Message: [QUOTE="DNABB5, post: 228109, member: 130"] and lost to a 7. Here is what I am thinking/hoping/praying for. The Seniors need to lead by example. Really Good Scoop shows up. You know, the one hit his off screen threes that were so many daggers in the hearts of NC State or @Cincinnati. Kris likewise needs to not just be a perimeter player, and get some got back to the basket drive like the couple late game ones we've seen. And please, try to keep the dribbles off the foot/knee to less than 2 in the tourney. I am really really really hoping that these two can the spearhead in a run to the FF. In this crazy season where Syracuse was marred with the current evils of sports with trifecta of shame, SJ and KJ are leading this, our greatest (hopefully not just regular) season. It seems like only yesterday I was in Memphis seeing Kris Joseph nail two back to back three's or Scoop come in and hit a 2 3's late in a losing effort with his old herky-jerk shot from the rafters here in Cincinnati...nostalgia aside... I know they want this. There has been many times this year where we as fans certainly saw that our team knew they were better on the court and coasted. Really, it is true that NCAA basketball regular season is like one long scrimmage and the tourney is "when the lights come on" I was talking to minicuse about Big Game James and how he was essential to a tourney run. He need to be in Pitt and Boston. A few 4-6 or 5-7 nights would be great. Same goes with C.J. Fair who has not been everywhere of late. Pace was a huge key in 03 the comparisons have been made. He needs to step it up to mid season form. A beautiful thing is that we are so deep. All the talk of losing Melo kill the defense. Well, giving up 67, 63 and 61 without his isn't exactly terrible. All in is sweating right now Marsh but my chips have been in the middle since IMPOSSIBLE IS NOTHING!!! It seems everyone is counting Syracuse out now. I still like our chances. Oh, and Rak's learning curve is gonna go exponential. [/QUOTE]
