Watched the game on Fox and prior to the game one announcer said St. John's would loose while another said we would win. When asked why I was very disturbed by his response which was unfortunately very accurate.
He said because St. John's looses to teams they should beat and beats teams they shouldn't.
I thought back to year one when we lost to Fordham and St. Bonaventure amongst others and then went on to beat top 20 teams. Unfortunately there is too much truth in what the announcer said which makes it very hard on the fans.
I for one would consistently like to beat inferior teams.
Today was a very nice win. Kudos to all especially Sir Dom who is finally being properly used.
North, Dom has not been used any differently then he has before. The difference is he is making plays now. He hits his free throws but when he has the same shot that is not a free throw struggles from middle of the floor. To me he is MVP of season, if only he had a consistent jumper he may be best pro on the team.
Dom is absolutely being used differently then in the past. He used to hang on the perimeter, now he works the baseline and the elbows. But it is not only that he is being used better, he is playing his ass off and its great to watch.
