What an absolute scud by Strus.

I like him as a player, but yikes!

DePaul is having a tough time closing out wins against their better opponents. When the individuals on their team know the little things they need to do at the end of the games to win or tie, that team is going to be much more difficult to beat.

For example , last night Strus had plenty of time and room to set up  his shot with a pump fake and get square to the basket for a much cleaner look than what he took.  I am sure when they  all get together and look at the tape he will see that. Hard to know that in the moment unless you have been there a few times.  Compare how that play went to the last minute shot Seton Hall made against St. Johns. The Seton Hall big man had less time than Strus did and yet he had the patience and vision to kick it out to an open player for a clean shot versus forcing his own shot.  Seton Hall has won some close games so they have that experience.

It also may be that Strus just is not a clutch player.
I seem to recall another game where he bricked a (wide open, btw) three to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

You are correct, I think that was at the end of the miked up game between DePaul and Providence, where he put up another brick to soon into the shot clock . Maybe they need to be running the plays for Cain.

I was actually referring to the MU-DePaul game in the BET last year.

But that brings up an interesting point about last night. After Cain had his airball and the Nova fans didn't let up on him about it, he pretty much disappeared. Didn't even want to hold the ball, much less shoot it.

Looking ahead to this weekend because I'm bored, we have:

Creighton @ Butler
SJU @ Georgetown
Villanova @ Providence
Xavier @ Marquette
Seton Hall @ DePaul

Huge games all around with the league projected as tight as it is. PC loses and they'll be 0-2 at home. Ditto for Butler. MU got one of their top 3 toughest games out of the way and now has one of their top 4-5 easiest. Have to win that one. SHU has a chance to go 3-0 with 2 road wins albeit against 2 bottom half teams. By the end of the weekend we could have 0 undefeated teams or up to 4. Really an interesting weekend.

I don't know what to make of Butler or Providence at this point. Creighton beats Butler and they have 2 solid road wins to start league play.

As a Marquette fan, who are you cheering for and why?

Mikey Dixon transferring from St John's. He transferred in a year ago, sat out a season, and played all of 14 games before transferring again.

Definitely want to see Creighton,Seton Hall and SJU log road victories. At this point, Creighton looks like they have a better chance of being a tourney team than Butler. Seton Hall needs to keep building its resume and NET ranking which works to everyone's benefit.  Also want the Johnnies to keep building that NET ranking. I am neutral on Villanova Providence. Would be good for Villanova to get a road win, but on the other hand I don't want to see Providence get in too deep a hole.

Yikes, that's a significant blow. They already play a 7 man rotation so losing anyone is significant. I guess with Keita coming back from injury they are still at 7

I do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.

Butler wins 84-69. Lavall tore his pants lol. Got a fashion tip from Cooley. Kamar Baldwin 28  points. 7 assists and 4 boards. When he plays well so go the Bulldogs.

So true. He is over 100 ORtg in all their wins and under 100 ORtg in all their losses.

Ponds will be the player of the year, there is no doubt in my mind.  Playing in the big apple helps.  That steal in OT was something to behold.

SJU be GU was a good game. Johnnnies looked good and for real. GU didn’t look like team that was projected to finish toward the bottom of the B-East.

GU matches up pretty well with SJU. They have no bodies to throw at Govan.
