WSU Versus UNI Predictions and Pregame Discussions

[shockmonster]

20+ point win

They have some size, but not enough depth - wear 'em down, knock them off the(ir) at-large Bubble.

I dunno... another quality loss to WSU could put them safely in at this point.

UNI fans have already set their sights on St. Louis. Equating a 3 game weekend to a Conference Championship.... They don't even care about Saturday. Its all about St. Louis.

I predict MM will loose his balance and fall at least 8 times...LOLOL

Guys want payback for losing 2 in a row to them. UNI seems to be a problem for whatever reason.... but not in this game.

That's pretty good; sure don't want to start a drinking game with how many times MM hits the floor. :)

Must remember he's just a 'newborn calf'...

Honestly, I think this one is a blow out, the Shocks roll big.

Hysterical

When I watch with my buddies, we all get tense when MM starts running and dribbling.... just waiting for it.... :-)
That gif is perfect. He is a great player though.

McDuffie is starting to remind me a lot of Cle's junior season. He has the skills. He knows how good he can be. He's trying to demonstrate them in the game. But sometimes (and a little too often right now) it just doesn't work out. Shot selection and handling the ball in traffic seem to be the two big areas for improvement right now. I like McDuffie and Kelly pushing the ball up the floor off long rebounds. They both just need to recognize that when it ends up being 3 on 3 at the other end, it's time to find a guard instead of forcing the issue.

What I like about GGG, among many things, is that he would never discourage the young man's fast-break dribble attempts, but rather would probably encourage his improvement in that area, if the play is available. GGG's likes his guys to get out on the break and get the easiest shots they can, which is of course lay-ups.
