Week of 2/5 Other Games

[superjohn]

These lob plays by Sheppard are ridiculously stupid

 

[runner11]

lol! Two pretty low basketball IQ plays for Sheppard, bailed out on the first.

A rare bad decision from Sheppard

Sheppard has to be able to read the game and know that he is going to get the call if he does anything going to the basket. Instead he throws the ball right to Gonzaga's defender.

Those seem to be set plays from Calipari. Why is he running that at the end of the game?

 

[nelsonmuntz]

I would shoot the miss off one side of the rim rather than try to bounce it back. It is an easier deliberate miss to execute and an easier rebound for the offense if they know where the miss is going.

100% set plays but you can not make the pass. Not to be a hater, kid was incredible up til those possessions.

 

[UConnSwag11]

Great win for Gonzaga in terms of metrics

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Kentucky lost a game to one of the worst Gonzaga team in years playing 8 on 5. They kind of suck.

 

[REB1094]

St Johns up 9 at Marquette. Lotttt of layups for the Johhnies

 

[gsmooth]

East Catholic’s Matt Knowling with the game-winning shot. The tall dude in blue clapping is Danny Wolf’s brother.



Yale now stands alone as the only unbeaten team in the Ivy.

What a game!

I was watching that simultaneously with Butler -Providence game. Did you have fun at that game?

 

[Hans Sprungfeld]

Illinois, Wisconsin, and Auburn lose on the road.

Kentucky, Cincinnati, and Syracuse lose at home.

Cooley loses big, Floyd comes up short, and the day continues.

I like starting the day with a win.

 

[Letsgohuskies11]

St Johns up 12 on Marquette right now

 

[Letsgohuskies11]

Andre Jackson is at the Marquette St John's game lol

 

[Marat]

St Johns up 12 on Marquette right now

Do we want Samson Johnson or Marquette to win ?

St Johns. Would give us more cushion to win the BE, St Johns boosts their chances to get into tournament.

 

[ScottCT]

Do we want Samson Johnson or Marquette to win ?

A Marquette loss tonight would basically give us the Big East title so I'm rooting for Samson Johnson.

Those seem to be set plays from Calipari. Why is he running that at the end of the game?

I’m not in the camp that calipari has always been a horrible coach but he’s been making some brutal coaching moves the last few years. That play call was almost like he was trolling Kentucky fans. I hope he called the play “buyout” and called it by yelling it at the top of his lungs in Rupp.

 

[Connhomer99]

A true student of the game my man Andre!!! Will never forget his dribbling at the beginning of the ncaa tournament showing UConn had the most creative player in the tournament and they were gonna be the team to beat. So cool he goes to games like this. Random big east games well I guess he’s pretty close to Marquette lol. Go Johnnie’s?

 

[Hey Adrien!]

I was watching that simultaneously with Butler -Providence game. Did you have fun at that game?

Honestly, it was the most fun I've had at a game since the Creighton game last season. Payne Gymnasium gets LOUD and both teams were battling hard as they were both undefeated in conference play entering the season. A particularly fun moment was after Cornell's star guard Chris Manon dunked it in the second half, he was talking junk to members of the Yale football team under the basket...not really a crew I'd mess with. After the game, James Jones jumping into the student section.

Just a beautiful day in New Haven.

 

[superjohn]

Juwan Howard may be the worst coach in sports.

Do we want Samson Johnson or Marquette to win ?

We don’t need any help to win the Big East. I would rather see a top 5 matchup next Saturday. Go Marquette

 

[aceboon]

That 3 to end the half for Kolek to cut it from 12-9 was big, feels like Marq flipped the momentum with that shot

 

[Rico444]

Kolek taking over. St. John's gonna have to figure out how to keep him in front of them.

 

[uchusky32]

Can’t miss 2 bunnies late and expect to win.
