NCAA 2009-10 Hoops: Yo, mah Jordans, nigga

[derspiess]

WVU can't seem to pull ahead of Texas A&M.  Down 42-41 with ~15:00 left in the 2nd half.

[derspiess]

WVU pulled out a pretty decent win.  At least we have a good basketball coach.

Funny thing about Dickie V, if you go back and watch old games (like from around '91 or so), he is much more composed. Still tosses out stupid phrases, but is actually good at the color commentary.

Yes;  much like John Madden, he only got stupider.

[Berkut]

As awesome as the Pac-10 was this year in football, it is going to be that bad in hoops.

I think every team that finished in the top of the conference last year got worse instead of better.

The Pac-10 could see only three teams in the tournament this year. I haven't decided yet if that is good for Arizona (since everyone else sucks too, maybe we will do better than expected) or bad (a down year in a down conference means it is going to be ahrd to get the SoS needed to be considered as an at large bid).

Uh what?

This years Husky team is deeper than last and more athletic.

[Berkut]

Uh what?

This years Husky team is deeper than last and more athletic.

But not as talented, although in the rather weak Pac-10, they will do very well.

[katmai]

Oh I know they will do well since only other team that impresses me is Cal and they have been inconsistent.
Less talented, not so sure about that, they lost senior guard but replaced him with highly regarded frosh who backed out of Zona with Lute leaving and Pondexter is playing better than Jon Brockman did in his senior year.

[Berkut]

Gaddy isn't even going to start.

I will grant that if Gaddy in fact plays to his rather lofty hype, they may actually be as good as last year, but that is a lot to expect.

Overall, I do not think they are as good a team as last year. Losing Brockman and a senior point guard is not easy to replace.

[katmai]

Yeah he had his first start last night because of tardyness of another player.
Didn't do much with chance. But look forward to seeing him, Thomas and the apparent stud from turkey they recruited for next year.

[Valmy]

I am calling out YOU PAC-10!  Prepare to be put in your place by the Basketball Juggernaut that is the Big 12!

[katmai]

Eh just got home and see the huskies lost to tech ah well.

[Valmy]

Eh just got home and see the huskies lost to tech ah well.

Ah the bitter rage of defeat.

[katmai]

Eh just got home and see the huskies lost to tech ah well.

Ah the bitter rage of defeat.

You don't want to see me angry, you wouldn't like me angry.

[CountDeMoney]

Eh just got home and see the huskies lost to tech ah well.

Ah the bitter rage of defeat.

You don't want to see me angry, you wouldn't like me angry.

Because when Katmai gets angry...donuts die!

[katmai]

You don't want to see me angry, you wouldn't like me angry.

Because when Katmai gets angry...donuts die!

I'm not the former po-po here.
