My One Observation

[The Sultan]

Today is why you never, ever, ever tell a player they can't shoot in the flow of the offense.  You never know when they step up.

Agree completely. With the system they play, everyone has a green light or no one has a green light. Play defense and fire away on offense. That is my kind of basketball!!

I'd like to see them use head fakes and get some mid-range jumpers

Do you laugh to yourself when you know you it is a clever post? I have to think you might be chuckling when you hit send.

That said, I am not sure your family would understand the amusement you may have on your posts.

Agree...the shots we were missing in the first half were wide open....we just missed.... Shaka in his post game comments with Homer and Tony alluded to that.......in the second half, they fell......that is the sport

It helps playing at home when you're shooting that poorly. Do that on the road and a decent team stretches the lead and crowd energy sinks you.

Love this team and I love the energy the fans bring. Huge help today.

Love the 40 minute intensity on the defensive end today as well.

More of a sigh knowing how many scoopers think I'm correct

I have noticed in a couple games this year how the team gets fired up when Stevie hits a '3'. Gets everyone goin'.

I share that sigh.

[Daniel]

Really. This is all correct.  Who would have guessed that 5 three-pointers today would come from Stevie and Sean combined?  Uhhhhh!  Fantastic!

[Lennys Tap]

Rico

I share that sigh.

Goose

I sigh because this is just one of so many dead horses Rico beats on a regular basis. He can be funny, even insightful at times - but not nearly funny or insightful enough to repeat all of them over and over and over and over and over again.

Says, Lenny, again

His philosophy on humor is the same as MU's vision on the offensive end. Keep shooting and it's bound to hit at some point !

Rico is on Scoop's Mt. Rushmore.

Best part is who it irks.

A great day with the family and cocktails were enjoyed. Truth be told, we are still chalk talking  and enjoying a long postgame.

Those moments are special and something I love sharing with those close to me. Enjoy !

Good for you, Goose! Great to see MU hoops give us all reason to extend celebrations with family and friends!

[Goose]

Cheers!! Hopefully one of these days we can grab a cocktail and talk ball.

My point is that there are many in the game thread stating that Stevie and Sean simply should not be allowed to shoot the ball.  Today shows why that philosophy in general is a poor one.

Good thing Shaka has never told any player they can't shoot in the flow.

Right. But a number on this board thinks he should.
