I know few UNC fans here but when you can watch freshman Caleb Wilson..Human highlight reel. His dunks are powerful.. has 21 pts & 11 reb, 4 stl, 3 blks vs Navy w/ 8 min left.

Kentucky is playing without their starting PG. Also, they're playing without their center (they haven't had him all year) who can be a top 10 pick

Lowe could be out for the year and they don’t have a back up worth much. Same thing happened last year, where Oweh had to assume the position.

Forgive me if this was already mentioned, but its preposterous that we don't have our own MSG Court when they literally have a dedicated Court for this one-off Champions Classic event

Absolutely insane finish to the Arkansas-Winthrop game. Hogs hold on.

Am I crazy to think that was absurd they called a double tech? Knucklehead on Arkansas should have been ejected for almost ending the other kid’s life!

We do.
Michigan game was not a home game
Alabama (as mentioned) had a Rangers game that night but we had SJ logo at center court and baselines were us as well.

It still had the Knicks blue and orange in the paint, but I'll agree the Bama court was miles better than years past. Primarily because there was no NBA line. And the organ was a great addition as well.

We had the old school Red Storm logo whenever we wore throwbacks and we had the paint also. But for our regular games I only recall halfcourt nothing in the paint.

I actually think the refs got it right. Maybe I’m in the minority. Winthrop big kind of had the Arkansas player in a headlock after grabbing the rebound.

Monmouth fighting to the bitter end against the Cuse. Go Hawks!

Is it a dedicated court or just different decals you can place around the court?

Is it the same court that just gets relocated year to year to the different sites the where the game will be held.

The court at MSG is laid down in pieces and it is possible they have generic pieces without the Knick brand on it that they use for their non-St. John’s games and they place removable stickers for the event in strategic locations like they do at center court during some of our home games.

If we have a game there the same day that the Knicks or Rangers do, they are going to leave out the Knick layout to save on expense and time.

I agree we should have our own dedicated court at MSG but with the lack of games we have played there over the recent past, the expense wasn’t justifiable plus we were game by game renters. With most of our games being played there going forward, that narrative changes and I understand in the ongoing talks with MSG on a partnership deal, our having our own court is part of the discussion.
