St. John's is definitely the team with the weirdest names.

We're nearly a month away from Sully giving Robinson the business..

Won't happen..But that may be the best big man battle we see all year..We may put Withey on Sully though to keep T-Rob out of foul trouble.

Yep, should be fun to watch. Sully vs Mbakwe and Ralph Sampson III should be good as well.

I'm not sure how anyone is gonna stop Sully this year. His jumper is actually really good and he's going to be facing up more this year. I was surprised last year when he never did it. Slimmed down, better conditioned. He's going to dominate everyone.

 

[The Young One]

I had heard he trimmed down. I'm really interested to see his face up jumper now.

People are sleeping on the Huskies, because Kemba left.

Jeremy Lamb has been a great 20+ppg scorer this preseason, and for the U-21 Olympics team during the summer as well
Andre Drummond is a freak of nature, dude's gonna be a beast
Oriakhi improved in his defense, and is still a great rebounder.
Roscoe is a streaky shooter, but as a #3-4 option, it shouldnt be too bad.
Bazz at the point. Should get tons of assists; averaged a double-double in the preseason.
And if Ryan Boatright can play this season (eligibility is questioned), damn, we are gonna be hard to beat

 

[elcheato]

Because Kentucky/UNC/OSU are better.

 

[The Young One]

Who's sleeping on Uconn...Everybody knows they're a top 5 team

 

[jonathanlambert33]

I really like UNC and OSU this year.

 

[The Young One]

UK has potential to be a special team imo. If Seth Curry plays well..Duke could be a sleeper final 4 team.

Totally agree with this. Duke seems really deep this year all around, three point shooters, rebounders, and defenders are all solid.

 

[Elite]

One thing Duke has going for them is that nobody has more Plumlees than they do!

How many do they have now, 8?

 

[Elite]

McConnel just broke that dude's ankles bad, lol damn

 

[The Young One]

Mcconnell just mixed Nick Johnson and hit the J..I see you

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Turner is having little to no impact on tonight's game. Johnson's statline isn't great, but I think he's been playing solid. Has definitely provided that team with some energy.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

The inability for coaches to draw up quick hitters, or for the players to execute the quick hitter is unbelievable to me.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

I'm looking forward to the UNC-MSU game on the Aircraft Carrier tomorrow.

 

[The Young One]

Duke/UNC/KU/Uconn are all playing today :datass:

 

[elcheato]

What about OSU <_<

 

[jonathanlambert33]

A ton of games on as well.

 

[The Young One]

KU looking real good. UNC's frontcourt looks soft
