Why is it that i can't post a link to a article on this site?? I tried to post one to a article on Bleacher Report about the top draft prospects and it lets me post it but it doesn't allow it to be clicked so it can be viewed.

Not really Syracuse stinks


They would be much better if they didn't lose C.McCullough and D.Coleman to injuries but because they did R.Christmas is their only true big man and teams just get him in foul trouble and then he can't play the way he really plays cause he's being so careful not to foul.

Yeah his little hooks just weren't falling for him but he did everything else well with 5 assists and 5 blocks. I can't believe almost every so called draft expert has him going in the 2nd round. I would love to get him in the 2nd round if we had one but maybe Phil will get one.

In fact I think okafor showed another level of rebounding tonight and I thought his 1-1 defense was solid.I felt bad for Xmas he missed like 8-9 bunnies and the only mid range shot he took he made. His footwork at times was poor and he started off by using a jumphook which was short more than once.He should've played more explosive to the hoop he boo med like 6-7 shots passed well but really blew the game for Syracuse missing so many easy shots. Okafor is legit he's tight he's going to be a consistent 20-10 right away in the NBA. He's an enormous interior 4 man with explosive movements huge hands with nimble feet and touch.

Christmas getting those two quick fouls really messed him up cause he's our only big man with Coleman and McCullough hurt so he had to play kinda soft trying not to get any more fouls.

If Trevor Cooney didnt have an ultra brickathon in the 2nd half I think Q could have won

Yeah he had a good first half and he was 0-10 to start the second half and Christmas couldn't get his shots to drop either. If it wasn't for Gbinja who's really been playing great the last few games we would of got smoked.

Not big into college ball, but my girlfriend is a big SU fan, so that game was worked into our Valentines day.

I'm absolutely dumbfounded right now why the stat sheet is telling me Okafor had 23/13.

I saw a couple nice post moves from him and a couple nice set ups with him getting the easy bucket, but overall was less than impressed with him. He never seemed dominant on the glass despite SU having Christmas and no one else, and always seemed to take himself out of the action when an SU player was driving down the middle. Can the man jump?

I feel like I must have watched a different game or must not have been paying attention. He shot 10 for 15? Seemed quiet to me...

Yeah if was a very quiet 23/13.... lots of chippy points. Wouldn't describe it as dominant. I thought Christmas had a better game. Shame Christmas blew so many point blank baskets. At least 4 that I saw in the second half. He had a few more in the first half. Dude blew 16 punts worth of chippy points smh
