Curious to know who recognized the Dr.? Must have been the head coach as it's not likely any of the players actually "spotted" him.

Not sure about that as several players tweeted spotting him before DP did.][/QUOTE]

Have to agree with Chankenstank here. We have offspring of folks who played ball who certainly would have been brought up knowing who Dr. J was. You'll still see his highlights on ESPN and other pro basketball networks. It's also not like he was 6'2".

Sportsbook has the line at 7 1/2 and over/under at 137.

I predict that we are going to drive the sports books insane this season because of inconsistency game-to-game.

Lost at home as a fairly heavy favorite in the opener.

Time to win on the road as a dog.

It's the only thing that makes sense.

Mercer is unproven. They struggled against something call Allen. We can win if the shots fall and Shevon dominates. I predict both will happen. we win

Sign me up for Mason +7.5 and the under....going strong; like, my son gets half the presents he would get at Christmas normally if I lose strong...

I like our chances here only because we are so young. New coach, new recruits, the kids just want to play. They'll definitely want to play better than last game.

 

[bravesfan]

I'm saying Mason wins. Why? Because why the f*ck not.

 

[gmutom]

They are playing into our hands by covering us man to man. That allows us to drive and get easy looks for Thompson. Did they not scout us and realize we have no shooting guards in our starting lineup?

Edit: After we jumped out to an 8-2 lead, they finally got smart and switched to a zone. Duh!

 

[polepino]

Great start! 8-2 Mason!

 

[Washingtonian]

A lot of rebounds early.

 

[Haxormax]

Anyone getting sound issues?

Love seeing Shevon own everyone

 

[gmutom]

Nice to see Livingston knock down a 3. We need to make them pay when they dare us to shoot.

 

[polepino]

Liking the perimeter passing so far. Keep the ball moving.

 

[Washingtonian]

15 all at the under 12 media.

Seems like they've sorted out the sound problem.

22-17 Mason under 8 media.

Livingston is really playing well so far with 10 early points. The team definitely looks more poised and focused, which I'm sure has a lot to do without not having to deal with the first-game jitters in front of a home crowd.
