He still was the game's leading scorer at 30 points. The three pointer he made as time expired to end the first half was quite the "clinic" in my book.

You know the old saw, "If you have a quarterback controversy, you don't have a quarterback"?

This is something like that. If you have one player scoring half of your points, you don't have a team.

Exactly - which to my mind means Jimmer still has a lot to learn.

Luckily for LA, Kolbe hasn't learned that lesson yet.

That shows how little you know about basketball. You play to win. You don't keep track of how much you or your teammates are scoring at all, if you're a team player. If you happen to score half the team's points in the process, that might mean you didn't pass well enough. It also might mean that the rest of the team isn't good at scoring.

Basketball was invented by a Canadian.

BTW: USU, with 5 RMs among their top 7 players, is now rated # 15 in the RPI, 17th in the coaches' poll, won their league title by 5 games, their league tourney title, and are going to the show.

And all their RMs actually served full missions (one a service mission). Unlike one or two other "RMs" on a certain other team who . . . didn't.

Come back from the dark side, you Mormon BB fans. Do yourself a favor and become an Aggie fan. You'll never regret it.

Dude, I know a thing or two about basketball. High-scoring superstars have to help develop their teammates, otherwise, you get an unbalanced team.

I know, I mean, how did they ever get that 30-4 record?

Let's see what happens when Jimmer is gone, and what that says about his leadership skills. Same time next year?
