How'd that work out for you last time?

Unfortunately really well. He scored 4 points today Nigel while his man scored 22 and MSU lost the game with inept offense and inability to stop Lyles from penetrating or deterring jump shots.

But I am not here to celebrate it.

Huh. Tum Tum was on Lyle the whole game?

You thought assists were important after the last game, but not now?

Why does your criteria seem to change?

You guys are arguing about a team that is very inconsistent. You're both right.

Freshmen can't play on the road. Upperclassmen are hot and cold. I hope we can pull an NCAA appearance off but I worry we can't.

But Nigel is panicking.

It doesn't change. Oh holy f***iing hell does it never change. Sorry, but for my own sanity and the good of the board I am going to have to put you on ignore along with Death Roe. Unlike Death Roe, yours might be temporary because I actually enjoy you making a fool out of yourself. But I just can't take your nonsense right now trying to celebrate losses because 2+2 doesn't equal 4.

Thanks for talking about me, Herbie. I miss you too, pal.

Have a good night. :)

And FTR, I love Tum. My kids have taken pictures with him, he gave a great speach at their camp. He is an incredible kid, etc.. I really don't want to be put in this corner ripping on him when I am rooting for him.. I hope his 8 assists is now a trend despite that he had 3 or less in the previous seven games just as I had hoped his 13 points was a trend after doing it for a 3rd time despite that he had 5 or less points in the 15 other games.
I want so badly for him to pull through and he is such a competitor that I can't doubt that he will do it. But he is also halfway through his junior year and most of the same patterns are still repeating. So I guess it is a question of my heart vs my head. Maybe Nigel has the same problem. I can't believe he is this stupid even though he has never demonstrated any hoops knowledge

Nigel and muffy are both msu shills. You have to realize that and not engage them.

Oh. I could tell by your posts that you love him and are rooting for him.

I don't see this team getting to the NCAA tourney. Might have a shot at winning the NIT though. Do we hang that banner if it happens?

I looked at some recent bracketology yesterday morning that had eight B1G teams in, with MSU being a #8 seed. It obviously didn't take into account the loss to tOSU yesterday.
