Two kids, and two professional careers (Mrs. SHB and I), continuing education, and various and sundry other obligations later it's been a blessing at this point that my interest in following the team has declined proportionally to my ability to do so. ...

Re: The Squad

All that matters is minutes and results. Did the team improve appreciably when Rondae finally started? Not really. The slow starts conti...

Good things tonight
Lots of good things happened tonight: Allonzo Trier. Should start. Play him at center, I don't care. The T-shirt was less bad tonight but Trier is a star. Pitts. I'll disagree with my four-score-and-seventeen feline colleague. I liked what I saw from Pitts tonight. He had good chemistry with Ristic,...

Yes apparently College Basketball Reference only counts leaders from 1997 on even though it keeps stats from longer than that. Kind of pissed me off, actually. I hate being wrong about that shit.
But yes, he would need about 20 more. Not 4 more.
