Realistic shot at our first victory tonight.
Posted this elsewhere:
My Lions are 0-14 and travel to NAIA (transitioning to D-1) Seattle and the game will be played in the Key Arena, former home to the Sonics. Should be a cavernous and spacious atmosphere for those few spectators.
Seattle has a tradition-rich basketball program (Elgin Baylor went there) and is noted in the poker world for producing John Juanda.
The Redhawks have played several D-1 teams tough and posted wins over La. Tech, CPSLO, and UC Irvine.
The depleted Lions are still searching for their first win and hope to find it in a winnable three-game stretch that included Seattle U., Cal-State Bakersfield, and WCC rival Pepperdine.

There is not a betting line for the game.
For informational/educational purposes I made the line:
Seattle -5.5
O/U 111.5

Premature playing "Celebration" on the radio.
Hope that the slow pace will help our lack of depth/fading at the end of games problem.

Very rough game to listen to. Down by 10 at the end. We are just too tired with only a 6 man rotation.

I would rather have Latimer in the game then Deric.

i would rather see a ten yr old in the game... it would be less agonizing... at least with a ten yr old you know he is not supposed to produce. Deric pisses me off so much because he is such a waste of a 6'10 body. It literally makes me sick and get a headache when watching him ATTEMPT to play college basketball.

“Marko will be a great addition to our program and will give us much needed depth in our front court,” said Tention. “He is a physical player who can really rebound the ball well and comes from a great program in Australia. We feel he will fit well into the things that we will be doing here at LMU.”

On the upside, Gonzaga lost to Utah.  |

With Matty gone, and Tim redshirting, Marko's really being exposed. |

MAN...I remember when Chris Ayer and Matty Knight began to get fat before their senior years. SERIOUSLY guys....gaining weight when you're on college sports team that requires insane amount of running?! |
