If things even out, we'll get all the calls and all the rolls in the second half. So we have THAT to look forward to.

In the little bit of Cornell I've gotten to see this tournament...
…they look EXACTLY like a better version of last year’s team. That’s not supposed to be Capt. Obviousesque, but I understand that it does.

It's basically the same roster, so...yeah.

In the sense that, for example, their big man (No. 1)...
…looks like he’s gotten a LOT better. I remember that he was a damn-near liability last year.

obviously your not an idiot
I just think its hilarious when people go crazy over that stuff
Rays and Rams Baby
Their star is a Birmingham kid
Butler’s star point guard is from my daughter’s school, Homewood. Cousins and another Birmingham kid play for Kentucky. So, how good would Alabama or Auburn be if they could keep kids in state?
We're poised to make a run.
At some point in this next half the game will be tied, you can count on that.

That's what I've been thinking...
They started looking a little gassed in the last few minutes of the first half.
He hit it good. He hit it good.
Need to work the refs a bit
Should be having a nice chat about West Virginia and their normal fouling numbers compared to the first half. Just a little reminder to get them to even things out a bit.

So, how about that Steve Moore?
He played very well in the first half, I thought.
"Don't settle for mediocrity. Be better than the best. Strive to become legendary at everything you do."
-Kim English
Yeah, haven't seen his game like that
all season long.
"So we finish the 18th and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, 'Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know".
What I loved was when he saved a ball from going out of bounds,
dribbled into the lane and kicked it out to somebody for three. He also took the ball down low and kicked it out to Taylor for three.
"Don't settle for mediocrity. Be better than the best. Strive to become legendary at everything you do."
-Kim English
if he could just develop an offensive game
His low post moves are horrendous
Rays and Rams Baby
blocking a ball into the opponents face
is also admirable.
"So we finish the 18th and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, 'Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know".
he's gonna be a real asset on D next year
if he can gain some offensive skills this summer, we could see him as the most improved player for next season, earning his minutes
"They’ve taken the Illini to the woodshed."
-Steve Lavin on Mizzou v. Illinois
He just needs to not be a black hole
The bar for him being a useful player in our system is not very high.
Not afraid to nitpick
Your first half AdjGS leaders:
Bowers 13.0
Dixon 6.0
Moore 4.5
Tiller 2.4
English 1.2
Ramsey 0.7
Taylor 0.5
Denmon -3.1
I’m not even going to look up if anybody had a Bowers-Dixon-Moore trifecta.

Absolutely no shame in losing to West Virginia

OK, a summation of my feelings.
In one way, I’m really sad that it ended this way. I’m upset because I’m not totally Missouri isn’t better than West Virginia. Missouri didn’t get the rolls, and didn’t get the breaks. That’s frustrating to say the least, and hair-pulling maddening to say the most.
In another way, this is exactly how I wanted Missouri to lose. The Tigers played their game — hard nosed, hustling, workmanlike — and came within a few rolls of beating one of the best teams in the nation (depending on whom you ask).
So, I’m torn. But the only thing I’m totally sure of is that next season, I’m going to wear my black and gold (with black headband and all) and yell myself hoarse again.

"So we finish the 18th and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, 'Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know".
None, if I were to guess.
The best bet is English, but he A) adores Mizzou and B) would be a late second-rounder at best, in my estimation.

English and Denmon pros? If they can get more consistent shooting then yeah.
I think Dixon could, but I’m not sure. I haven’t seen enough of Pressey or Mitchell to really gauge if they can go to the NBA. Somebody who I think might have a chance to go pro is Bowers. Demarre Carroll was never thought of as a pro when he transferred from Vanderbilt, but after one good season and then one amazing season as a senior, he’s now in the NBA.
"Don't settle for mediocrity. Be better than the best. Strive to become legendary at everything you do."
-Kim English
I'd think Bowers probably has the best chance in the NBA
He’s long and athletic which the NBA loves and he seems to have a decent looking shot when he takes the initiative. He’d need to put on a good amount of muscle but he has the most NBA transferable talent at 6’8 with hops. Maybe Dixon given his speed and seeming ability to finish in traffic. Either way, no one on the roster now is NBA-good enough to warrant coming out early anyway IMO. Denmon not athletic enough to be an undersized NBA #2 and English can’t handle the ball to offset inconsistent-to-say-the-least shooting. This isn’t saying they aren’t good in college or even Senior year draft picks, but they aren’t top-15 picks that leave early.
Hopefully Mitchell changes all that…..but for some reason still stays 4 years.
Not afraid to nitpick
I have Utah State winning that game, so I don't care who wins.
Do I root for in-conference rival that ended a 32-game home winning streak just so it makes Missouri look like it’s in a better conference?
