UTEP vs Long Beach State
- Thread starter MinerManiac
- Start date
Bronzeing said they were gonna shake things up tonight or something like that
So let's shake things up by sitting the guy who is our best overall player, our best defender, and who plays with the most intensity game after game? Yeah, makes sense
Long Beach is pretty good, they only lost to UNCG by 23 last night, Gonzaga by 43, and San Francisco by 30.
Gents "enjoy" the game, I have to pick up my son from the airport. Hopefully when I get back we won't ne sucking so much, but I'm not holding my breath
This is what we should have done yesterday. No business getting dominated yesterday.
Terrell needed a game like this. Hopefully this gets him going.
Everyone is welcome that I had to leave to the airport. When I left we were losing, while I was gone we went on an incredible run.
Has anybody seen Kevin Kalu? Did his arms fall off or something?
Who cares? (Sh)itter is shit. Avoid that place. It's as toxic as toxic gets.
Just to be on the safe side don’t watch tonight and depending on the result until further notice please and thank you.
Man, this is harsh. I was just going to suggest that he go to the airport. And never leave.
Like this guy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mehran_Karimi_Nasseri
Nasseri's story inspired "The Terminal" (Tom Hanks).
It's a simple formula. A formula that Haskins new well. If you have more possessions than your opponent, you have a higher probability of winning. If you get a +12 turnover margin, but you lose the rebounding battle by 12, your hard work on defense means nothing. If you win both, you get a +10, +20 possessions, you win more often. That's why Haskins always preached rebounding, defense and taking care of the basketball not 3 point percentage. UTEP took 20 more shots than Long Beach last night.
