I don't get up to the Pav for too many games but I got up there last night, went alone. I forgot just how much the game experience is influenced by the people around you since I usually go with buddies and talk to them all game ignoring those around me.
Hopefully, the guy I sat next to, who I have never seen before, is not on the board and I won't give specifics on where I sat. But this guy's ingame comments were so off base it was comical.
It was obvious he was a lifetime Nova fan. But jeez, he spent the entire game moaning about all the things that this team does wrong. You would have sworn we were down by 20 and a 5-10 team. It was mind-numbing. I got to hear:
1. Ochefu is a bum, he should dunk it every time he touches it.
2. Jenkins is a horrible defender, he shouldn't see the court.
3. Reynolds should never see the floor, ever. The entire 2nd half he couldn't figure out why he was playing and not DO (duh, DO is visibly injured).
4. Jay substitutes way too much and nobody has time to get into a rhythm.
5. All of our guards are soft and afraid to drive the ball into the lane and settle for 3s.
6. He yelled at Jenkins when he was backing down his man on the block that "That isn't your game, don't do it". Of course, KJ then drained a little fallaway J.
To make it even better, there was a guy behind me telling everybody that Marquette is going to great next year because they have two stud 6'11" sophomore big men in Fischer and Ellenson who are going to rule the Big East. I did not have the heart to tell him that Fischer is a junior and Ellenson is a frosh and there is a decent chance Ellenson may not ever be on the roster next year.
