A loss tonight would be horrible for my mental health.
We all have to chase one rabbit. If we try to chase two rabbits we won't catch either of 'em.

Not to worry...
St. John’s took care of business last year and beat the Warriors for the first time since 1966. Time to start a new winning streak tonight.
An early Juan Anderson sighting
Not sure what to make of that.

Oh Davante...
Knocked a layup right outta Mayo’s hands.

Yikes.

Yelling "SHOOTER!"
isn’t really an effective method of guarding the shooter.

Yeesh.
Harrison pops the jersey after burying that deep (and probably ill advised) 3.
Remember that confidence I said we shouldn’t give them? Too late.

Jae and DJO with 2 fouls a piece
Mayo and Anderson subbing in for defense, on 3 straight trips. That’s nice, except when they have to stay in to play offense.

If I were Juan Anderson...
I’d be pissed about that last charge call.
Hell, who am I kidding, I’m pissed anyways.

Do we scout teams anymore?
Or did we decide that was too much work?

Apparently not
Harrison seems to have gotten a blank check from us. And we are lucky Gardner has been able to be effective tonight given Achiuwa’s production.
I haven't seen a single charge call on St John's
I guess that may be due to the fact that there hasn’t been any defenders in their way, but it irritates me anyway.

Those early fouls on our top scorers really effed up the rhythm of the game
We are lucky Davante has been beasting it up.
Goos thing Davante has wide shoulders
Cuz he had the whole damn team on his back in that half.

That’s gotta help the cause.

I am perfectly happy
To let them shoot all the jumpers they like. No more layups and dunks please.

Seriously
Who is this team and what happened to the guys that played the first half?
Not that I’m complaint, but the Jekyll and Hyde bit is fucking maddening.

They were on the bench, since DJO, Jae and Junior were playing.
:D
Restoring carousel. Come help.

And a nice ovation for the effort.
Way to work tonight son!

Who would have thought...
Jamie Dixon could start 0-5 in Big East play? Hopefully he does. Ring Out Ahoya!
Better, closer, warmer.
That’s it.
