Yep. The talent level on this team isn't as high as 2006 but the vibe and feel as a fan is similar.

Nothing gets me like Doris Burke's incessant "the dribble drive".

First half looked like more of the same, second half was our Nov/Dec team.

Sooooo we've decided to try out a February slump instead of a January one?

One of my good friends has a work colleague who has access to courtside seats through his job, anywhere from five rows back to sitting on the hardwood, first row. He told my buddy that his company has trouble giving away the weekday Gampel tickets (they also have tickets in Hartford) because...

Well, we won a game where Reed had 4 points and 1 rebound. Three rebounds in 40 minutes from our centers sure is something. Another uninspiring win. On to the next one.

He's averaging 5 & 2 this year. Not exactly a home run, but yes he's been better than Smith for sure. At least he can shoot it. That Illinois performance from Smith seems like a lifetime ago. Hurley basically has to tell him to stop pounding the rock and stop shooting inside the arc. Defend...

Same story with Pitt 20-25 years ago. They can enjoy Big East success and then flame out early in the tourney.

Hawkins is the only real disappointment for me. He just hasn't shot well as a pro. Far too early to tell on Liam.

St. John's played very well. Tough and aggressive and Zuby had a huge night. Sloppy turnovers and missed FT. Kinda impressive we lost a game while shooting 54% from the floor and 47% from deep. Silas was incredible for stretches and abysmal for others but I think he needed the experience of a...

A first half like tonight is why he's going in the lottery. 22 year old role playing big men are not going to get picked over him lol.

Veesaar over Mullins made me choke on my water.

If Sanogo can't stick in the league I don't see how Reed has a chance.

IIRC we were down 9 with under 3 min vs Duke when Rashad hit the corner three to start the comeback. At its largest, the deficit vs Albany was greater, but that game didn't even come down to the wire. We won by double digits. I don't know how many fans were really worried during that Albany...

2004 Duke has to be #1. At Pitt in '99 (the KEA table game).
