Sad Picture

I was looking through my MU game photos .. I get too depressed after losses to post pictures.

Saw this one and immediately recognized its significance.

Let's call it: "DJ's Last Shot"

DJ's shot was pure for 3.

50 seconds later, he left the game, ending his Warrior career.

Looks like MJ's last shot against Utah

bring on St. John's

Move on indeed! If he'd have missed that shot during the course of a game, you'd have cursed him for his 3-pt jacking. He was a great player and we'll hopefully see him playing at the next level. Bigger fish to fry now that we're down to the short rows.

Man, you guys are sensitive.

I put up, what I think is an historic image, as an homage to DJ, one of the greatest PGs MU has ever had .. and you guys want me to move on?

Crimeny.

Nothing wrong with Dominic blowing away the field in the voting for the Bob Cousy Award as well. Hey, there's time between games, whether its a strand on Wade last night or remembering DJ. We are focused on St. John's, but there's only so much that can be analyzed on the current team.
