Wow, thank you everybody for the compliments. I really was not expecting so much love.
I for one, thought it was way too long
Thanks for sticking with me for the whole thing.
You the man, gen
It's sopho-moronic threads like this that drive the serious basketball posters away. This board sucks. I'm leaving. Oh Lord
If not, he should feel bad.Dear General, does Boeheim read your posts? I hope so. Love, Beadle
Just interrupted a dinner out with friends saying "General just posted his UNC preview. Be right back."
Best decision I made all night and the sea bass was excellent.
Thanks!
My memory, not always as accurate as I would like, tells me that, in the NC game against Roy's Jayhawks, JB employed the exact strategy you describe. I was fearful before the game of Kansas' transition game and once the game started, noted that we were willing to give up the boards to get back on defense. Anyone else recall it the same way?
Also, thanks General for you comments on the 'psychological' explanation of 'playing down to the competition'. Can't tell you how much I have always hated that weak explanation that tries to pass for analysis.
That's the most I've read in a few years.
Worth it. Great post.
Over/under on number of threes for Paige? I'll go with 5.
Do you see what I am getting at here?
Michigan St. ALWAYS crashes the offensive glass hard.
Michigan St. NEVER changes what they do because of the opponent.
Actually, General's post is the type of post that used to be reserved for the pay side.
Cheers,
Neil
