What a bizarre article. Short, unfocused, taking what sound like casual quotes from Roy and putting them in an odd context.
I'm glad that III runs a tight ship as well, but this article is a head scratcher.

What a bizarre article. Short, unfocused, taking what sound like casual quotes from Roy and putting them in an odd context. I'm glad that III runs a tight ship as well, but this article is a head scratcher. It's pretty damn obvious. The author interviewed Roy, asked him about the obvious parallel to his three versus uconn't, and also asked him about Vern and Jeremiah's comments, got some quotes on that (good solid, not-throwing-anyone-under-the-bus comments) and then patched the two together in a story about handling III's system. This is what we want a freaking Hoyas beat reporter to do, like chasing down VT's coach for his synopsis on Vee (cf. the "meteor" thread further down the board).

Funny, I still am stalked by Hoya dreams about Roy Hibbert, too. ;D
Wonder if Jon will see this and come back somewhere with a retort. Seems it's all in good fun though.

I'm not sure how exactly Jon screwed up this play but it looks more like he was supposed to make a baseline cut but the UConn D read that.

I am going with Ca on this one - my guess it that JW and Roy are tight enough that this comment is taken in the lighthearted spirit most probably intended.

Seriously, people? Not only am I certain Roy's comment was all in good fun, but Boz' comment was obviously a joke. One, it's Boz. Two, it's obviously a joke.
Sometimes I wonder about this board.

I'm just sayin'...who's to know whether there would have been a fist fight in the locker room had Hibbert not drained it and UConn had won in OT?
Seeing as how these two are going to be running the country someday, I think it's important that they get along.
;D <--- universal Hoyatalk symbol for "I'm joking," in case some haven't picked up on that.

My guess is that Jon would say "he's right, I messed up on that play".

I wonder if it's the play that wakes him up in a sweat edited.

I noticed that Roy has made at least one 3 this year. Jon was no where to be seen.

Roy did look around and hesitate before making The Shot! Of course, since he made the 3, it was by design.

Jon didn't mess anything up. He knew Roy could knock that baby down and he was gonna force him to shoot it!

Any one else assume when reading the title that there was a HoyaTalk poster called "Hoya Dreams" who was caught stalking Hibbert?
