Can this team win 4 in a row at the Garden?

For Dr V

Edit: Oops, messed up options on first try

[DoctorV]

Anything's posssibleeeeeee

Logic says 3 at best, if all things go right.

They can't win 4.

So, guess that gives them something to play for in winning 3 more in the regular season.
Shouldn't have blown tonight's chance!

I'm just talking at the Garden!

Regular season I still think X & Gtown are possible, then Depaul and shocking SJU at home.  Not probable, but possible.

Could someone kindly explain the Arby's reference? Seen it referenced on every poll but never thought to ask about it until now.

[Shooter McGavin]

Yes but unlikely.  St John's and/or UConn will be too much. The other teams will not like seeing MU in their bracket. 

[The Lens]

I think we're "playing like" the 3rd best team in the Big East right now. There's no reason we can't go on a run. We've been in 9 of our last 10 games. We've gone 3-1 at home.  Put us on a neutral floor?

Shaka's played on Friday night 3 years running, you know he's thinking the same thing.

Ideally the bracket falls that we only get one of St. John's / UConn.

Anything is possible in The Garden.

As Mike Deane used to always say: "ain't no thang to get 4"

behind UConn & StJ...and better than Villanova too? 🤔

Mmmmmmmmmm, now I have lunch plans.

You should be banned....

[BrewCity83]

Think about what this MU team might look like in 4 weeks if they improve as much as they have over the last 4 weeks...

Could be dangerous at that point.

[brewcity77]

I said yes. It's improbable, maybe a 5-10% chance, but playing like we are of late it's certainly possible.

I don't think we can beat St John's, but maybe Xavier could do that for us. Not sure we can beat UConn, but Providence or Seton Hall could. I'm certain we can beat Nova, they didn't escape us until the last possession twice.

A lot comes down to seeds. If we're the 6, Xavier the 7, and SHU/PC are in the 8/9, then the odds go up. If we have to get through SJU and UConn, that's not happening.

Championship Week can be chaotic, and Shaka has won two conference tourney titles in 5 years and made the BET semis three straight years. I don't expect it, but given our play the last month and certainly the last two weeks I'm not ruling it out.

Dream on, dream on, dream on until your dream comes true.

Not gonna happen.

Brew,

Do you have any explanation what we're seeing with Chase?  The bottom line is if he's a total no show, we're not making a miracle run at MSG.  2 shots yesterday?  What gives Brew?  Ty.

Tre's box score was petty much the same as Chase's and Chase had 3x the minutes. Yeah! What is going on. 

Well there is always a chance but I don't see us winning 4 at MSG.

I don't recall a starting guard ever at MU taking only 2 shots in a game.  Maybe Derrick...but this is a serious head scratcher.

Just for giggles, I looked it up and Derrick took two of fewer shots in 11 starts during the 12-13 and 13-14 seasons. On Nov. 8, 2013, he took zero shots in 34 minutes against Southern.

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

No. But it's fun to even dream it's possible considering where things were 4 weeks ago.

[dgies9156]

We need to win on the road first before I speculate on the BET.

Wow! That's absolutely mind-boggling from a starting high d-1 guard. 

It sounds like most here have no idea what the deal is with Chase.
