re: PREVIEW 2nd Round: LSU vs Maryland Saturday 11:10am CT

This team may actually be kind of good

Ooh, I hope you didn't lay too much down. I'm thinking that's a losing proposition. I think the Terps win outright - too poised (remember, they only had 5 TOs vs. a disciplined Belmont club), too smart, and definitely too focused, as they're playing all out for Turgeon, who seemingly half the fan base wants fired.

I'm guessing LSU hangs around due to their sheer athleticism, but the Terps' youthful savvy and aforementioned poise withstands that and they move on (more like go back) to DC.

GTFO Maryland fan. You know nothing about LSU. Youthful savvy and poise? How, because of one game in which they beat a Mid Major they were more talented than? You have no idea who LSU is, clearly. We play up and down all season long. We are always in control though. To many outsiders it does not seem that way, but we are. Yale hit 4 miraculous 3's in 1 minute to make that game close at the end.

Maryland was a backdoor cut away from losing to a "solid" Belmont team. Belmont is not some world beater.

I am at soccer. How do I live stream it on my phone ?

This is my game dream fantasy:

Smart and Waters drive and dish, preferably to a high flying Taylor (no dumb passes tho). Taylor fles over Fernando,- posterized. Then over Smith. So humiliating and demoralizing Fernando and Smith from the get go.

Mays finding back door cuts, baseline open, Then the lays it in or hands it off to KBW, Naz, or Days..

Naz does some pump fakes, bending those stiff knees of his for a change, gets easy baskets under the rim because Fernando and Smith fall for them every time..

Days comes in as a super-sub and knocks down some 3’s, surprising Maryland defense. Graves comes in at the same time and does the same. Thus pulling the defense out, so Waters can do some epic ankle breaking drives - except he lays it in (or even dunks) instead of dishing it out, alley oop style.

We put on the press sporadically, without any warning and steal the ball, energizing our team in the process.

We DO NOT slow our offense down, and wind down the clock until there’s only 7 seconds to find a shot.

Waters, Mays and Smart get a record amount of steals.

KBW is a blocking machine.

All the players step in to take a charge, in perfect position, not moving feet. Fall, hitting the court, but no Grant Williams-like excessive flops.

Naz doesn’t try to dribble.

Any more dream plays out there?

Joe Alleva is a little bitch. Tony Bedford is underrated.

I can't agree with you more. Now I've been really jittery bout today's game, because of the way we finished the Yale game, but LSU is a better team than Maryland and shouldn't have that much trouble winning. Heck we beat Kentucky, Tennessee and Auburn and you can't tell me Maryland is as good as any of them.

Let’s fricking Geaux!

I've checked in! Any Alleva hating going on today? Having a history of throwing a baw under the bus will make other baws not want tou around, buddy.

At the arena good and vocal crowd
Band is awesome starting “Geaux -Tigers” chant.

Met a bunch of obnoxious Maryland fans walking to arena. They started yelling “Pay for Play”!
One of them told me they were famous for being the worst fans in CBB. By worse he meant name calling and insulting and heckling other teams.

Hop it spurs on our players

Anyone else’s sound going in and out on CBS?
