Got my championship gear ordered!

What an incredible year for Alabama athletics

If we can start hitting open 3s, we are going to go deep in the tourney

I think Trendons heart was with Bama but family taking money won out.

Y'all might hate me for saying this, but I finally feel good about this team again. They just took the A games of two really talented and motivated tournament bound teams and won


I feel great about them. They're back in a groove and are locked in.

If we shoot it better we can win every game we play.




Yep and we just had two tough games in a row where we weren't shooting great but stayed in the game and didn't fold. With our defense, even on a poor shooting not, we should still be able to beat most teams we play (poor doesn't mean ice cold from everyone) as we can usually find one or two guys with a hot hand.

Now if we can get petty rolling and can get hot from 3 like we did in January, this team can go really deep.

Not that we were ever playing poorly, but I do think we’ve sort of gotten our mojo back.

It would be nice if Petty could get in the gym and figure his shot out. It would also be great if Bruner could get healthy. I feel good about the first part, and less good about the second one. But I wouldn’t say I’m worried about anything. We’re playing well, and this season has been too much fun to waste time worrying.

Our floor is just so damn high because of all the stuff we consistently do well.

The only variable at this point is outside shooting.

Meh. He was 18 when he signed. It was his choice. LSU is admittedly a better system for his skill set, but he's still a mercenary. He is the one who has to live with it though.

They let them play - both teams were hacking a bit with a lot of no-calls. I think a few more calls should probably have been made, but they kept it consistent on both teams and throughout the game - which I think is the most important thing


100%. You figure out how they're a game over the first half, and tend to adjust. It's when they're unpredictable, that I get upset. They definitely didn't call a few hacks. But they did it on both sides of the court.

Watford made some money today. Impressive.

We did a good job of not doubling down though. You couldn't leave those shooters open even when he was dominating us.

2 vs 3

Watford impressed the hell out of me today more with his competitive fire than his great play.

He decided he wasn't going to go out against Alabama with some poor efforts and he was locked the fvck in.

He almost single handedly beat us. He was in the zone. I hope he goes pro, don't want to play against him any more after today.

Yeah I hadn’t really been impressed with Watford all season. He was the best player in he court most of the game today, and we really isn’t have an answer for him.

This team is good. Shack is our most consistent offensive player. JQ is becoming a monster. Petty never gives up. Herb may be the best all around player on the court at any given time.

All the pieces are coming together. Deep run incoming.

He has a very specific game and it felt like he'd tried to play outside of that a lot this year

But man he played his game today
