Gamethread B-Easy vs Jordan (K State vs Tx A&M) 

Post#1 » by revprodeji » Sat Jan 19, 2008 4:25 am

Since these are the 2 guys getting the most love lately I assume many of us will watch it and offer insight. So I thought a game thread would make sense.

LOL @ B-easy. I'm watching it and the Syracuse game(Donte Greene) at the same time. Then i'll watch the Nugget-Wolves game, followed by USC(OJ Mayo), then i'll go over to the gym and run a few pick up games.


What a day for basketball.

Wow, even moreso than the draft thread getting to 91 pages already, having a game thread for a prospect battle's a sign that the Wolves blow chunks.

We've gotta have something to be excited about.

Any predictions guys?

Thanks PeeDee. I was confused about the time because RC said he would be watching both those games at the same time.

Donte Greene did his best Rashad McCants impression, playing well in limited minutes but ultimately fouling out.

I would say half of those calls against Greene were unfounded.

I liked his hustle on defense; he showed good awareness on the defensive side. He also had a few really beautiful moves sliding through the lane. I wish we could've seen more today.

Before he fouled out, it looked like he was about to take over the game.

I disagree with your assessment a little bit...the foul calls were not all that great, but they were justified...Green came in late in the game and started dominating the boards and he played very well before ultimately getting his last foul....but other than at the end of the game, he seemed like an air head...he doesn't have "it" to me....just doesn't go all out 100%...he looked lost a lot too...

LOL, WCCO has the Tennessee game.

The SD station is carrying the USC game though.

I just thought one of the calls on an attempted block and his last foul were questionable. You take those away and we would've seen a lot more of him today.

Yuck, USC has such awful shot selection. I do really like Mayo's perimeter defense though.
