If St John's had any idea how to rebound on the defensive end this game would be over.

They also appear to have given up on the idea of being somewhat intelligent on offense. The could have pulled off the upset if they continued running offense like they did earlier in the game.

One thing that is even more obvious now than it was before is that Posh is not an off the ball player. He and Curbelo should not be on the floor together that much. Posh is much better with the ball in his hands often.

Oof, Storr just got called for a foul on Hopkins on about as clean a block as you’ll see. Could be impactful in what is now a 6 point game with 5 minutes left

The “flail and fall” strategy paid off there

Fox showing that graphic of a bunch of BE teams tied with 3 losses then us with 6 losses hurts.

This was extremely evident before the season, too.

Neither of those players are good enough to have a style that dictates who they should be on the court with.

Posh Alexander is probably the worst point guard in the Big East but he is athletic so people think he is good.

Providence looks like it’s about to go down to Saint Johns. Minute and a half left. Johnny’s are up by eight.

If St. John’s wins, and our loss to them doesn’t look quite so bad

True, but think about what it does to our Providence loss.

peecee players are perpetually in shock whenever they are called for a foul on defense or don't gat a call on offense.

Lol, yeah, I did think about that, but I figure a loss to a ranked team probably isn’t so bad a thing. St. John’s los was just a head scratcher.

Yeah, people don't really get this.

If two teams are playing, and we've played both teams an equal number of times, it is a net neutral for the computer numbers whichever of them ends up winning.

our start time will still get over lapped need Providence to miss about 3-5 shots on their next possession.

Providence will get called for 25 fouls if they play like this in the Tournament. Big East refs let them get away with murder.

Edit: and now Providence starts playing cheap. Anderson should send a scrub on the court to get in Hopkins' face and see how Cooley like it.

If UConn wins today, they might be able to sneak into a top 4 seed in the BET.

It was entirely sarcasm on my part.

Eric Dixon and Caleb Daniels are going off against Seton Hall. Daniels has 11, Dixon has 13, Seton Hall has 14.
