What does Shaka do vs SJU?

[nyg]

Win against SJU and one game in BET. Probably solid four seed, maybe three seed.

Lose against SJU and win one game in BET.  Probably a four seed?

Many scenarios, too much to list and you get the idea. Heck win the SJU game, win the BET and get a two seed.

So question.  With BET #1 seed covered, do you play the starters for minimum minutes, not worried about SJU outcome or keep the streak going.  BET is a major grind for the players.

Lol.

You okay like you have every other game this year. This isn't the NBA. You don't load manage.

Also, we're a 2 seed if we win 2 more games this season. Book it.

[tower912]

Play to win.    Play for the seed.   No finish line. 

[WhiteTrash]

Win one more game and they stay locked in the 3 seed. 3 more wins and 2 seed is possible depending on others.

[real chili 83]

We should try to score more points than them.

Is this a serious topic?

Huh?

Win against SJU and next thursday(probably SJU again) and we are a 3 seed lock.

[mugrad_89]

Next game is Thursday - plenty of time to rest after getting another W.

should mention "trap" game and this post would make a lot more sense....

All data points to this being completely false except the fact that human being are on the committee and will feel compelled to give a 17-3 conf champ who is top 5 in the polls and made the conf tourney semis a 2 seed.  The NET says no but maybe the NET's creators say yes.

Exactly! St John's is an obvious trap game, while we look ahead to playing......St. John's.

Cliche alert!   


Can you beat a team 3 times in the same season?

Yes, that's what I say. Closing in on 2 seed.

NET said Saint Mary's was a 2 seed.

[1SE]

What does Shaka do? Win.

[DoctorV]

Win in Saturday and Marquette is locked into a 3 seed IMO.

Any bad loss in NYC wouldn't affect it. Two losses B2b might make Marquette a 4, but even that's not a sure thing. That's also unfathomable.

Win thru to the final on Saturday at the Garden and cut down the nets there and I would be VERY surprised to not see Marquette on the 2 line.
I'd actually consider that a travesty by the committee

[BLWarrior91]

DoctorV

Well stated.  A two seed should be a sure thing if we win the BET. 

[mugrad_89]

One thing I'd like Saturday is to see Chase get extended minutes to help him get his confidence back.

[BLWarrior91]

Play to win.  That's the only way.  Great tune up for next week in NYC.

[ATWizJr]

Is this a serious topic?

. Can't be.

[Mu8891]

Ummm ...
Shaka does not " change " anything

They will beat SJU on Saturday.  That pretty much locks in a 3 seed.

Regardless of the NET, if they win 2 more ... they are 50/50 for a 2 seed

Dodd's says it very hard, especially if one night is a senior night and/or have tired legs.

[GB Warrior]

I for one think we should have a senior night celebration for Joey, represented by empty chair Clint Eastwood style

[ZiggysFryBoy]

He plays the seniors on the JV team.
