Game 14: AT Saint Joseph's University, Thursday, January 3rd, 7:30 PM, CBSSN

Reuter: "What are those things Calixte is making?"
Assistant coach: "They're called layups!"

What's a layup... precious?

Calixte needs more minutes

Agreed. Should be starting. He’s the only big who can catch and quickly finish on the block. With Kier and Livingston able to penetrate, that’s all we need from our 5 on offense.

We don’t need any fancy post spins that get blocked 75% of the time.

Love the swagger when we have Boyd, Kier, Hartwell and Wilson on the court together. I just hope nobody trips on Ian's giant balls.

 

[GMUYoda]

Up 9 now... nice job offense

 

[NewPatriot]

Calixe!!!! Nice jump hook!!!

 

[GMUgemini]

I hope this is the game that a Calixte earns his starting spot back. He’s having himself a half of basketball!

Exhibit #1 that last make.

Single game plus/minus numbers are always a dangerous game, but:
Calixte +13 (leads the team)
Reuter -5 ("leads" the team)

It's 64-53 at the 7:48 mark, so I might have to eat this later, but Calixte has been unquestionably better.

Love the effort tonight. Close it out boys!

Greene has been the difference maker, hes played fantastic defense on brown all night.

 

[gmutom]

Playing great ball. This is where we need to take it up a notch defensively without fouling and continue to be aggressive offensively in the paint. Let's finish strong, fellas!

We’re tied at halftime on the road against a team picked 2 spots ahead of us in the preseason poll, and you’d think by reading this board we were down by 20.

Some of you folks must be a real blast at parties.

We were picked one or two in most a10 preseason polls. You don’t get to make up stats or pick and choose mid year projections after our shitty OOC. St joes has always been a team we should beat this year. Just didn’t look like it because of or OOC

 

[FreeGunston12]

So much better all around. Now this I can get excited about!

 

[NewPatriot]

Otis drives me nuts!!!! Just put up a layup on the left and play through contact...no need for a reverse layup!!!

Make the simple play!!!

Oh. He’s never going to stop loving that circus layup.

 

[NewPatriot]

18 pt lead!!!

 

[GMUgemini]

Holy crap, did we just open up a 20 point lead?!

 

[gmutom]

THIS is the team we all envisioned at the beginning of the year! Bravo!

 

[Patriot8]

Consistency has not been an issue in the 2nd half. Calixte has been impressive. Mar getting his groove back. Kier is continuing to develop into a star. Great start to the conference slate.

 

[Patriot Lawdog]

And Otis only play well. Not great. Not out of his mind. This is what we all saw before the year.

Once again, who is this Mason team?

And for f**ks sake... if we can ever
Put together two halves of basketball like this... we would be a very dangerous team
