If Freeman stays consistent and we get a bump up game from anyone (whether it be JJ, Kyan, Kingz, George... whoever), I think we'll be ok against teams we should beat and compete against teams that will be better than us.

I know I'm the board JJ hater in residence, but like you said, it's not fair to expect him to replicate that game. It's a dramatic outlier, but it doesn't mean he can't or won't contribute or even have another game like that down the line. And to argue against myself, the dude is shooting basically 35% from three which is a substantial jump from his career average and around 25 percentage points higher than his best year as a soph.

But I can see a game or two where Kingz hits a bunch of threes to push us to victory. Or George gets to the line where he has another 10 for 10 game.

Overall, it's nice just being, without question, better than other conference teams. We were better than Pitt, unquestionably. And that is a giant leap forward from last year.

My. biggest worry is we barely miss the NCAAT and it's a what-if season with Houston, Hofstra, etc losses. But they just need to keep winning now. Donnie will be the best player on the floor during a lot of games.
