Injury I believe

The team we beat 73-62 in our first game played Rice yesterday. Rice won 87-85.

 

[GreenLantern]

Don't underestimate Spanish teams. If I recall, Spain fielded a decent Olympics team

Had a random thought today: Is Logan Samuels not on the trip?

Interesting observation, he def wore Mason gear at Kenner League.

If the first NBA Olympic "Dream Team" can lose to a college All Star team in a live scrimmage, pretty sure we can lose to anyone if we don't play in sync.

All this talk about how good our competition is relatively irrelevant right now.

 

[GreenLantern]

Scores here are mostly irrelevant. The goal is to get our guys to mesh and work together and this is an opportunity to do so well before October.

Reuter is clearly going to help.

 

[GMU_DCU]

Just watched this full game. Was most impressed by Kier and Hartwell. Reuter looked a little rusty out there maybe not in game shape yet, hopefully that will come. He did show some good moves getting to the basket though and couldn't get a call to save his life. He was mugged on a few occasions with no call. Kier hit two threes, hopefully he is out of the funk he was in last season. I also noticed the hitch in Calixte's free throw form is much less pronounced but he still missed both shots. Boyd/AJ/Mar/Greene showed pretty much the same things they showed for us last season.

Reuter made a move today (that was shared via Twitter) that reminded me of Jai Lewis.

#27 on Mataro looks like he is 35 years old.

He is actually only 18. Spaniards only look old due to the withering effects of the sun and the fact that the drinking and smoking age is 14.

As Mr. Burns would say... excellent

Adding Reuter to go along with Calixte (who averaged roughly 6 points and 5 rebounds on 24 minutes per game during conference play as a freshman) will make for an extremely dynamic front court over the next 2 years. Not to mention the insane athleticism and energy that AJ will bring to the 4/5 spot.

That's nice and all but what Rothstein forgot to mention is Jarred:

· threw a grenade and killed 50 people, then it exploded.
· counted to infinity. Twice.
· can pick oranges from an apple tree and make the best lemonade you’ve ever tasted.
· can hear sign language.
· can strangle you with a cordless phone.
· was once on Celebrity Wheel of Fortune and was the first to spin. The next 29 minutes of the show consisted of everyone standing around awkwardly, waiting for the wheel to stop.
· There is no theory of evolution, just a list of creatures he allows to live.


I know Twitter has a character limitations, but still, that's pretty lazy journalism if you ask me. Step your game up, Johnny.

I was impressed with Calixte last season. I know there is a lot of hype around Reutter, but I am equally as excite for Calixte. Mason hasn’t had depth at the Center spot in years.

We had Shevon Thompson, Jalen Jenkins, and Marko Gujanicic all on the same team like three seasons ago...

Not to diminish your enthusiasm, but that's a short lens you've got there.
