We never knew about McNeal's record. Would have been nice to have it acknowledged, as otherwise, he had a terrible game. Good to know about our FG % and free throws - it seemed like we were missing everything, since Nova just could not miss!Maria Veehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10706769271649646864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10389503.post-34533583286769978992009-02-11T13:24:00.000-06:002009-02-11T13:24:00.000-06:00We actually shot well, but 'Nova was superhuman la...We actually shot well, but 'Nova was superhuman last night. The worst thing about this game was it being on national T.V. It always seems to me MU tanks when the spotlight is on them. For once I'd like a a-whooping of a team while we're on T.V. We have 4 more chances, lets make it happen. Also, I think we can maybe lose 1 more road game if we want to keep in consideration for a #2 seed in the NCAA's.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06198504207105168937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10389503.post-4641233125555321142009-02-11T12:06:00.000-06:002009-02-11T12:06:00.000-06:00Packer Pat - I do agree with you on clearing the b...Packer Pat - I do agree with you on clearing the bench. I did think Buzz was at least getting the guys at least a short breather during the game instead of having them play every second like at USF, and using his timeouts this time even though the adjustments didn't slow Nova, but at least the last two minutes I would have loved to see him stick Otule, Fulce, Hazel, Acker and Cube or somebody and just let them run for two minutes.JohnPudnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16378028251507577250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10389503.post-64776214970290034592009-02-11T11:03:00.000-06:002009-02-11T11:03:00.000-06:00Hey Richard.... what a shock you are negative when...Hey Richard.... what a shock you are negative when a guy breaks the all-time scoring record. Can any CSW's expert tell us why Buzz keeps all our starters in the game down 17 with under two minutes left. He's convinced us that he really cares and is looking out for them but with their aggressive style of play it wouldn't be crazy for one of them to get banged up anytime. He needed to clear the bench.Packer Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16866091231342601835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10389503.post-84325517783539150142009-02-11T09:07:00.000-06:002009-02-11T09:07:00.000-06:00Congratulations to Jerel for breaking this record,...Congratulations to Jerel for breaking this record, but he played a horrible game last night. Forced shots, poor decisions, etc. I agree with you that Lazar was our best player last night.

That still holds true. They need to remember who they are and use their true strengths.Oliverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01103691634133960271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10389503.post-24514390897182860342009-02-11T04:36:00.000-06:002009-02-11T04:36:00.000-06:00There is no better empirical measure of a team's m...There is no better empirical measure of a team's mind-set than how it plays defense. With that the barometer, I'd say our GEs are day-dreaming, if not fast asleep. One hundred and two points, c'mon! Is 'Nova playing "unconscious" because MU concedes the perimeter, and plays no ball denial? No,'Nova only took what MU openly gave, which was plenty.Smoovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07744636923102393157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10389503.post-42653200430862590502009-02-11T00:37:00.000-06:002009-02-11T00:37:00.000-06:00I'm a little tired of watching two Marquette playe...I'm a little tired of watching two Marquette players gain position to rebound, go up together, and then knock the ball into the hands of an opposing player.<BR/><BR/>I'm also tired of missed free throws.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10389503.post-61699675675505722312009-02-10T23:26:00.001-06:002009-02-10T23:26:00.001-06:00This comment has been removed by the author.HoopsMalonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00559587115861277905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10389503.post-18783827267071970982009-02-10T23:26:00.000-06:002009-02-10T23:26:00.000-06:00I like the positive attitude.
