2018 SBC Regular Season Champions

I agree the biggest thing (besides winning) for these next two games is getting Marquetti back on track.

LOL. This has NOTHING to do with everyone gets a trophy so we can shut that down before it starts. We are playing a conference game that we are favored to win by a good margin. It hurts nothing to start those two guys for 3-4 minutes and let them play. Its a great way to show respect and thanks to guys for sticking with the program for years with little to no playing time.

Feel free to continue to argue against points I didn’t make. It won’t change the fact I just disagree with the approach. You do know you will occasionally meet people on the internet that just happen to disagree, right? It’s fairly common.

No controversy. If he starts them I’ll be glad for them. I know if I was one of them I’d be more focused on not blowing our undefeated home record and slowing our momentum.

Let's understand (provided Stove can go) that you'll be starting THREE 1,000 point scorers.

Let's understand you'll be playing two guys (who don't play a lot), about eight minutes each.

Let's understand you'll be playing the worst team in the league.

With respect, I think you're making way too much of this, Charlie.

I just want to finish off a season undefeated at home. Don’t care how or who does it. Don’t care if it’s by 30 or by 1, on a cheat.

Just finish the job boys.

As pathetic as we were tonight, we still had a 10-pt lead late in the 2nd half. No excuses any way you look at it.

Man, you were the one who chimed in to disagree. That's fine. I aint losing sleep over it. I didn't even check in to this thread til this evening. Not like I'm tracking what you are saying but it goes both ways also.

Does it matter I was exactly right? You don’t mess with the formula when there is still stuff to play for.

I don't know if starting the backups messed up the rhythm but we missed a lot of wide open threes and tried too many alley oops. We seemed to be playing like we were going to win no matter what. In a close game they should come down with that high pass underneath the basket, go back up strong and get the layup and one with the foul. There were a few times when we turned up the intensity on defense, got the steal and blew the fast break. Then we just started playing uninspired again. They wanted it more than we did in OT. jMO. I hope Marlin can get them back on track for New Orleans and beyond.

[Turbine]

I get the idea, but I disagree. They should approach every game with same focused goal of putting the best gameplan and players on the floor to win and win by as much as possible. They need to remain focused...the real goals have not been achieved yet. Need to keep the edge.

You were right in the sense of never toy with losing focus.

The honor would have come in the form of 'First senior class to go undefeated at home in the Cajun Dome.'

Your worries proved true.
