[quote="SJU61982" post=301024]94% chance of victory, according to BPI Matchup Predictor.

That's a bit unusual, because it's slightly better odds then what they gave us on Tuesday. Maybe we impressed them enough.[/quote]

Still trying to get a handle on this new format but, we need to root for a 10+ point win right?

Basically, yes.

But, even if you don't get double digits, shoot for as much of a difference as possible. A 9-point win would still be worth more then a 2-point win. It's just that, once the margin hits double digits, there is no difference.
 
[quote="Paultzman" post=301005][quote="SJU1512" post=301002]Important to get this one with the type of ease we got Loyola.

Then a week to get ready not just for Rutgers but 3 games in 5 days with Cal and Temple/VCU. This is one of the critical pockets on the schedule that team may look back and regret if not handled well. 3-0 preferable, 2-1 almost required. 1 on the road and 2 in an NBA arena - not easy![/quote]
Anticipating a relatively easy win tonight, but with a week off I hope the team does not take Rutgers lightly. A road game at the RAC & a good coach in Steve P should have them focused. Yes, Rutgers will struggle in Big10 this year, but let’s not be their Super Bowl. A solid win there would help Johnnies gain confidence playing on the road, unlike last year.[/quote]

lol @ "but let’s not be their Super Bowl." People are thinking that we're far superior.
But why? Can someone tell me what exactly we have done? We never been a top25 team, never went to a ncaa game, nor a single NIT game under Mullin.
What are we basing this on? Hype? Hype doesn't mean jack S* to me.

What matters to me is getting on the floor and no matter how garbage a team is or how elite a team is, just go all out and play hard, never underestimate anyone, respect all opponents.
If you're so much better then an opponent, don't get bored, go all out and end it by halftime.

Buster Douglas KO'd Tyson, last year the first #1 (uva) team losers to a #16. Upsets happens.
Don't be a victim.
 
[quote="SJU61982" post=301016][quote="BrookJersey Redmen" post=301015]we got into the garden for .50 cents with the high school g.o. card. I liked Howard Komives game.[/quote]

Komives's claim to fame, as a Knick anyway, was that it was him who went to the Pistons, along with Walt Bellamy, in exchange for some guy named DeBusschere.

I think that trade worked out in the end.:)[/quote]

For the Knicks not for the Pistons!

I don't know about you guys, but I'd be A-OK with them registering for Redmen.com.:lol:
 
At the game. Keita starting instead of LJ. Everyone was warming up, so I'm guessing Mullin just wanted to match up with the big guy.

We will blow their doors off. Still not defending tight enough on all possessions. Can’t take threes with nobody under the basket. Need to pass once or twice and have at least a guy or two underneath. Other than that, bowling green hitting some nice shots, otherwise wouldn’t be close.
 
Heron is so good. He and Ponds have a good feel for each other. However, our defense is not great- way too many uncontested outside shots for BG. That will kill us against better competition.
 
Heron is not shy when it comes to shooting. The team needs to slow down and run the offense. On the other end, defensive pressure on the Bowling Green guards has been non existent.
 
[quote="Boo Harvey" post=301062]Keita injured?[/quote]

He was limping like he turned his ankle. Didn’t seem bad.

We are still not driving and just chucking. Perimeter D sucks. We should be hammering these guys. I love our depth and talent, but we need to commit.

You've got to be flipping kidding me.
 
We also need more offensive rebounding, although our defensive rebounding has been great today. Are we gonna defend though?

Wow. I’m usually mr. positive but we are giving up open shot after open shot. And...we are taking a lot of crap shots, always trying to make the flashy pass. Jeez.
