What Do You Expect Our Record To Be On January 27?

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

I have us losing no home games, and losing away to X, Nova, St. John's and DePaul.    There's always one WTF loss, even for a good team.

This year that's two WTF losses

[MU82]

I have us not losing again this season.

See y'all in Minny for the Final Four!

The first 15 minutes of the second half of Kansas.

Done ... so we can beat DePaul.

[Jay Bee]

Considering Theo attacks virtually every shot attempt, and absolutely impacts virtually every shot taken at the rim/in the lane - he takes himself out of defensive rebounding position as he goes to affect shot.

Can't get something for nothing. A ball-hawking, shot swatter, isn't going to have a great D rebounding rate.

Please stop lying. There are 26 guys (min 40% of team's minutes played) per barttorvik.com with a block rate over 11%. Theo's DR% is 4th worse. Lots of guys with 20%+ DR%'s. Theo's is under 15%. You are lying.

He has JB.  He gooone.

X or DePaul??

[WarriorFan]

X is good.. and dangerous at home.
DePaul is WTF.
Johnnies loss is a conflict of styles and skills.

Ask me tonight. If we win tonight I think we sweep the 4 games.

Lose tonight and 3-1 or 2-2

Lose tonight and 3-1 or 2-2

So 4-0, 3-1, or 2-2? Way to hedge your bets

If we lose the next three, I am gonna go with 1-3.

My official prediction is 3-1 

What I meant and failed to articulate is....

With a loss tonight I would be far from confident that we've figured out our road woes and the X game would worry me. I expect us to win the 2 home games regardless. If we win tonight I think 4-0, if we lose I wouldn't be surprised with 2-2. So I'm splitting the difference and going with 3-1.

So my official stance is 3-1. Subject to change. You're welcome.

Duly noted, and officially recorded with the Dept. of Scoop Prognostications That Mean Nothing -- one of our corporation's largest departments.

Hopefully we go 4-0 because you know we're gonna lose at Hinkle.

I'm usually a pretty positive fan but I have no confidence in getting a win at that house of horrors.

At some point we have to win one there. Everyone else in the league has won there since the reformation (even DePaul).

[MU82]

Bump.

I said 3-1, figuring we'd finally lose one we were "supposed" to win, but said I wouldn't have been surprised by 4-0 or 2-2. In other words, I really went out on a limb.

Congrats to all those who said we'd go 4-0. Not those who said we "should" go 4-0 -- and that if we didn't it would be another sign that Wojo was a failure (such as Ners, who IIRC was banned again after getting into it with wades and others in this thread) -- but those who confidently said something along the lines of: "4-0, baby! We got this!"

Well done.

I'm very impressed with this team's ability to win in a variety of ways and to overcome adversity. In the two road wins during this 4-game stretch, we made due without Markus and Morrow at GT and with Theo all but nullified by the refs at X. Won both games anyway thanks in part to nice contributions from the likes of Bailey, Heldt, Sacar and others -- and, of course, from our studs.

I had been a little concerned about Sam early on this season because he didn't quite seem all the way back from the hip injury. But during these 4 games, he looked fan-freakin-tastic.

Averaged 23.8 ppg on 53.4% shooting (including 50% from 3) and 7.5 rpg.

Big-time player steps up big-time.

Next!
