You're an idiot, Willie.

That has never been a wise thing to say here.

Which is pretty much why I expected you to say it.

🫡 thanks for playing. There's a parting gift at the door. So long.

Ah yes, a blast from the past from Blue Man. I have had him on ignore for years because he is a numbnuts and seeing that post confirms it. Thanks Viper
There are a number of people who who can't handle what is right before their eyes which I call out. Hence the name calling begins. Vander Blue Man is one of them

Actually there are plenty of people who understand the problems this team has. Your issue is that you are a constant source of negativity and pessimism, but don't say one word when things go well. That is why people make fun of you.

The idea that they are namecalling because you are some truth-teller is hilarious.

Yes, so many of us have been overwhelmed by Willie's basketball acumen over the years - it can be hard to handle that level of no-BS wisdom. One of the great ball-knowers of our time.

Full credit for using "numbnuts" - has already made my day after a tough loss yesterday.

I still see that if this team is shooting well it can play with anyone.

At some point, you are what your record - or in this case shooting - says you are

Right. That's pretty much what college basketball is these days.

Willie would never name call.

They aren't wrong.  MU is one of them.

[Spaniel with a Short Tail]

The game mentioned in this CNN article that says MU will be a team to be reckoned with in the NCAA tourney.

"Making our three pointers at a rate way higher than our season average" doesn't seem like a great strategy for sustained tourney success.

[willie warrior]

Weird because they lost on a buzzer beater

Talking about entire season, and in particular play of last 6 weeks.

Probably more than that, but your point stands.

Only when the other numbnuts starts it. But when a person cant handle the facts or cannot see what is right in front of him, then they start with the table pounding and insults. Some on this board are experts at that as they (how was it said by somebody here) are in their keyboard domain of the basement.

Yes. The players you name call called you a name first.

Talk about a numbnuts...

But the play from the last three weeks is significantly better than it was 4-6 weeks ago. 4-6 weeks ago isn't really relevant anymore, IMO

And it looks like the game finish is going to make ABC World News. 

[tower912]

It was a great play by SJU.

[NickelDimer]

I have no interest in watching the replay of the final shot but did Ross try to pass or was he stripped?

Stripped.....it was a good play by SJ

Stripped. A little too easy, though, given the circumstances.

I think this is one of those teams that will benefit greatly from getting out of Big East play.

Shaka does much better as an underdog in a tourney setting.

Counterintuitively, I wouldn't be surprised if this was our deepest tourney run under Shaka.

Stevie will become a national sweetheart.

I agree with much of this post. I do think getting away from BE teams and refs will help. I wouldn't be surprised to see a 2nd weekend run depending on matchups. 

But I don't agree with the Stevie comment. Dude has mostly been brutal for a couple months. He's obviously dealing with multiple substantive injuries. I love the guy, but I don't see him going from 0/7 from the field and looking literally awful to being 1/1 Stevie in a matter of 10 days. Hope I am wrong there tho, because we need all of Stevie, Chase and Ben to be playing well for this to be anything more than than an 0-2 or 1-2 close to the season.
