16 offensive boards for Houston =lossntxduck said:
I’d be surprised if UW didn’t win. Houston definitely not as good as they have been the last 2 years. Keep them off the offensive glass (they have a ton of length and love to crash) and UW should be okDoogles said:It's too early to say, but today feels like a must win for the tourney. At least a pretty big insurance policy.
Unless the offense takes considerable leaps forward and we prove we can break a press against athletic teams, 10-8 might be a stretch in the Pac.
This feels like a real opportunity to grab a second "good" ooc road/neutral win to pair with Baylor and save our ass if we slip to the bubble. -
Jaden will get snapped in half by NBA men.ExtraChrisB said:
McDaniels is BTP "Elite" in that IF he reaches his ceiling he'll be a very good player after 3 years in the NBA. Right now he's an incredibly inconsistent player game to game, half to half, possession to possession. He has flashes of brilliance, but does a lot of really dumb shit in between. Flashes don't win you games.UWhuskytskeet said:
You can see there is a ton of potential but the difference between him and Stewart is insane.LongDukDong said:McDaniels trying to run back on the fast break instead of getting the rebound right in front of his face. This dude hella overrated bros
Stewart is elite in that he comes out and imposes his will every. single. game.
I don't care what kind of player McDaniels will be in 2023 for the Detroit Pistons. Stewart >>>

Turns out we still suck.

uhhh we lost to fucking Houston? Time to recalibrate expectations on the season. Just hoping to back our way into the NCAAs now. Embarrassing.

@BroadcastingDawg has had a less than auspicious start on HCH. He's trying to get better at this.ExtraChrisB said:
Huh?BroadcastingDawg said:
No. They're not one in the same. If it was a good good win I would have said as much.creepycoug said:
Umm, seems like those two descriptions make the same point cum stain. Or do you mean something else by "good opponent who we beat by 20+"?BroadcastingDawg said:
I didn't say it was a "good win" cum stain, I said that Ball St. is a good opponent who we beat by 20+. They're a decent basketball team expected to finish near the top of their conference.ntxduck said:
No one tried to seriously claim Texas Southern as a good win, is the difference.backthepack said:
So is Texas Southern!!ntxduck said:Ball state is a Good opponent!!!
Oregon almost lost to Texas Southern who was 3-9...
See the difference? Jesus.
I thought beating them by 20+ was a quality performance... a good win would be eeking one out against Baylor. -
That ball state win will be enough to get in as an at large. Big time non con wincreepycoug said:

It appears back in the poll in October we both voted for:Swaye said:Turns out we still suck.
"Upper echelon of the Pac-12 finish + NCAA tournament early exit"
For me, at least, almost nothing's changed. A team doesn't lose the kind of production UW did from last year and not have struggles unless they're annually reloading with incredible players like Kentucky.
If anything, Stewart has been better than I expected. Most everyone else on roster is just ok. Not a special team; would be happy to be wrong.

Yep. I still see it. Top quarter of conference, 10ish seed and blown out the first weekend.NoWarningJustDawg said:

we can hope by game 30 we will have an offense. I know we ask a lot as dawg fans

Except when he played the ball up into the bottom of the backboard against Houston. That was...specialNeGgaPlEaSe said:

They will still be young and inexperienced. You expect too much out of this team.FireCohen said:we can hope by game 30 we will have an offense. I know we ask a lot as dawg fans
