@ SLU - Friday 7pm on The Deuce
- Thread starter SFspidur
- Start date
definitely need him. numb it, brace it, and wrap it up. glad it's his left. bad time of year for this. maybe he shouldn't have gone for the dunk. 
Maybe Golden can salute him with his fractured finger?
Pumped up this one! What was the last regular season game that had so much riding on it? NET factor and belief UR will be the best team in the A10 by season's end. I believe the Spiders are going to get the top 4 even with a loss. Though want to see with a win how close they get to VCU and Bonny with NET.
I know some here think a win tomorrow night gets them closer to an at-large bid but I only see one and Bonny or VCU has there name on it.

This is why they play the game. I am confident our guys have herd immunity especially against mythical trolls from St. Louis.
This is an interesting auto-generated overview of tomorrow's game.

I don't agree with it that the final score will be 75.59 to 69.90. But I've been wrong before.This is an interesting auto-generated overview of tomorrow's game.

Round up to the first decimal and you’ll feel better.
I don't know man. I had this as a 67.136 to 62.9854 game in our favor, personally.
Agree, I think the player, Cairo, was a bit embarrassed because he had a bad turnover and hustled back to save face. I believe Grant will play through it just fine. Much better than shooting hand. No more dunks sman 😀😃
It's a good thing those weren't repeating decimals. Imagine a never ending game. We do not want anyone's head to explode.

well boys, here we are at the latest and possibly the last "must win game" of the season
Yes, that was 7th/8th grade though, they changed to NE6 the next year and went on a recruiting run, so my son as a 6'1 PF all the sudden was replaced by this guy, ironically just saw this tweet - no. 23 in this picture haha:
I'm just hoping we make it through the morning without a surprise press release from the A10......
Back on track here, yes, this is another HUGE game. SLU coming off of two losses, should be in desperation mode, as should the Spiders. Bubble seems crazy this year, but it just seems we need to have this one to stay close to it.
1) Need Golden to forget about the finger, play tough and aggressive inside.
2) We need the all league type of Burton to show up. He is going to need to grab about 12 rebounds in this one.
3) Cayo needs to keep up the good play and continue to attack.
4) Sal and Grace. Not feeling like a good Matty Grace game, hoping he proves me wrong. Sal - do your job and grab 5 rebounds in this one.
5) Gilyard - This would be the time to break out of the offensive doldrums. Looking for 20 points, 4 made threes.
We need to play our A game. SLU coming off two road losses, we have won two home games. I feel like last two games our offense has been back in synch following the covid pause/ VCU game. Keep that up, AND play some tough D and rebound the ball. Need to rebound the ball in this one or will be a long night.

this is probably my biggest concern. SLU knows where they were trending before their mega pause, those guys are going to play HANGRY after losing a game to the guys down the street that they absolutely should have won. I hope we are ready for it.
Probably one of the biggest games in a number of years for us. We all know how Mooney does in big games. Hoping our guys can buck that trend tonight. I always like to prepare myself to be disappointed though.
UJC9 is still on the ground at CPS, so we haven't headed for home yet!

I don't know, I think I'm ok with a one and done offense.
As long as we have 0 Offensive rebounds and they have 0 Defensive rebounds...

Win this game however we have to. Ugly, pretty, because of injury, I don't care. Just win the damn game.
We have a huge chance to really stick it to Jon Rothstein tonight and slay his wet dream team. That alone should be motivation enough.
I’ll take 0 0ffensive rebounds if they have 0 as well. Then we need to win the shooting contest. I believe we can win the turnover battle.....I hope
Ooh...I just want to be able to say the Spiders slew SLU.
Anyway, Mooney says we're physical, so we should be all good tonight.
I'm still looking too far ahead, and thinking about my semifinal preview headline.
UR Seed 2, Take Two, Redo, at the STU vs VCU...
I remind myself tonight that we are tough enough. Watching St.Louis get all these rebounds. I wonder can we learn how to box out please? St.Louis is 4.5 favorite tonight. I believe I will take it to the bank. Picked St.Louis and the spread.
someone's got to hit from outside. Blake seems the most likely, but would love to see Gilyard and Burton find it again.
23, are you a NY Lightning dad? we saw them a few times over the years.
That was quite a quote. I wonder if it was just some sort of stream of conscientiousness thing for Mooney. Clearly it's the not the UR team we know.
We need to box out & prevent oodles of 2nd chance points. I remember watching St L last year living in the paint. Prevent that!
Is that the best you can do? Where is your double reverse jinx, as applied to the SLU game? It was so effective last time, the entire game was canceled.
Being "fluid" and being physical are pretty much polar opposites of one another. So, will be an interesting contrast for sure. If I'm a coach though, I would always want my teams to be known for being tough and physical.
Gonna need guys like Burton, Cayo, Goose, maybe even Wilson to play really hard minutes tonight. They are our players which I would say play the game with a physicality.
