2nd DePaul Game

JDR will have to shake off the rust the next 2 games. I don't see how we can go small against Stainbrook and Smith
 
The good; DLO is back. The bad: CO is injured. We need CO back because Felix does not warrant big minutes and Amar also can't be counted on for long stretches. We have to play smarter and minimize the technical fouls, it can cost us games,which we can not afford to loose. Greene and Dom also had great games. Onto the next game.
 
It's nice to read the board after the game and the biggest complaint is the announcers :)

Lol. True.

I propose we get Gottlieb to do every SJU game for the rest of the year. DLo is averaging 32PPG when Doug is on the game lol

Gottlieb was fine, hopefully other guy goes back to driving a cab.
If you are calling a game you should at least know one of the top 5 guys in a schools history. Would be like saying I wouldn't have thought Mark Aguirre or Terry Cummings scored that many points for DePaul.
Btw I think both those guys were on same team. Ray Meyer sucked
 
Good win for the Johnnies tonight. DePaul is a tough matchup for them, especially with Obekpa being out.

Big game this weekend against Xavier. I've watched them a few times this year and they are a well coached team (similar to Butler in a way). St. John's needs to be crisp otherwise they'll fall behind early.

The curse of Carnessecca continued for rysheed, although he wasn't that bad tonight.

Great win with no obekpa.

On to the X

Yes he was. Greene is the unsung hero tonight
 
Goes without saying that we need obekpa back for Xavier or they will slaughter us inside.


No doubt about it. Once Stanbrook gets the ball in low it's a layup. And Reynolds will have a ball. Should Obekpa miss Saturday's game then Amar has to guard Stanbrook and Sir Dom on Reynolds. If Chris returns then he can't allow Stanbrook to position in low, especially on his left. I have to figure Lavin wanted an extra few days before bringing Obekpa back. He knows he needs Chris against Xavier.
 
Thank God the Xavier game is in the afternoon otherwise Valentines dinner would have ended up being in a restaurant with a lot of tv's

He had a stretch where he attacked the rim and got some big offensive rebounds when DePaul cut it to 2 or tied it. Indeed, he was huge tonight. Nice shot Phillip! :)

Stainbrook is also a great passer. You double him and he'll find the open 3 pt shooter

Yeah, Sheed only had 15 pts, 7 rbds, 4 asst, 3 stls, 1 blk...he was terrible. Not his best game, but c'mon. He was an important part of this win. The team played well, and if not for the phantom technical in the 2nd half (I can't comment in the first one, since CBS couldn't figure out how to show it to us), this one would have been over much earlier.
 
Balamou hung in there well enough on defense, not sure what you expect. Multiple posters killed him for shooting 2/10 last game, so now he doesn't shoot much and he's being called useless. Lay off please, he was fine
 
Balamou is worthless on the offensive end.

He is 6-3 and helped out down low and doesn't let bigger guys push him around. Eventually Obekpa has to start again but he has not hurt us.

Could be our leading returning scorer next year.

He shot 2-9 and made a couple of awful decisions down the stretch. Sorry I think he stunk tonight. Now the Creighton game he was tremendous. That's the Jordan I want to see not the Mr Hyde we got tonight

not as good as the creighton game but that steal he got on the inbounds pass at the end and then got fouled was huge for us.
