(Perspectives After The Jump)
View from the Student Section - A Perspective from Campus:
Well boys and girls, this is a BIG one. 5 AM wake up call for this roadtrip. Let's not repeat our last performance when I was in MSG for a St. John's game in which we lost my freshman year in the BE Tourney. Let me be frank. This is not a good St. John's team. This team does not hold a candle to the one Lav had last year. Also, Lav isn't there... (best wishes for a speedy recovery though). The only thing that worries me is Moe Harkless (and to a lesser extent God's Gift). Both are forwards of a Kevin Jones offensive type, although neither rebounds the ball as well as Mr. Jones. That being said, the guard play of St. John's has been no bueno. This might be a game for Jason Clark and Markel Starks to find their rhythm once more. Please do not let depressed me be on TV for a second game straight (ESPN is a bunch of HDCs). Hoya Saxa.
View from the Court Side Seats - A Perspective from OldHoya:
A strong St. John's is a good thing for Georgetown. The best years of the Big East were dominated by Georgetown and St. John's, with Syracuse desperately trying to find a dance partner. That being said, to hell with the Redmen for the weekend, this is a must win game for Georgetown. OldHoya has had great times in MSG, and hopes that the Hoyas will too today.
View from the Enemy- A Perspective from our Sleeping With The Enemy Interview:
I think the Hoyas' height will be difficult on the Red Storm, and if G'Town doesn't turn the ball over, they have the game by 6-7.

JahidiLikesPie Nervous Level: |
OH CRAP |
I am not quite sure what to say. I think we are still in a man defense and I think Kilpatrick just went by Whittington again. This team should not have lost that game. The loss caused me to enforce a ban all sites associated with GU Hoops.
Sunday's game has become this years version of what seems like an annual event for our Hoyas. Come one, come all to watch this year's version of the 'Stem The Bleeding' game. SJU can be frighteningly good or frighteningly bad and GU lets their hot hand go the entire 2nd half without drawing up plays to put him in a position to score. So frustrating!!! I can't say that I am really nervous about the game, but I am disgustingly nervous about the prospects of us losing the game (OH CRAP!). My last GU/SJU MSG experience was spent with JGD and BoatsnHoes watching a nice fat LOSS with the SJU students.
This will be my 2nd time @ MSG this week. I went to my first Rangers game on Tuesday and I abstained from beer and it was one of the most frustratingly depressing experiences of my life. Let me just say that no such behavior will be tolerated on Sunday. I plan on being at Stout early AND late and I plan on drinking like a goddamn VIKING. Hey, what better way to celebrate our most famous civil rights leader than by nursing a viking-like hangover?!?!
View from the Sportsbook (via DonBest) - A Perspective from Vegas:
The Line: Georgetown -5.5
This is the first ever view from Vegas perspective that's coming straight at you from Las Vegas. Really looking forward to watching this game at fucking 9am after a night at Marquee and a million cigarettes.
The pick is Georgetown -5.5. Final score Hoyas 72 Johnnies 59.Casual Hoya is 8-8 ATS this season.
Last season: 18-14 ATS.
Overall: 48-30 ATS.www.CasualHoya.com: Where Your Money Stays And Plays.

I am sooooooo looking forward to another ESPN3 adventure
DHB Enterprises - January 15, 2012
I am very excited
to watch more pixels in motion.
J-Wall's Mom's Broom - January 15, 2012
Motion?
Your ESPN3 gets motion? I just get frozen images punctuated by C team announcers.
DHB Enterprises - January 15, 2012
I ponied up for the ESPN3 Premium
Moving pixels AND the only blackouts are self-induced. This is all in jest, of course (except for the rage blackouts).
J-Wall's Mom's Broom - January 15, 2012
Am I the only one who doesn't have massive problems?
Aside from sometimes getting locked out because ESPNU games aren’t shown if you have Comcast, I’ve never really had a problem.
Hoya Annoya - January 15, 2012
For the last three years
I had Comcast, and didn’t have too many problems. Now that I live in Alabama, I have something called “Knology” which seems a bit slower and is probably the root of my issues.
DHB Enterprises - January 15, 2012
Knology
Sounds like the southern abbreviation for “Technology”. I’m impressed they even got six of the letters right.
Hoya Annoya - January 15, 2012
You might could be onto something
(That’s actually something they say here. “Might could.” smh)
DHB Enterprises - January 15, 2012

The bar I’m at casually has the women’s game against cuse on next to the real game. At least one of them will go well. Right?

We ended the half on a 17-6 run
With plenty of opportunity to improve. The question is whether we can sustain the defensive presence while finding any kind of spark on offense.

If 3 goes back to man to man

6 turnovers

On the other hand
We kept the Johnnies from making a single 3 thus far.

