Bump. First game of the season! Who's ready for some hoops?

- Thread starter CycloneRulzzz
- Start date
Ok, so this is literally the worst team we will play all year. Even with that said, who is your new comer to watch tonight?
I'm pretty sure it's like a low budget Hostess Zinger
Guys I'll be watching tonight to see how the'll fit in the rotation:
Starters = Bolton.playing mostly PG SG or SF?
Bench: Griffin playing SF/PF?, Lewis 3 pt shooting and def effort. Battle for 6th man
Freshman Jackson/Grill shooting. I think the one who shoots the best will get minutes to help spread the court. Both should get a lot of run.
I kinda miss ESPN's 24-hour marathon of college hoops to start of the season. Oh well, I will just have to fire up College Slam on the ole SNES until the game is on. That should hold my basketball Jones over until game time.
Prentiss Nixon. Very curious to see how he and Haliburton play off each other in the backcourt. Bolton too, to a lesser degree. He'll get his shots. But I think Nixon will be asked to adapt his game and he won't be a volume scorer/shooter like he was at Colorado State.
Kinda an easy pick but Bolton.Kinda checked out on basketball this off season so I want to see with my own eyes what he's got
Tom Eades reffed Baylor's game so we're good on that front. However, refs have new shirts this year, I do not like them.
Newcomer would be Bolton. We need him to be good.
Overall it would be Zion. Hoping for a big jump.
Seems as though we’ve heard that about Young in seasons past. Plus Jacobson, who did actually attempt 47.
Hopefully it’s true!
I thought the same thing. I think we even heard at one point that Jameel McKay could hit threes.
I hope it's true, too, but I want to see Conditt hitting dunks and layups.
I’m all for him chucking one up there here and there but If we need Conditt’s long range shooting to be a key for us, we are in deep trouble.
