I remember KK saying all Wormley needed to do was play defense and not do anything stupid. He's got it covered. And then some.

We would have lost this game by double didgets last year. This year's team is resiliant more co-hesive. The freshman are game changers on the defensive side with their quickness and length. Still, more work to do but a lot of upside to these Saints.

He thinks you need a bushel of stats otherwise you are not playing well, intangibles don't show on a stat sheet. Wormly is a smart steady player. I love the intensity both he and Nico both bring to the game and for freshman just 5 games into the season ... Impressive

Seriously. I don't understand why we don't play defense. Or play it better. Even if the current bunch of coaches haven't taught them anything, they must of had some fundamental instruction in high school. Some of the things they don't do, would drive a bitty basketball coach nuts. I thought the effort in the second half and OT was great. You were okay with the play in the last game, but not this one. Are you an idiot? Apparently a rat's brain is larger than yours. The effort was good, Greyhounds were hitting threes like crazy. The defense tightened up in the second half and we came back with a very solid effort.

Yup Loyola shot lights out most of those shots they hit in the first half where with a defender right in their grill. Sometime a couple of guys just get hot.

We would have lost this game by double didgets last year. This year's team is resiliant more co-hesive. The freshman are game changers on the defensive side with their quickness and length. Still, more work to do but a lot of upside to these Saints. The freshmen certainly help, but it is also about leadership, leadership and leadership. This team has it and last year it was lacking. The lack of leadership and injuries sunk last year's team.

Just noticed I predicted Siena by 8 and what do you know Siena won by 8 points Siena outscored the Hounds 56-33 the last 22 minutes including OT. First time Siena played back-to-back OT games since 2010-2011 (lost both) First time Siena scored 90 points since a 103-95 loss to Quinnipiac in 2014. First time Siena scored 90 points in a win since a 99-79 to Brown in 2009 also the last time Siena started 4-2.

Oliver had a bad pass and his shot is clearly still off. I'm sad. Newsflash, I root for the entire team. oneindian is now tag teaming me with PPC on the other board too. I hope you two are happy together. Have the PM's started yet?

That said didn't think Jimmy had his best game plan today but was better in the second half with adjustments. We still have a lot to clean up but winning is a great thing while getting better and better.

Just because you can't enter his stats it into your little excel spreadsheet doesn't mean the kid can't play.

I didn't give a rats ass about PPC this opinion is my own. Youve done but run your mouth about Wormley. Man up. He hasn't just shown up. Just because you can't enter his stats it into an excel spreadsheet doesn't mean the kid c Yet, here you are talking trash when his stats show up on the spreadsheet and you're gloating like I'm upset about it. Tell me, would you be here gloating if the stats didn't show up in the boxscore? So, in essence, you've proved my point. He needed to "make his presence known". He did that. And I am happy. The Saints won.

It's you my friend that doesn't get it ....The game is played on the floor not on paper.

It's you my friend that doesn't get it ....The game is played on the floor not on paper. Lighten up dude. The kid just raised his ppg average to a whopping 2.8 points per game. And it was against a team we should have beaten by 20. I hope it continues. And I hope he and LL score 70 a night if it means we win. I'm not out here for "I told you so's".
