Not watching or listening but it appears we are having a off shooting night so far

Up 39-22 and you would think it's funeral in here. Can't win every game by 50 folks.

I was just quoting by looking at the box score

Of course you're right, but the game has been very sloppy. Even so, getting some really good looks from outside, but not hitting. A ton of fouls (legitimate ones) too.

Finally able to turn the game on. Not a fan of the new lights. I get why they did it but there are 2 things you never screw with. 1) Hilton Magic & 2) Tailgating. Never.

I love the new lights. They look great on TV and they make the intros way better.

Not with that attitude.

We're playing good defense, but they are too. They're doing a good job of limiting our break and penetration while still staying out on our shooters. Simeon blew a great opportunity here with all the foul trouble.

Nick Babb is impressive

He's had some great put back dunks, I agree, very impressive.

 

[FunCyd]

1)how do the lights effect Hilton Magic? 2) it makes the intros so much better.

Atmosphere is everything. Don't screw with something that was simply perfect. And yes I agree that LED lights give you a lot of flexibility and we can do cool things in intros but is it worth it?

It's also a non-conf game early in the season. There are alot of new pieces to this team so there are going to be growing pains at times. If this happens during conf. play then I can see the concern.

wouldn't you say doing cool things with lights for intros builds into the atmosphere?

 

[GTO]

I've been impressed with Babb's ball-handling, defense, and athleticism. He does a little bit of everything.

Writing his name in ink as a starter next year, and really excited about it.

yeah, don't improve facilities! That will keep the winning tradition alive!

 

[19clone91]

What is Burton doing out there?

 

[IcSyU]

We are poor defensively fundamentally inside to put it rather nicely.

Yes....until the game starts. I've been to a lot of games and venues. Watching basketball in the dark is like well...Carver Hawkeye-ish. Hate it.

 

[Cyclonepride]

Boy, wish they were calling light contact on them too.

I've sat in both the student section and up in the second deck this season. I missed tonight due to an exam but I think people are overplaying this dark venue. It really isn't that dark. People said they can't see banner and stuff. If you really have that bad of eye sight you need to go to the doctors.

I'm glad you're not in charge.
