       hope the crowd is loud.. man if we can get a TSM breakaway dunk,
       I think place will be rocking. Feels like forever I’m heading to
       the bench for pregame dinner and drinks and then heading to the
       arena.

       DD10, welcome to our board!  Glad to have another CAA fanatic
       around to chat.  Thanks for your thoughts and im sure youll find
       a lot of value on our forum.  Looking forward to recurring
       discussions with you.
       With that said, our team has been through some recent turmoil,
       only to start turning it around very recently.  Best of luck to
       you and your team but GO SB!!!  ;D

       a force on the offensive side, but isnt. It is mostly due to the
       offense we run and put him in, not because of his talent. Its
       frustrating and constant talk amongst our fans. He will make
       every team's night a rough one down low, he has that type of
       impact. Conditioning still seems to be an issue and he does
       still get the occasional game where he gets into early and often
       foul trouble but when he is on the court his defensive presence
       will be felt.

       movement a team running at our pace should have. Its not good
       basketball. But its been effective enough. By that I mean we
       have taken care of teams we should but the higher calibur teams
       we struggle against. Our shooting is unpredictable from night to
       night, so that is always a wildcard. If we shoot well we will
       always give ourselves a chance to win, but we will also go on
       long scoring droughts that put us in a tough spot. Tonight is a
       coin flip of a game, for sure. Welcome to the CAA for sure.

       Thanks for chiming in from the Drexel perspective. In the times
       I've seen you guys, I thought I saw a lot of motion, but maybe
       this is coming from somebody who's used to stagnant offense from
       Stony Brook. I feel like you get good looks at least. I think
       Williams could be an 18-20 point guy, but I don't know if he's
       even looking to do that. Only 10 shots a night? He reminds a
       little of a thicker, better Max Brooks from Lowell – gifted but
       more of a force defensively and on the glass than in the scoring
       column.
       One number that I didn't point out is how few threes that Drexel
       is allowing teams to take and make. 85 opponent threes to our
       154 opponent makes? That is a wild disparity.
       I may start putting a few shekels (very low stakes) on every CAA
       game just to see how it goes. Good start yesterday – 3-1 and
       would've laid the 18 with Hofstra but I can't seem to bet NY
       games. Can you? Is that a thing?
       BTW, if we're talking crowds, this is a CAA regular season game.

       There are times we look great with movement, there are other
       times we have 2 guys standing in a corner doing nothing.
       Williams could be that guy but we dont ask him to do so, and
       realistically he cant if we have him at the elbow. If we parked
       him down low he could easily be that 20 point guy, instead we
       put him out of position on purpose, what that purpose is our
       fans are baffled at yet.

       If anybody going to the game tonight sees Heilbron can you ask
       him if he has a contract and if he does when does it run
       through.  Let us know.

       I want to get excited for this, but seeing Priore AND Heilbron
       both get extensions has really removed any enthusiasm I had for
       this athletic department. Nice to now have to pay for Flo to
       catch a game tho.

       Just saw Priore hanging out in the arena. Disturbing.
       Pisses me off just seeing his face
