. It just seems no one can get through to him. I question if he wants to be here anymore

52%!!
“@LennRobbins: Story hasn't changed..Johnnies have played for Lavin but they couldn't stop Cuse shooting 52 for the game..#stjbb #syracusebb”

“@PSBasketball: Syracuse has 20 assists in this game.  MCW has eight of them. BTriche has seven.”

Where is dlo going to go? Not the nba...Europe or the Texas penitentiary league

There are no pros on our team. Not one. They all need to grow up, and start playing harder and smarter.

I said d'lo, of course i would want Jakarr back, sometimes addition by subtraction...his attitude sucks and how many times can he blow off the staff.

I think this announcer wants to ask jimmy b out he's like chris matthews with obama, funny he never mentioned bernnie......hmmmm

JaKarr played like a grown-ass man.

And we still have no earthly clue how to play offensive basketball against a zone.

Next.

Be careful what you wish for.

Weird game, final score a little inflated toward the end. I think they can beat Louisville. JaKarr has improved tenfold. Harrison has not. On to the next one. Can't let it linger.

And we still have no earthly clue how to play offensive basketball against a zone.

And I always thought it was just Norm's fault....

Who is this color guy? He's an awful announcer.

Dan Dakich.  He mentioned Indiana more times than either team on the court.  ESPN welcomes comments on their announcers.  The number is 1-888-549-3776, option 3.  If ESPN is smart they will keep this guy covering games in farm country.  He did no homework for this game - knew nothing about this St John's team and nothing about the past history of this rivlary.  It is one thing to be obssessed with Big Ten hoops, but at least hide it and be prepared to cover the teams on the court.

He sounded drunk the entire time.

Only correct comment he made was about us dribbling aimlessly.

From the sound of it he will go help Jimmy B undress after the game.  If I heard about Mt Rushmore one more time.

I don't know, we are still young...there was improvement from last year it would have been interesting to what of this game about if we had Branch or Mo...Harrison can be frustrating but if Harrison leaves who are we going to replace him with? That would be another position we would have to fill and another major change to this team. We were all expecting to lose this game ad surprise we did! Lets lick our wounds and get ready for Louisville!

I am sick of Obekpa this year.  He is the worst offensive player I have ever seen and be should have had about 20 points on putbacks if he had 1/20th the desire or quickness of Sampson.  I dont want to hear about his blocked shots For the rest if the year because he would be riding the pine on any top team in the country.
