[Jack Williams]

Zuby with an encore of his buzzer beater push shot!

 

[paultzman]

Great things happen, going through KR every possession

 

[espken]

SJU 25-21 0:11
Defense frantic

 

[Mean Gene]

Mean Gene ok?

Not really but at least we’re ahead now. These first half droughts are agonizing.

 

[Silly Donovan]

As poor as the Johnnie’s have played and with Zuby hobbling, to be up at the half is a testament to the defense.

 

[Jack Williams]

Could be wrong but I think we pull away big time in the second half

 

[ptc666]

put that half in the books and then burn that book

 

[Mean Gene]

These guys are going after Smith!! He’s been hit like 6 times already and was knocked down 3 times.

 

[stjohnnie75]

Good close to the half 7-0 run

 

[paultzman]

Prior to last two games, we have been much better in second half, expecting that, Smith especially

 

[backrim]

Played horrible, still up. Time for another 2nd runaway.

 

[SJU2000alum15]

Amazing as ugly as our offense was we are leading 25-21 cause our defense is just that damn good.

 

[mjmaherjr]

We have them right where we want them. 2nd half beat down on its way

 

[paultzman]

Pitino is so clear, refreshing in those in game, half time sound bites.

 

[espken]

SJU 25-21 Halftime
Kadary keeping us afloat.

 

[dk423]

Has to be crushing for opponents to have us in a scoring drought and they can’t extend the lead. We’ve been able to survive against these mediocre-to-bad teams, but the test will be after this

 

[paultzman]

Could be wrong but I think we pull away big time in the second half

Will

 

[SJU2000alum15]

It is also obvious they are targeting Smith which is such BS every screen they are going after his shoulder.

 

[mattc]

Final result will not be in doubt. They are clearly trying to reinjure Deivon. Beat the crap out of them.

 

[espken]

Our defense is our staple, if we ever hit our shots, lookout.
