I know 2-3 players are supposedly leaving but you couldn't tell it from the way the bench kids were in the game and how they played when they were in. Lots of energy. No one hanging their heads. Even Evan who was sitting pine the whole time was way into the game and supporting his teammates. Nico did have one time where he reacted blandly to a "You ready to play" inquiry from the HC and that bought Nico some more time on the bench but the player asked to go back in and Jimmy inserted him immediately. The block of a lifetime followed. Even poor WB seemed upbeat. I know it was senior day but I what I saw was players looking they wanted to be there. ( I will duck now)

Long having a game. Where has that deep pass been all season. Sweet way to end the half. I need only imagine how much better Lavon could have been under different coaching staff. Ahh yes, no personal accountability- blame it on the person you despise. Why is he getting it done his senior year then? Must be he stopped listening to Jimmy after three years? Obviously this fits the narrative for your receptive audience. JP has many faults but Lavon’s(four year starter) progression as a player is on Lavon as much as anybody regardless of how you want to spin it.

No skip, a more disciplined coaching staff would have had more control over his indiscretions and distractions all along. Sorry if you don't like my opinion.

@marksingelais: Siena's @quiswop had 23 points and seven assists in his final regular-season home game against Marist today. Well done kid!

When it was 25-15 Marist they were ready to pounce. Then surprise Siena turned it on and won easy. They had to get in their cars and drive back home disappointed

It's not about wins and losses with me. It's not about getting to the sweet 16. It's not about moving up to a better league. It's about running a solid program that develops both academic and athletic minds. It's about not having drama off the court affect the game. It's about having players with a next man up attitude when someone goes down. How many have said it's been fun watching these kids for four years? Hope you enjoyed it because you aren't going to see a group of four seniors be together again for a bit. Hell you haven't even seen the same four suits in four years.

I see the board instigators have already turned the thread from a discussion on the game to an attack on the fan base. Great job.

If Siena pulls the shocker and wins three next week do we go to Dayton? Currently RPI is 138 and with three wins probably around 110. With some upsets maybe sneak in as a 15. Not what we strive for but it's a discussion I hope we're having a week from Tuesday!
