Noooo....., Dupit is back.

Not much defense by either side early. Good to see Nick getting his first couple of shots to drop.

 

[Baz = Heisman]

Great turnout from the students lol

Nice assist from Page!

 

[PURPLECAT88]

It’s not always pretty, but I like seeing Ciaravino being aggressive.

Mills had 20 of their first 26…..

Let’s see if the Cats can play a decent 2nd half this time. Two programs having mediocre losing seasons struggling to recharge in advance of the conference tourney.

These teams suck and the end of half possession management by NU was dogshit

 

[Baz = Heisman]

Jayden Reid has an F grade basketball IQ. Dude thinks he’s tall when he’s a midget, and therefore gets easily blocked all the time.

 

[Purple Pile Driver]

If we don’t start defending the interior, I am going to be unhinged.

 

[TheC]

My god are we a lousy team.

 

[Baz = Heisman]

Horrible team. Do we even want to get out of the bottom 4 or is it better to get booted early and then run Reid and Page to O’Hare?

But he has such a good A/T ratio...

Kropp is getting beaten badly off the dribble and on the glass. Page hasn’t been good, but at least he has a chance.

 

[WestCoastWildcat]

Cats rally but still have issues w/ turnovers & weak rebounding. Finally others making threes.

Does Kropp know how to jump for a rebound???? My god.

Clayton has been awesome. Really happy for him.

Jordan Clayton legacy game! Legit pumped for him. He’s a GREAT dude from everything I’ve heard.

Way to go Cats to break their losing streak but still an ugly win. Good thing they made an inordinate number (for NU) of threes. Bottom dweller battle won by the Cats.

 

[AdamOnFirst]

They probably should have considered guarding Jordan Clayton

honestly the Cats did the same pathetic **** late that’s cost them countless other games, they were just up so big against such a poor opponent without shotmaking that it didn’t matter

when Gelo fumbled that one out of bounds I still thought they were maybe gonna lose

He was my kids counselor at camp two years ago and when they did the team signatures this year he stopped when he saw my son turned to the other players around him and said “guys remember Nolan this kid balls out”. That made his year hearing that from him. I’ll forever be a fan of his for that.