There's that scoring we were waiting for
I don’t think SJU is going to start hitting from deep though
DHB Enterprises - January 15, 2012

Frustrated. And that caused the offensive foul
hoyafan03 - January 15, 2012 via iPhone app
5 thefts and a charge, right?
No random passes out of bounds or stomping on the baseline. I think that’s a slight improvement over recent games.

Really don’t like how Nate just slaps rebounds against the backboard

Really like how Nate slaps blocks against the backboard!
J-Wall's Mom's Broom - January 15, 2012
Except when he does THAT
nice block

haha yeah that comment was poorly timed
awesome block

Attaboy Nate
At least playing defense. Unlike hank
boumtje - January 15, 2012
Whoa
not sure I understand how Clark did that.
aja32 - January 15, 2012
I love when Refs take a running start to their emphatic charge calls
HoyafromBmore - January 15, 2012
1000 times no
I hope I’m missing ur sarcasm. We don’t watch the games for refs
hoyafan03 - January 15, 2012 via iPhone app
We sure don't
But if you don’t laugh at the over-zealous, running charge signal, then you are dead inside.
J-Wall's Mom's Broom - January 15, 2012
that's what I'm sayin!
It’s like rec baseball when you were a kid and the ump goes STTTEEEEEEEEERRRIIIIIIIIIIIIKKKEEEE
HoyafromBmore - January 15, 2012
Makes them vulnerable to the Daniel-San crane kick. Cahill needs one.
TouomouIsMyHomie - January 15, 2012
Although that one went in our favor
It’s disturbing to see how excited officials get to call offensive fouls
DHB Enterprises - January 15, 2012

WELCOME BACK, YOUNG GEORGETOWN TEAM THAT I LOVE
J-Wall's Mom's Broom - January 15, 2012
Oh look
Hollis is here
aja32 - January 15, 2012
Jason
With his first career pass on a fast break
Congrats
rochesterhoya07 - January 15, 2012
Ha. So true
boumtje - January 15, 2012
i think hollis will adjust with ease making 3s in the NBA
Ronny Thompson's Forehead - January 15, 2012
Hollis can keep shooting from the NBA three
As long as he keeps making them
Uninformed Person - January 15, 2012 via mobile
he leads the Big East in 3s. he can do what he wants.
Ipse Dixit - January 15, 2012
This.
Hollis can shoot Js all day long.
Brasky - January 15, 2012
why the hell are we being introduced to the st john's mock trial team?
i don’t have the attention span for this right now
Hoya Saxual - January 15, 2012 via mobile
Hollis is 3/3 this half
Bad Hollis gives way to Good Hollis? The second coming of BoBo?
HoyaSmacksYa - January 15, 2012
St Johns must be
Hurting for championships if they are honoring the mock trial team during a break.
Victor's Eyepatch - January 15, 2012 via Android app
St John's
is so SO bad at basketball offense.

Bleu de chanel from last week or the awful Tositos fiesta bag?
Ipse Dixit - January 15, 2012
Those Toyota (?) commercials are really bothering me
Tostitos bag the best of the worst.
J-Wall's Mom's Broom - January 15, 2012
I vote for the headphones commercial where the guy comes out of the subway station
Was big last semester. I think it was for headphones.

Poor Aaron
Looked bored in that huddle. Hope we can get him some minutes at the end of this one.

DAMNIT
Ronny Thompson's Forehead - January 15, 2012

Also, calling someone a “Non-Academic Qualifier” is a pretty egregious misplaced modifier, right? Don’t they mean “Academic Non-Qualifier”?
I understand that it’s not the announcer’s fault, but the NCAA’s fault.
timmadrid - January 15, 2012
Agreed
DHB Enterprises - January 15, 2012
And we score out of another Timeout?
Who is coaching these guys?!?

Did Hopkins miss the rim on that dunk attempt?
DHB Enterprises - January 15, 2012
Oh that dunk could have been epic
aja32 - January 15, 2012
Why are we SO BAD at dunking?
J-Wall's Mom's Broom - January 15, 2012
I'm willing to give Mikael a pass
in light of the potential thunderousness that the dunk possessed
rochesterhoya07 - January 15, 2012
Agreed
At least he tried. Would have been incredible. Hank would have gotten swatted
boumtje - January 15, 2012
No dunking drills since midnight madness
TouomouIsMyHomie - January 15, 2012
That's what I was thinking
I think it’s a safe bet that JT3’s practices are dunk-free affairs.
HoyaSmacksYa - January 15, 2012
continuation of the DaJuan curse?
remember izzo - January 15, 2012
At least he got the memo on
not going up soft for a layup
iheartgregmonroe - January 15, 2012
Would've been happier with a made lay-up
But I guess I shouldn’t complain about steps in the right direction, even if they’re baby steps
J-Wall's Mom's Broom - January 15, 2012
Jason hates passing ...
Almost as much as he hates terrorists.
Brasky - January 15, 2012

But we really need to push for a better shot than that
J-Wall's Mom's Broom - January 15, 2012
40 points for the team
or one player? courtesy of theory?
iheartgregmonroe - January 15, 2012
When the team hits 40.

