Subject: BYU squeeks by Memphis state in OT
Originator: jpd@camino.austin.ibm.com
Date: Wed, 23 Dec 1992 13:54:56 GMT
Organization: IBM Austin


BYU squeeked by Memphis State last night (73 - 67) in a great overtime game.  
BYU pretty much dominated the first 2/3 of the game, but MSU came back from
a 12 point deficit to take the lead late in the game.  

Hardaway (sp?) was awesome.  At times he was the entire MSU offense and 
defense.  This guy's gonna be an NBA star someday.  He can shoot the 3,
pass, penetrate AND play defense (he had a few blocks).  Wow.

Anyway, BYU came back to tie the game at 63 with 6 seconds left, but
couldn't pull ahead.  So, MSU forced the OT.  MSU jumped out with an
early 3 point lead by an alley-oop (and free throw on a foul) to, guess who, 
Hardaway.  He almost jumped over the backboard to get that one!.  It kind of
deteriorated for MSU from there.

BYU was down by 1 in OT with about a minute left, and Nixon (the crook) sank a 3
to give BYU a 2-point lead.  A couple of turnovers, which BYU capitalized on 
ended the game at 73-67.  All in all a great game -- one of the most intense
I've seen this season, but BYU went flat late in the game.  They just kept on
passing around the perimiter until either the ball was stolen or the shot clock
got so low that they had to shoot.

So, BYU gets to play Duke in the finals.  My prediction is Duke 95, BYU 65.
Duke is just too good.

Let's not get too cocky Boiler fans - we're known for NOT going beyond the
2nd round in the NCAA.  Not the mention, the Big Ten season hasn't even
started yet.  Asside from that, it should be pointed out that Purdue is
really THE Indiana university.  The "other" university just happens to be
named after the state.  :-)

He substituted well, but Rose did not have a clue as to how much time was
left on the shot clock before throwing up that wild 35 footer (and this
was right in front of the UM bench).  Also, UM wasted all their timeouts
because UM did not have a clue as to what to do when one of their
players picks up the dribble.

This is a good team, but there were some pretty good UNC teams in the
past decade, even though they didn't win an NCAA championship.  At least
once during that span (maybe twice?) UNC went 14-0 in the ACC regular
season.  That's hard to do.

I don't think their ballhandling is very good.  The only guy I trust
with the ball against pressure defense is Phelps.  Rodl is pretty good
about not turning the ball over, but it still surprises me every time
he gets it up the court.  Calabria also looks like he can handle it,
but we have to wait and see what happens when they play a good team.
They need to cut down on the unforced turnovers.

The first two that come to mind are Kenny Smith's broken wrist (1984?)
and Steve Hale's rib injury (in-Hale, out-Hale).  It seems like they
always miss some key player for part of the season, and they frequently
get hurt in practice.

Oklahoma was ranked 9th, BYU was not ranked
Oklahoma was a 1.5 pt favorite over BYU (despite the proximity of Provo
to Wendover's sports book)

BYU lost to Weber State (The game that was questioned as to the "Upset" label)
BYU barely beat Utah State at Provo

Au Contraire!  Home Team Sports (out of DC, and available in Durham, at
least) carries Prime programming when the Caps and Bullets are not at
home - so there is a chance.

Or, for all you folks out there, try your local sports bar - the Damon's

My conclusions about the Maui invitational....

A great team was invited....maybe, two...Duke and Oklahoma

Several good teams were invited...

And some marginal teams....

Duke has just as much of a right to the number 1 spot as a half
a dozen other great teams.  They look like a Regional Finalist and beyond...

BYU was out of their game against Duke.  Duke magnified BYU's weaknesses.
Hopefully, BYU can use this game film constructively and build toward
March Madness...the Big Dance...the Sweet 64....well, er, a let's start
with the WAC race...

Yeah, he is not "strong" or strong looking anyway. I would think the
strongest part of his body would be his legs. And I do agree that
considering his position, he doesn't need a lot of strength (upper body
strength that is). I saw a little of John Stockton the other day, and I
can see the similarities between he and Bobby. 

I wonder where Hurley gets his stamina from? It truely is amazing to me. I
would be willing to bet that extra upper body mass would slow him down too.

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't some guy named O'Neal at LSU have a bit
of trouble at the foul line yet some folks thought he may someday be a 
star :-).

I really don't know about this. I can see FSU getting to the sweet-16 again,
but there are some key problem areas for FSU right now. First, injuries. 
Chuck Graham, and excellent shooter and defender, is out for the season. We
called upon him all of last year when we needed "instant offense", and now he
is gone. Andre Reid, though he hasn't played up to expectations at FSU, is
FSU's only experienced center (John Kerner...the only other true center...is
a freshman). His hand injury may or may now be a factor when ACC competion
starts...we'll have to wait and see. Another problem FSU has right now is at
the point. Though Cassell is a good scoring guard, he is just not the same
kind of point guard that Ward is. Ward won't be back to the team untill early
January, and it will take a while for him to get back into B-ball shape.
If everything works out, then FSU should make it to the big dance again. But
I don't know, I have a bad feeling about this year for some reason. FSU will
not win the championship though IMHO.
