Yes. That's why I provided the link to their schedule. The Laval Rocket from Laval, Quebec and the Toronto Marlies.

Lots of new pieces that need time on the floor together. Plus we were down 2 players. I’m good

That's right! The opposing coach cameo appearances on screen looked like he slipped into a catatonic depression. Now he has something to have his players emulate.

He’s an underrated passer. As a Seattle guy, I’m especially rooting for him.

He’s a smooth player with a nice touch. My only concern with his game so far is lack of tenacity attacking the rim. I would like to see him finish and drive more aggressively as oppose to leaning back and fade aways, even though he can make those at a fairly high rate

Hang on. Just starting his Junior year. Two full years to go. Player development product of the best coaching staff in college bb bar none.

Watching St Johns and comparing them to UConn it is men vs boys at this point in time. St Johns is physical, big and strong as is Bama.
Yes, UConn romped and squashed their opponent but it wasn't Bama, yet it was fun to watch Bear be Bear.

Yes, UMass-Lowell isn't Alabama. Brilliant observation.

Such a strange take after 2nd game into the season, especially Johnnies lost.

Are gtcam and ZooCougar related?

@gtcam stealing this thread with astute non-alcohol fueled takes. It's refreshing

Hurley playing starters up 60 at 9 minute mark was a sin of pride.

I don’t think he cared what the scoreboard said. He wanted his team to play 40 minutes of quality basketball

Who is a boy in a starting lineup of Demary, Ball, Stewart, Karaban and Reed?

I’ve maybe disagreed with 99.5% of this poster’s takes. I can’t recall a single thing he’s said that I don’t totally disagree with.

We’ve got some goofy fans. I swear some of you seem to hate watch this stuff.

Based on my anecdotal experience, he just has no clue what he’s talking about.

After watching the game replay tonight - thank you @Storrs South - the biggest takeaway for me is that we have so many guys who seem comfortable creating for themselves. That was a big problem last year when the offense stagnated. I know, I know. America East opponent. Still, a very positive development.

The problem with these early season cupcake games. We are better than we were against New Haven and probably not as good as we looked tonight. We won't know anything until the BYU game. Need some game that are one possession games with 5 minutes left. Those are more exciting than these.

But we did beat an ACC and Big 10 team pretty handedly without our center. People forget. That MSU game did happen. It doesn’t count as far as stats, but I bet you the coaches and players know what’s up.
