I will make no predictions. The Shockers are 4 and 0. They are light years ahead of the past few years in terms of effort, bb iq, and overall play. I feel like, this season, I've already had lots of cake and ice cream, but that it might be time to take a bite of the brussel sprout, unfortunately and finally. I plan on being entertained, and I'll cheer and root for my Shockers, and if it should come to taking a spoonful of veggie at the end of the game, we'll, I'll be ok. I'll just close my eyes at the last moment and swallow without chewing. (That's what she said). And finally, go shocks!

I like Brussel sprouts!

That being said. Feels like this will be our first loss. No prediction on score. Just hope for a fun game.

You know what i tell my wife... some people will put the strangest things in their mouth.

[wichshock65]

Screw that. We're going to kick their a$$.

GO SHOCKS!

Their guards are tiny. Bell and Rogers should have a field day. They're two starting bigs are only 6'7 so we need to use height to our advantage

[Onegreatracer]

Watched their entire game. I actually think we match up super super well.

Bunch of little annoying white **** talkers that shoot a lot, hustle a lot, and push the pace. We have a 10 to 1 athletic & height advantage on them and they haven’t seen that yet this season.

They shoot a lot of threes and I am of the opinion our 3pt defense is not fools gold but rather having good defensive instincts.

Both these factors turn it into a dogfight where neither team will really get to their strengths. For the first time in a while, I like our chances in a dogfight.

We’re gonna ****ing punch them in the mouth.

82-77 Shox.

Yea the 1 thing i did notice is they are really small

56 vs. 101 on Kenpom. Are the Shocks ready for Liberty and a 5-0 surpass with a Victory? See below for the answer.

Liberty 56

Boom!

Small can also mean hard for our bigger guys to keep in front of and defend.

It's not impossible to win this one. I think we at least keep it competitive, but ultimately come up short.

Regardless I will root for our Shocks until the final buzzer sounds! #GoShox!

Never stopped me.

I think we are way more athletic and probably skilled better, but liberty plays as a very cohesive unit. Shocks defense really needs to rattle them and we need KP at the high post, he is useless under the basket.
Some of our guys are starting to get their confidence up on their shooting, if that continues we win hand down. I'll go with 86-77 Shox win

PS- prove me wrong on my critique KP !!!!

Kenny Pohto needs to put together a full 40 min. Not coming out charmin soft like he always does. So frustrating.
