Nino throws it down all over his haterz faces What a game! Putback machine. Stan described it as “Globetrotter-esque.” That makes no sense, but it speaks to a kind of “anything goes” praise that I would like to co-sign. He saved us multiple times on fast breaks when we were unable to finish. He boarded reasonably well. And that exclamation point? Fantastic.
2, 26 Wow. Rodney was stifled in the first. oSu’s 2-3 collapsed and bumped him and even the stints of man-to-man brought a lot of bumps and help off screens. Rod could not get to his spots, forced things and missed some putbacks and leaners. In the second, he left the lane and started cutting harder, flashing off screens better and floating open on the perimeter....It did not hurt that he was on fire. Rod the Reptile. So cold blooded.
Be AggressiveBeBe Aggressive! Too AggressiveTooToo Aggressive! Angel was a pitbull. He willed us through that first half and helped rack up the fouls on oSu’s bigs. But he took himself out of the game in crunch time because he did not understand the situation. He often gets caught with his hand in the cookie jar as the refs are trying to take the reins back, or evening up a call. There was a lot of complaining about the refs, and Oglesby called a bad game, but Angel needs to keep himself on the court. There is no excuse for him fouling out of this one. As has been mentioned, Tay and Angel showed back up right on time.
Tay good job Tay. You did exactly what was asked of you. Very tough D. Perhaps should’ve played more of Will’s minutes.
“It is better to be feared than loved if you cannot be both” Gip is both feared and loved. FTB. Love the sweat.
Shane’s sideline act is a delight. Holding back teammates. His handshakes, his smile. He is the straw that stirs the bench. In game. Shane did Shane things. Very solid contributor.
fOOD check in not there yet, but several very legit loud moments. Sandstorm moment (although a full student section was sorely missed once the music started). I definitely felt the anger flow toward the refs (and not our own team) for the first time all year. I told Markel Brown “U mad”, which was fun.
12 wins? 13? WHO’S TO SAY!
73 points? 73 points!
FRISBEE DOG HALFTIME SHOW!

Stop the ball the first thing you must do, is stop the ball. Our guards rely heavily on JO’s help. The difference was obvious when there was a dunk contest/layup drill combo until JO got in. He did not have his best game, but he is always a game changer on D.
DJamer’s new look. That isn't a do, its a don't. Good grief. That was awful. French braided pigtails? What the hell.
Stripes BOOOOOO! Call it both ways guys!
