Game Thread: Toilet Bowl - Mason (1-4) vs UMass (1-4) Wednesday, Jan 22. 7PM

Umass sucks but beating a team you are supposed to beat is a nice feeling.

Umass has lost 20 straight in conf on the road.

At least it seems like Greene has decided that he's going to take over and become the guy.... Although, we'll see what happens against Davidson. Gotta think they'll make stopping him the #1 priority.

Toliet bowl champs!

Love the Oduro middy game, and Greene not forcing and getting 30+ again. He easily could have had more if a few of those 3's fell. AJ has been in a slump, he had a terrible shoeting percentage tonight. He seems to be working on his turnaround/fadeaway jumper....before his regular jumper ever really developed. Start knocking down the mid range jumpers consistently, and THEN you can take those tough shots

Davidson put SLU in heavy foul trouble tonight... and shot over 30 FTs... so defense maybe our problem

 

[gmubrian]

If I am doing my math right, we are currently out of the PIG.

 

[sleeperpick]

See, where the fook has this type of game been?

Down 40-31 with 13:37 left in the 2nd half... and end up winning the game 73-63.

Ended the game on a 42-23 run

We haven’t played a glorified d2 team in a month or so

 

[Falco]

Well some bright moments.

yup and GW pooped against Fordham. If we pull out a W @davidson we are on more solid footing for avoiding the pig

How far our expectations have fallen.

How far our expectations have fallen.

That's not an expectation, that's a statement of reality. Better for your blood pressure to exist in reality right now than to have impossible expectations.

Hell, beating Davidson on the road is not going to be easy. They still have Grady and JAG, and those two can still take over a game.

 

[Leesburg Chankenstank III]

We’re only two games out of 3rd place. We should shift the discussion to who we will play in the NCAA tourney.

My expectations are not, and have not been set high at all for this season. See post from 9/25/19.

That was a must win tonight, really liked what we saw from Greene offensively and Oduro with his best game of the year. I’ll buy that he’s not quite there defensively but he’s ahead of where I’d expect offensively.

I wish that Miller wasn’t so passive offensively. Need more than 2 guys in double figures to stay in games over this next stretch.

 

[The Great PATSby]

39 and 32 point games... If Javon doesn’t get Player of the Week then I’m burning down the Barclay center.

 

[gmujim92]

I shit myself and told the lady next to me I was Gmu Jim

Good shit man

 

[By George.]

Oduro held his own, proud of him. It’s hard to really even knock him defensively, he’s a little slow but rebounds hard and takes up space. Glad we’re playing our centers again, would like to continue to see one of them get the bulk of the load each game.

 

[Patriotsince81]

A win is a win is a win. Ugly, but I'll take it against a really bad team. Given Javon's success of late he'd better be ready for everyone's top defender and effort.

 

[FreeGunston12]

Wasn't there a lot of discussion in the off season about Greene not being able to play the point? I call BS on that. We should've been starting him there with Kier and Miller at the 2/3 respectively. What could've been at least.
