Rowand44 Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 QUOTE (fathom @ Jan 3, 2010 -> 01:34 PM) Texas really struggled yesterday. Avery Bradley's been a bust so far this season, as Hamilton's probably their best freshman. I think Texas has amazing depth 1-10, but I'm not sure they have a scorer they can count on. Yes they did but it was one game and one they probably just didn't take very seriously. Bradley hasn't been great but I surely wouldn't call him a bust. And as for having a scorer they can count on, Damion James is definitely that guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going back to Cdale in a few days though for both home games this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo's Drinker Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 QUOTE (fathom @ Jan 3, 2010 -> 01:15 PM) So after watching way too much college basketball yesterday, Kansas is far and away the best team in the country. Their defense is outstanding, great depth, and Self has them playing great. It's ironic, as their two superstars haven't even improved this season (Aldrich and Collins). Henry is the 2nd best freshman in the country, and the Morris twins impress me. As long as they stay away from football players, this team should easily make the Final Four. the Morris twins improvement has been mind boggling. We also have just added Withey into the mix, nothing wrong with another 7 footer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florida is really struggling right now. NC State is probably a bottom 3 ACC team when its all said and done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Freeman was the biggest key for us, shutting down Osiris. We haven't played 2 halves once this year(not that we played that great either but still) so I expect no different here, I see Osiris going off in the 2nd and SIU losing by about 5 or so.

Brian Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Too many missed lay ups. I can think of 5 off the top of my head. I liked our game plan, just couldn't execute in a couple of stretches and our help defense is still lacking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Yeah Bocot tried to do too much on the break and it killed them. They kept ISU close but couldnt guard Phillips when it counted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowand44 Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 That's about what I expected. It hurts a lot but I can't say I'm pissed as it's not like we were outclassed or anything. And yes Brian, specifically the 2 easy ones that JB missed and the dunk by Teague, if we make those easy ones we're obviously in a much better situation. And not to mention that Kevin's head was in his ass tonight, don't know wtf he was doing out there but I don't expect he'll play that bad the rest of the season. Gotta shake this one off and serve home against UNI at home. If we can beat UNI we'll be in pretty good shape here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kjshoe04 Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 It was nice to see Phillips score without taking too many bad shots. Always feels good to beat the Salukis after that streak they had against us during the early 2000's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
