Way different frame, but you trap this guy, he can identify the right time to shrink and break through the double. He's good at dribbling backwards to reset while still keeping his eyes up, scanning the court. Dude is so savvy but Pip is also a very tenured player and does have that height advantage. Not a 1 to 1 comparison ofc He's very patient. That's the biggest difference between the two besides the height, of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be hard for our coaches to preach that to the guys when getting up and going is such an important facet in how Pearl's ran things here. But I also think selective speed is something that comes to guards in time, only the special ones have it from day one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennypowers 1,431 Posted February 24, 2022 Author Share Posted February 24, 2022 DID YOU SEE THAT XAVIER v PROVIDENCE GAME LAST NIGHT!!!!! Creighton took a huge blow.

Indiana hosting Maryland at 6 pm on FS1. Two 15-9 teams - Temple at Memphis at 6 pm on ESPN2 MTSU at 20-7 hosting Marshall at 6 pm. North Texas is strong. They protect the ball and shoot the 3 well. Hosting Sothern Miss at 7 pm. South Dakota State another strong team. Best 3pt shooting team in NCAA, and they protect and share well. Sweet 16 capabale...with the right matchup maybe Elite 8 Cinderella. On the road at Oral Roberts at 7 pm. UAB on the road at UTSA at 7 pm. Seattle at Utah Valley (17-9) at 7 pm.

kennypowers 1,431 Posted February 24, 2022 Author Share Posted February 24, 2022 If you want to go to the UCLA v Oregon game, you can get tickets for 5 freaking dollars. $5.00 That's crazy ... a blue blood vs a bubble team who can and may beat them...and you can get in for couch change.

81spacetiger 157 Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Baylor at Texas tonight ay 9pm EST will be a BIG game. It is a home game for Texas; if they win, we might be able to slide back in to a #1 seed. We, of course, need to win out and go very deep in the conference championship run to hold on to it.

AUBwins 10,064 Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 6 Kansas, 8 Purdue, and 9 Providence lost tonight. Although Purdue and Providence lost to Top 12 teams on the road. Kentucky and Tennessee had to fight for their wins, Kentucky was at home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennypowers 1,431 Posted March 2, 2022 Author Share Posted March 2, 2022 Wednesday 3-2-22 Xavier has been on and off the bubble all year. Traveling to a tough St. John's. Could be the end for Xavier's hopes at 5:30 pm on FS1 Davidson hosting George Mason at 6 pm. Notre Dame looking to enhance their resume at FSU at 6 pm on ESPN2 Rutgers at Indiana at 6 pm on BTN should be a great game. OKST at Iowa St at 6 pm. Meh interest, but OKST could upset. La Tech hosting ODU at 6 pm MTSU (doesn't get a lot of love) at 22-7 visiting Charlotte at 6 pm. UConn at Creighton at 7:30 pm on FS1 LSU (playing better) going to Arkansas at 8 pm on ESPN2 SF Austin (20-8) at New Mexico State (23-5) at 8 pm. Wyoming coming off a disappointing loss is visiting UNLV at 9:30 pm on FS1. And of course, Auburn with a chance to clinch a portion of the SEC crown.

kennypowers 1,431 Posted March 4, 2022 Author Share Posted March 4, 2022 (edited) Not a huge game, but #1 Seed Longwood is on the ropes against NC A&T in the Quarter Finals. Longwood...would suck to go 23-6, 15-1 and miss the tournament. Currently on ESPN+ Edited March 4, 2022 by kennypowers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
81spacetiger 157 Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 (edited) Wow, more madness today: Neb beats #10 Wisc: 74-73 Memphis takes out #14 Houston: 75-61 Mich beats #23 OSU: 75-69 #24 Iowa plays #20 Ill later tonight So 4 AP ranked teams lost/or will lose today. This combined with other ranked team losses since the last poll means there will be another shake up in the AP poll tomorrow. I'm sure there will be other teams upset during conference championship week prior to setting the field of 64. That is sure to make for lots of tournament busters in this years big dance.

slyinsocal 831 Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 Las Vegas has become a mecca for conference tournament junkies that few people truly grasp. If it weren't for work, I'd attend a few games. Six conferences, men and women. Conference tournaments’ arrival in Las Vegas 1994: Big West men and women at Thomas & Mack Center 1998: WAC men and women at Thomas & Mack Center 2000: Mountain West men and women at Thomas & Mack Center 2009: WCC men and women at Orleans Arena; 2013: Pac-12 men at MGM Grand Garden 2019: Pac-12 women at MGM Grand Garden 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennypowers 1,431 Posted March 8, 2022 Author Share Posted March 8, 2022 (edited) South Dakota State could make the elite 8 Chattanooga will upset at least one team. Furman though...playing like they want it Zags playing the Dons here shortly. Santa Cruz playing St Mary's. Good start to the week. Congrats to all the teams that have clinched spot even though they will never read this 🤔 Edited March 8, 2022 by kennypowers 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kennypowers 1,431 Posted March 9, 2022 Author Share Posted March 9, 2022 Buddy Boheim just got away with a super dirty intentional punch to the solar-plexes of one of the FSU guys. Kid should be kicked out and suspended the rest of the year, but no review...no call. I hope an FSU player knocks his lights out to be honest.

tgrogan21 6,198 Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Hypocrisy at it's finest, people. Dropping an F-bomb means Jabari is classless and should be yanked off the court but throwing a punch is okay. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUBwins 10,064 Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Very big upset yesterday with 1 seed Iona losing to 9 seed Rider. That's huge because Pitino had a team that could push Elite 8 territory with the right matchups. Now they head to NIT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUBwins 10,064 Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Also Jax St is in the dance for winning regular season title in ASun. The tourney winner is Bellarmine, who is still in their provisional years of moving to D1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgrogan21 6,198 Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 This is why teams that have a Tourney bid locked up should not give a crap about a conference tourney win. I'd much rather get to the first round without any injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
