he has to get into the second round first.

Yeah, but things shift quickly. A lot more eyeballs this month, and he's actually been relatively consistent from three.

BE POY--
Drum roll...........
3-way Tie
RJ
KR
Zubby

This is a very deep nba draft I love RJ but he won’t be a first rounder this year, plus I want him back next year lol!

Remember Donte DiVincenzo. Big dance performance can change things a lot regarding draft position.

 

[gman]

I could only watch the last 1:38 or regulation and OT. Wow what a roller coaster. This team has a legit final four chance. There is no die in them.

 

[tnice]

Was with Tierney at the bar in Long Beach today, what a GAME

 

[dk423]

Kam Jones is a consensus late first round pick. I am not sure how that can be the case while RJ is consensus not drafted.

Trust me, I am someone who's been saying for 3+ months that he'll return and he won't get drafted. But he's shooting 37% from three since February in nine games. If he keeps that up and leads us in the tournament...

 

[Demo]

Sim was huge today. 41 minutes, 13 pts, 3ast, 2reb and a key block getting back on defense after he missed a crucial 3. For some reason his mistakes are more magnified here. He is a work in progress and has proven important to this 27 win team. He could have easily forced a tough shot on that last play, but calmly dished to Zuby for the game winner.
Kudos Sim.

Has to learn how to protect the ball better

 

[espken]

Lefty, Vince and Prey all gave us solid minutes off the bench. Everyone but Ayo chipped in today. A real team victory.

Ayo made Pitino put Scott in the game sooner than later. Total team effort

Has to learn how to protect the ball better

Of course he does. Still doesn’t take away the impact he had on the game.

 

[dk423]

I'll also say this. Vince had completely serviceable minutes and stepped up when Prey lost focus in the second half. He was a +4, which met the eye test. Good for him!

was surprised to see Swain of X, as a second rounder!

 

[CBA69]

Dave has excellent lateral movement and one year of eligibility left

Dave was so excited that even his dog was cheering. Great, great win for the Johnnies!

 

[firestorm]

Incredible. We had a really good chance to win all 31 games. I am not sure that ever happened before.

Very good point. We're a couple of officials' calls and a couple of buckets from undefeated. Pretty incredible.

Check out the lower right corner

 

[Delaware]

Okay we won so not a whine. I want to ask the refs here. Look, the kid might have been hurt, I get that, but you can just fall to the ground on defense anytime you want and the game is stopped? How can that be true?

Since the play settled down and we were not forcing the play, the referees can stop play for a perceived injury. Nothing you can do about it. Just unfortunate.

 

[Delaware]

Great job by the bench today. Outscored M by 18 to 4!!

Thanks, as I remember it that was not the case when I played - but that was also back before they cut the bottoms out of the peach basket.
