What was that sound? Rubio, Flynn are your newest Wolves
June 25, 2009 by
On The Wolves
| Comments
It was an eruption inside Target Center at the fan party when David Stern called Ricky Rubio’s name out for the Wolves.
You sure didn’t hear that often last winter.
It took about a second for that “Ole, ole, ole” soccer chant to resonate through NBA City.

5-0!!

Orange Hoops

Syracuse has done itself a big favor and virtually guaranteed itself a berth in the NCAA tournament this year, barring a complete collapse by the team. It’s only November, but the wins over top 20 teams Kansas and Florida can not be underestimated in their importance for the total...
Overrated, not!
December 20, 2008 by
Orange Hoops
| Comments
I have been seeing a lot of posts on Syracuse message boards that the Cleveland State loss showed the Orange are overrated. I would beg to differ; in college basketball, particularly 10-12 games into the season, the rankings are typically ‘earned’ not ‘given’. Syracuse is ...
How Much Heat Should David Kahn Get For Absolutely Butchering the Ricky Rubio Situation?
September 01, 2009 by
The Big Lead
| Comments
David Kahn went to Spain three times this summer in an attempt to broker a deal with Ricky Rubio. He failed. The flashy 18-year-old who the Timberwolves foolishly drafted 5th in June - one spot before taking another point guard, Jonny Flynn of Syracuse - has signed a two-year deal...

Wow! What a game. If you could not stay up to 1:40 am EDT last evening, you missed one of the greatest games in basketball history. Six overtimes. The final score was 127-117 Syracuse over Connecticut. But the Orange never led in any of the previous five overtime periods. Syracuse...
Thoughts on Wrapping up the Regular Season
March 11, 2009 by
Orange Hoops
| Comments
I am very happy with how the Orange finished out their regular season. They held tough with a good Villanova team, and then they won the final four games of the regular season to finish 23-8. The last four games were really promising. They beat St. Johns, Rutgers and Cincinnati, which...

The 2008-2009 season will be a very interesting season to watch play out. Coach Jim Boeheim has a killer schedule, an overabundance of talent at guard, and a team that could not close games last season.Syracuse lost two players from last season’s team: leading scorer Donte’ Greene...
9-0 and unstoppable Onuaku

Orange Hoops

Arinze Onuaku is off to terrific start to his junior campaign. He is averaging 13.3 points a game, with 7.8 rebounds, despite playing only 27 minutes a game (and typically not for foul trouble, but just to get some rest). However, those aren’t his impressive numbers. 79.4% is the...
2-0, Many to Go

Orange Hoops

The Orangemen are off to a 2-0 start. Manhandling LeMoyne was expected, and Richmond was a good early season challenge. I think like a lot of fans, I would have hoped for an easier win; partly because it would have been easier to watch, but also because it would have been an indicator...

Hoya Prospectus

In looking at the Hoyas' profile on KenPom for the 2008-2009 season, and particularly at the shooting defense, the Hoyas weren't a respectable defensive team in terms of FG% and 3FG%-not up to the standards of the defensively quite good 2007 and 2008 teams, but better than...
