.......here is what I am looking for early on tonite......the first trey attempt to go in, Harris not pick up a foul in the first two minutes, make our first free throw, force a turnover and transition to easy hoop, set the tone early.......and go on to solid win......

As a reminder, Shaidzon will be open from 5-7 tonight before the game. I am going to try to swing by with my son.

What I most want to see tonight is easy offense. Less tough two's, less over dribbling, good A/TO rate, ball not getting stuck in Cyril or Fatts hands for long stretches. Better efficiency metrics. Don't expect LIU to be a tough defensive test, so all the more reason for us hopefully to show a more diversified and harder to guard attack. I will be worried if we get majority of our points due to being bigger/faster/stronger vs more skilled.

How can a team come out sleepwalking in their first game of the year? I'm sorry, if that happens, it's on the coach.

Lets see a nice double digit victory with atleast one of the freshman showing they belong on the court. Ease a little bit of the depth nervousness.

I don't expect we will see the Rams going through the motions . I really expect max effort tonight, especially from the new guys
and Dana, Jermaine and Tyreese . They all want to make a statement.

Just renewed my espn+ subscription for the first time since last Feb or March. One month only, then I'll see if it's worth the Disney/hulu/espn bundle for $12.99.

Clark, regarded as the best player in the NEC this year, is out tonight. Must serve a 1 game suspension - something about / minutes he played his freshman year. Bottom line LIU without their best player tonight.
