    2015 Diamond Head Classic in Hawaii

    Holiday Tourney time!

    http://espnevents.com/diamond-head-classic/bracket/


    First two games were pretty competitive. We are certainly the favorite to win this thing but need to play well.

    Re: 2015 Diamond Head Classic in Hawaii

    I'll be up in the stands in the corner from where the players enter. 10 rows up. Red OU cap. Beard, glasses. I expect a close one. Maybe I'll be wrong, maybe I won't.

    Go Sooners !!

    5-0
    BOY HOWDY !!!!

    Just turned it on. Wazzu looks like it has a couple of trees on the inside as they've blocked a couple of shots. Shouldn't be hard to spot 5-0 as it doesn't look like there's many fans in the stands. 7-zip OU/ TO. 16:42 left in the 1st.

    Might be in for a close one so far. Little sloppy at times..

    yeah, little frustrating. Not playing our game...give wazzu credit slowing it down when they need to.

    That one possession I swear the wsu dude traveled, carried, double dribbled...lol and THEN got the bucket. Manyang needs to go TO THE BUCKET...he frickin fades everytime...USE YOUR SIZE

    Agree, heck both Manyang and Lattin need to learn how to explode and attack.

    Nice finish to the half, Buford looks like he came to play!

    Re: 2015 Diamond Head Classic in Hawaii

    yup.

    Buford def had the nice put back dunk. I'm pretty confident OU will win, but it'll be close. Northern Iowa is next prob...they just beat isu last week. Another tough game.

    lol, guess we don't need the 5ft turn around...the tip off the pass will work.

    The game is at 4pm Hawaii time. You'll have to do the math.

    A very fun evening as both my team and my adopted teams won.

    I'm trusting most of you watched the OU game. OU took care of business and except for a good point guard to keep things under control, played the 2nd teamers much of the 2nd half for some good experience.

    Hawaii really came to play Northern Iowa. They came out and defended the '3' and used a tenacious D to keep No. Iowa off balance. Two of Hawaii's main guys were in foul trouble and saw limited time but the subs played very well. Hawaii's 6th man, Fleming had 6 steals, most in the 2nd half and turned the game into Hawaii's favour. If OU continues to take care of business they should handle Hawaii.

    Another factor......the crowd. The place was subdued while OU was playing but it was rocking during the Hawaii game. Night and day. If Hawaii stays close the crowd will be a factor. Another factor might be the start time of the game is 4pm here and some fans will still be at work.

    Nice to see Lon Kruger in person again. Last time I saw him I was booing him as he played the point for KSU.

    5-0
    BOY HOWDY !!!!

    Manyang looks like he tries to pattern his post offense to something like Hakeem Olajuwon.......he isn't quite there yet.

    Re: 2015 Diamond Head Classic in Hawaii

    No, but Manyang has a very nice touch for such a big guy, and surprising athleticism. Once it all comes together for him, he's going to be a star--here and at the next level too.

    I'd rather have a guy who has finesse and a shooting touch, and try to teach him to bang, rather than the other way around.

    Re: 2015 Diamond Head Classic in Hawaii

    The main thing I saw from this game? James, Buford, Odomes, and Manyang have all improved a lot in the last 6 weeks. Especially James and Buford. It's scary to think how good, and how deep, this team could be by February!

    Re: 2015 Diamond Head Classic in Hawaii

    I'd rather play Hawaii than NI...we've already played at Memphis, so I'm sure crowd won't be that big of an issue.

    Yeah, I stayed up and watched. We do look special sometimes, several guys said OU is def a final 4 team, one even said they are the best team in country right now. We def rely on guard play, but if we can get 25 points and 20 rebounds from the post every night we should be good.

    Manyang, yeah I still think he's "recovering" from his foot issue. I do like his "touch" but there was some times when he needed to back down and power up a shot.

    Buddy is just WOW...dang he can take over a game no doubt.

    Subs looked solid last night. Definitely look forward to the season.