Ronny Thompson's Forehead - January 15, 2012
One
DHB Enterprises - January 15, 2012
Not sure
Was just thinking that if there’s one thing I’d like to see him improve on, it’s being a more aggressive scorer against smaller teams.
J-Wall's Mom's Broom - January 15, 2012
I think he hit an 18 foot jumper from the top of the key
timmadrid - January 15, 2012
One
Off of two attempts.

Did ESPN drop one of our points?
Could’ve sworn we had 42 before Hollis’ open layup
rochesterhoya07 - January 15, 2012
scoreboard was screwy
looks like it adjusted
SomebodyBuyAustinaSteak - January 15, 2012
I'm shocked
to learn that we’re 2nd in the BE in FT%.
timmadrid - January 15, 2012
me too
aja32 - January 15, 2012
Need to foul harder
How many and-1’s have we given up?
J-Wall's Mom's Broom - January 15, 2012
Since the objective is to win
We should make some FTs and stop them from scoring
TouomouIsMyHomie - January 15, 2012
And make open layups
TouomouIsMyHomie - January 15, 2012
nice assist, jabril
Ipse Dixit - January 15, 2012
please please just put this game away

CAHILL MUST DIE
TouomouIsMyHomie - January 15, 2012
wtf was that call?
hoyabballownsall - January 15, 2012
ESPN3 froze
What was the call?
DHB Enterprises - January 15, 2012
clark hit a ridiculous fadeaway at top of key
as clock ran out, ruled it as charge. no basket
hoyabballownsall - January 15, 2012
Sounds about right
DHB Enterprises - January 15, 2012
"Fadeaway" being key
Making the “charge” ridiculous
TouomouIsMyHomie - January 15, 2012
its offensive
that they call that offensive
SomebodyBuyAustinaSteak - January 15, 2012
i see what you did there

Ipse Dixit - January 15, 2012
Jesus
5 point game, Porter with 4 fouls. Time to panic?

Yep

Ugh ESPN3
This video quality is like watching Hoyas for Atari. How did we get down to 3?! The blue dots were doing so much better than the white dots…

if cahill chokes to death on his whistle and I laugh
am i a bad person?

Porter and Whittington are great at getting putbacks
DHB Enterprises - January 15, 2012
figured out the dunking problem
He rebounds under the basket and he doesn’t have the angle to dunk.
This is true for all of them.

Greg can seal the deal
with 4 more ppg, one really sweet dunk, or a flowers+candy combo

Um, the Marquette game was one of our last three
HoyaSmacksYa - January 15, 2012
Rounding up
because every week with this team feels like a month? Possibly a disposition to glass-half-empty the student section? Or maybe just poor counting skills…
remember izzo - January 15, 2012
Wow amazing Hoya ... Saxa cheer from the faithful at the end
What an enjoyable way to end a trip to MSG! The hoya faithful were load and strong to ring in a victory this afternoon.
It was great to see the hoyas in NYC. My bro and I bought some late tix that were close enough to hit a 3 from the corner. We were load and proud to cheer on our boys in blue n gray. Awesome post game at Stout.
Go giants for a perfect Sunday in the making

Wow, Whit with almost a double double, too
Way to take care of business, boys
J-Wall's Mom's Broom - January 15, 2012
solid single-single though.
timmadrid - January 15, 2012
Those boys game to ball today… Yeeeeeeesh
yaboynyp - January 15, 2012
6 of Whit’s rebounds were offensive. Casual.
timmadrid - January 15, 2012
Our o-board totals would feel much more impressive
If we could nail more bunnies than a viagraless Hef.
HoyaSmacksYa - January 15, 2012
wait...
“nail more bunnies than a viagraless Hef”? So if Hef’s not on Viagra, he’s not nailing many bunnies? Is that your point? But he’s still Hef, so he’s nailing more bunnies than, say, you or me, right?
timmadrid - January 15, 2012
Yeah, the not-quite double negative there made this too difficult
But I couldn’t really come up with a penthouse letters-worthy joke about finishing at the rim.
HoyaSmacksYa - January 15, 2012
Never thought Id ever put the words Jason Clark and eight assists together but..
Clark with 8 assists? Whaaaaaaaaah? We’re back in the winners circle fellas!
