Syracuse Game Thread

[Porgyman]

Ok, this is really ugly. That Carter-Williams dunk over GG will be on Sportscenter tonight.

 Isn't this our home floor? Why does the garden play music to get the Cuse crown even more pumped. Ugghhh

 

[marco]

 now i got ya. it seems like the nets keep getting stuck today doesnt it?

 

[Della9250]

 Four of Cuse's bench players have outscored two of their starters.

 

[ManHATTEN1]

 If we could only get some stops we could make a little run.

 

[Della9250]

 77-53 Cuse. They are shooting 71 percent in the second half.

Yep I feel like we can't buy a stop. Cuse must have 50 pts in the paint!

 

[ManHATTEN1]

 Nice foul again Stith. Please take him out

 

[marco]

wow garrett actually finished a shot around the basket!

Boehim being kind to us They could have beat us by 50

 

[Porgyman]

They really need to praise Boeheim some more. They haven't done it enough on this telecast... :furious:
This lovefest is sickening.

FWIW Syracuse is probably the deepest team in the country. A BE POY candidate is their 6th man. I'm impressed. They seem to have it all. With no post players to speak of there's no way to beat them without an impossible shooting percentage from 3. Melo doesn't get suspended and they would still be undefeated.

 PS, Wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy better than Duke.

Garrett is def improving. He plays 100% effort just trying to draw a foul too much today. He does need to improve foul shooting though.

I still think they'll exit the tourney in the round of 16.

2nd round for Duke. Unless, they end up with a piss poor matchup (in Duke's favor, that is). Otherwise, I'm sticking to my 2nd round exit for them.

yup. duke is always so overrated. i cant beleive they were a 19 point fav over us and cuse was only a 12 pt fav.

 

[true 3 blue]

 Sigh.

Duke I see losing 2nd rd, max sweet 16. Cuse is def an elite eight 8 or fianl 4 team and def a national title contender. They have size, depth and can stroke it from 3. If they improve on rebounding like they did today, albeit against a smaller STJ team, look for them to make a deep run.
