    Hes improved immensely, but I still can't wait to not watch David Crisp on this team next year

    What was the highest regular season conference win total we had under Romar?

    3 seasons at 14-4 was the peak

    Its only year two of Hop and I think I'm already taking for granted how amazing our defense is, this is really special.

    Hameir was awesome defensively tonight, I still think he could end up being good. He has the skills to be decent offensively, he just plays with less than zero confidence.

    I love this team, I love Hop. Go Dawgs!

    Hameir has a good shot. None of his 3's miss badly. He reminds me of Darnell gant. Similar players who came around offensively late

    Goddammit! This team is pretty fucking good. At one point we outscored Utah 43-15 between late in first half and the midway into the second. 43-15. Jesus. This was a Ute team that averaged 79 points in our shitty league. Matisse makes us a tourney wildcard. His pairing of unusual length and uncanny anticipation takes the Hopkins defense to a level that I'm not sue even he thought this team could play at. Goddammit! Fuck, if we hit shots in the tourney then we might make it to the second weekend. We could most definitely make a run if any two of Crisp, Nowell, Tisse or Green get hot over a weekend. Our defense is that good right now. Shit, some team from the east coast may decide that Dickerson isn't the best scorer on the team, leave him singled, and he could go off for 25. Fucking shit, I'm dodging HARD!!!

    They’re fucked in the tourney if someone figures out they can’t break a press.

    Yep. The coaching matchup will be really important, as will the caliber of the athletes on the other side.

    But really that's the teams only major flaw. They're shooting is streaky but that's everybody. Their ballhandling is shittier fucking awful. If somebody wants to knock us? out, that's the only way to do it besides praying for an off shooting night.

    Crazy to dream about this team with a senior D'Jounte Murray...

    Yep. Crisp becomes primarily a shooter off the bench with occasional backup PG duties to handle the ball in short spurts when Murray and Nowell need a breather and/or when you need an extra handler on the court.

    That would be damn near the perfect roster, especially for Hop.

    Obviously a fantasy world, but a fun one. Let's not even need to think about having Marquesse Chriss at the four instead of Hameir.

    These what if roster games are fun to play until you check out the teams Kentucky and Duke would have.

    I know, that's why I didn't include Fultz.

    Hamier won us the Kansas game last year. People forget that.
