Bradley 87 - NW Mizzoo 59

"Bradley goes north, by Northwest Missouri St."

That is pretty bad. But the worst one I have ever read sticks in my mind from several years ago. Wichita State had a player named Maurice Evans, who was pretty good. After he helped WSU to a win in Peoria, the headline was
"Some people call me Maurice, some people call me the gangster of hoop".

from a flipped line in the song "The Joker" by the Steve Miller Band:

I doubt many people reading it had a clue.
 
One more comment on the BU-NWMS game.

Is there anyone left who still wonders why JJ Tauai is important to Bradley?

Did you all see who started this game?
It was a lineup of Ruffin, Will, Crouch, Zach, and Salley.
Not a bad lineup, but right away I was wondering why JL wasn't going with JJ at the start.
JJ Tauai started the game on the bench.

At 15:30 when JJ came to the scorer's table to enter the game, BU was already down 12-2, and from there BU outscored NWMS 88-47. Call it coincidence if you want, but JL realized what he needed to do to turn the game around, and at 15:30 he did it.
Whattya wanna bet Jim Les puts JJ back into the starting lineup next Saturday?
 
Nobody is a bigger JJ fan than me,
but I am not sure how things would have been any different with him starting. They got good shots, and they just weren't falling. Would JJ have been able to make those shots go in?
 
I dunno
but you do the math.

Before JJ -- BU down 12-2
After JJ -- BU up 86-47

My intuition says JL notices same and starts JJ next Sat.
 
JJ needs to start looking to take some shots because the other teams will just sag off him and double the shooters..........he needs to look to score this year! :wink:
