What would RockRaven say?

Sensing negativity creeping back into the board. Use this thread to post your most positive take no matter how bleak the situation may look!

For instance, tonight we face a hall of fame coach on the road with infinitely better recruits without two of our better players.

What would Rock say?

Without Hawkins and inserting Carrington into the starting spot, our defense will be much better!

Or

Our FT% will be sky high with no PP!

Or

Jack Wilson may get to display his 4* status!

 

[LesBolstad]

A chance for Cam Christy to have a coming out party like this freshman did in 2003!

Carmelo Anthony, Syracuse University’s freshman sensation, scored 25 points to lead the Orangemen to a 76-75 win over the Michigan State Spartans in front of a capacity crowd of 14,759 at the Breslin Center.

Betts finally takes all that he applied in owning Battle in practice to the court and scores his 10th point of the season.

 

[BarnBurner]

Betts scores 35 in thrashing of Sparty!

 

[Bob_Loblaw]

He would point to Ihnen's regression as further proof that Betts is destroying souls at practice.

Johnson manages depleted rotation very well (with no options).

 

[MonikerSchmoniker45]

Would be really cool if Cam had a big game against his brothers alma mater.

 

[Wet_Blanket_Guy]

Cam’s wingspan has grown in the last few weeks, and it will allow him to shoot over all defenders and essentially do finger rolls from the three point line (with normal form).

The most important thing is to get the young players some experience for next year.

Next year is Ben Johnson's year zero.

Hate to lose but with backs against the wall, they played hard. Really surprised by the efforts of JOJ, Payne, and Christie. At times, it was 2(Mitchell and Garcia) vs 8 ( msu and refs) and they were still in it after 37 minutes. Tonight should put to rest a lot. Shorten the rotation and Payne/Garcia do not compliment each other on the floor.

Seriously, I like it when we return everyone. It's more fun than knowing we will have big holes to fill.

Hawkins & Payne doing TOO well now means they're more likely to get bribed away.

We could always root for them to get injured like RockHardMelons suggested last year...

Well the way the world is becoming....cheering for injuries doesn't seem too far-fetched.

We might want Garcia to slow down. We want him back next year. Could be the key to making an NCAA run. Am I wrong?
