No needs for likes my dear orange friend... Just thought since I U fans don't think we have a history as "storied" as theirs I could present them a small time capsule of SU history in basketball. Also, it provides y'all in the office with some viewing pleasure to pass the work hours till the shift whistle blows. Thank goodness for spring break.
Only because we won. Kid is a dirty dirty little athlete.
I love the selection of highlight reels, but I disagree that this team does not have any high flyers... the front line of CJ Fair, Jerami Grant and Rakeem Christmas, when out there, could be the most athletic in the nation. Jerami Grant can throw down if he gets the room (and the minutes!) to do so. CJ has had a number of facial dunks in the past 2 seasons.
I don't disagree with the fact that this years team has athletes that at times can make athletic plays, it just seems in the past that we had one or two players who would take over games with their athleticism and change the flow of the game. This years team doesn't seem to have that guy (I am a HUGE CJ fan). Maybe because this team is ugly in the offensive half while other teams were more offensive focused and not as strong on the defensive side. I would say the one guy that is close is JS but he is on again off again. This years team is just a lot different then what we have been used to over the past decade. I have been trying to figure out thinking back. I think the first thing is we had centers that other teams had to at least respect on the offensive side, could clear space. The second is that we had more than one player who was a constant threat from the three. Teams don't have to respect BT or MCW but can crash down closing down slashing lanes.
