Foul on Bama for scoring points without letting SJ score

 

[Brandon Van de Graaff]

FUCK WRIGHTSELL INJURED AGAIN FUCK

The way he walked off, I'm betting calf cramp, but with his history..... scary.

 

[Bammerboy321]

Williamson is so fucking bad

 

[Bammerboy321]

Philon cannot be stopped right now

St. John’s playing in the Garden is going to be a very tough row to hoe. @rick4bama you and I are old enough to remember the old Big East basketball league back in the very late 70’s and early 80’s. That league was flat out tough!

Old enough to remember the Rocket Eight in 1955? Went 21-3 with the 3 losses all coming on a 4 game Christmas road trip. To UNC, ST John's in MSG, and ND in the Sugar Bowl Tournament. Did beat #10 Holly Cross.

 

[Bammerboy321]

This team is playing HARD

 

[Bammerboy321]

God Alabama is a 10-0 run away from destroying St John's

 

[Bammerboy321]

Gotta bury these dudes. Holloway is missing way too many shots

 

[rick4bama]

I watching a ticket tape of the game? What Bama player is playing his Butt off?

 

[Bammerboy321]

Ugh every time we go up 10...

 

[Bammerboy321]

All of them. But noticeably Amari Allen and Mallete have been attacking the glass to create 2nd chance opportunities. Haven't been able to cash in on them unfortunately.

Looking at the FT comparison St. John’s should be winning big time. They have been to the FT line something like 30 to Bama’s 13. WOW!!!!

 

[bamafan9201]

16 more FREE THROWS for Saint Johns...Bama been playing against two teams today, lol

 

[Bammerboy321]

Alabama is clearly the better team but they are keeping St John's in the game

 

[Bammerboy321]

Davion Hannah is back.

 

[alabama mike]

Dumb fouls are keeping SJ right in this game.
Holloway is a huge liability on defense but man can the kid shot the rock.
Philon is having a very good game.

 

[Bammerboy321]

Where is the damn defense guys
