IMHO, the only way to win on the road is to build up a significant lead and then keep it.  Keep your foot on the gas, peddle to the medal as they say.

Why would the home team want to send thousands of fans home feeling bad? 

On the other hand, as has been said, end game basketball is a different game.  The refs. don't want to be perceived as having an undue  influence on the outcome.  So they ignore fouls.  If the score is close the visiting team usually loses.  However, if the visiting team is dominating the game, they win.

Don't tell anybody, it's a big secret. 🤫

If any number crunches around here can demonstrate otherwise, I'm all ears.
 

I don't know what's more bizarre?  Watching this luge relay or the Svedka vodka dancing robots commercial that runs frequently during the Olympics.

My cousin lived in Morgantown while her husband pursued a doctorate as Gym Teacher (something like that) and Huggy was the coach.  The faculty loved him and apparently he always showed up for faculty meetings and other campus events that none of the other coaches showed up.

I'm going to watch that one--looks great from the trailer

He is already a star.  And will become a bigger one.  But you guys are wrong; he just turned 19 in January.  He was born in January 2007--I looked it up.

But not sure if the Players or Team are.

What?

Scoop is legendary for hot takes, even when things are going well.   Particularly the game chats.  The least surprising thing is that there would be exponentially more when things are not going as well.

Quote from: wadesworld on Today at 03:45:27 PMI mean by "out of necessity" because none of the juniors or seniors stepped into that role this year.

Royce should've been starting from day 1, but let's not pretend he was playing well early in the year.  Through the Wisconsin game he was averaging 7.3 points, 5.3 rebounds, 0.7 assist, 0.6 block, 0.6 steal, and 1.1 turnover per game in 21.2 minutes per game, shooting 40.5% from the field, 20.6% from 3, and 57.1% from the line.  His minutes would have been higher against Albany (18) if it wasn't a blowout, Little Rock (18) if it wasn't a blowout, had 4 fouls against Maryland but still played 25 minutes, and Valpo (18) if he didn't have 4 fouls.

I certainly remember a number of posters suggesting Royce be pushed out while he was struggling.

True ball knowers.
