Neiman Marcus. I think it's some kind of shopping reference.

Reibe continues to impress. He had the great sequence with the dunk and then the absolute Clingan-esque denial on the other end.

Really dominated on the glass tonight as well. He’s come a long way from day 1 on that front.

Hurley post game interview is hilarious!

"Then Demary picked up his third foul. We told him not to but he did anyway."

Did the four players ahead of Alex on the 3s list play all four years?

Rashad, Bazz, Vital and Smitty played all 4, Ben did not.

Probably the most complete game I’ve seen from Solo. That block into an and-1 was special. He was driving, attacking, dishing, defending and shooting all in one game. He unlocks this team.

To me it looks like there is great team chemistry top to bottom and we have a group of Hungry Huskies. Get to any game you can.

Under appreciated Hurley quality is his sense of humor. He always gives a quality one liner postgame, the Demary bit was hilarious.

Seconding the post game show compliments, easily the best part of playing on Peacock.

The first 8 minutes were everything we could have hoped for. To quote RutgersAl, "simply awesome." We were shot out of a cannon. At the 12.08 mark of the first half we hit 98% chance to win and it never dipped.

Yep, there is still stuff to clean up. Like the spot on the floor that is Xavier. Happy New Year.

Glad to see you got that pencil sharpened!

Then Demary picked up his third foul. We told him not to but he did anyway.

Demary had a real nice game but oh when he does that it just frustrates me. He’s got quick hands and that strip move works pretty often but know your spots. We’ve had too many games where he sits with foul trouble after that exact foul.

karaban nailed it....that last 8 mintues we gave up 20 points once we went to malachi and reibe. I think we can stem that a little better if we can bring in ross off the bench, but can't be giving up runs like that.

Despite that, our defense still rose to #2 in the country.

We’re very good. Not a good day for the Solo Ball haters. He was excellent today!

There are Solo haters? Ugh.

As was said already "No message" - just normally means all info is in the subject line and there is no more text. In this case temery was only opening the post game thread with a blank post.

Hurley post game interview is hilarious!

I loved the one with AK where he was asked what he was doing later tonight.

He said FaceTime him mom, girlfriend and then watch Stranger Things finale.

Got to give it up to interviewer who did not miss a beat and said “yeah I’m watching 11 Vs Vectna too.”

 

[Sibeerian]

No message

OK but what does IDK mean? I keep asking but people say they don't know.

I didn’t know there were any

I don't know either!

 

[Palatine]

Solo has been good all season. He has been great quite often. His three was a little off early but he maintained his production and has added a lot to his game.

 

[Scottobot]

I do like the post show peacock does after the games

The picture quality is far superior too

I wondered too but guess its no message ??

 

[Gurleyman]

Braylon is 0-for-3 on behind-the-back dribbles.

Well let's be fair and make it 1-for-4 - he did have a pretty brilliant one against Butler when he got out of traffic after pulling down a rebound, and hit it ahead to Demary, who threw an alley-oop to Ross.

 

[thekollieman]

This roster is an absolute arsenal. Just a question for anyone else who was confused by what seemed to be a no reason whistle: see attached play-by-play screen shot. What the heck happened at 11:41? The play was live (UConn ball), the refs blew the whistle, no call was described, under 12 TV timeout occurred, game resumed with Xavier in possession. No turnover recorded in the play-by-play. What was that??

 

[Lafayette]

The word “hater” gets thrown around entirely too much on this board.

dontcha hate that?

 

[dennismenace]

Watching Mullins in the open court is really exciting where he can create as well as shoot. Ice in the veins. Great future ahead for this kid.
Our staff knows how to pick the kids who fit in. Also feel better about the depth on the bench this year.
