Dartmouth is supposed to be playing Columbia tonight but somehow the Golden State Warriors showed up instead.

Columbia is going to win the league if they play like this.

What a beat down. And this was no fluke. Candidly, Columbia is better at every single position, is deeper, and is better coached. Their offense is incredibly efficient, where as Dartmouth had to really work to get off a quality shot. Very, very impressive victory. And Cornell, which everyone has viewed as bottom of the Ivy barrel, goes into Harvard and wins by DD. Could be an ugly weekend that seals the fate of the Big Green.

To hoopsdude. You don't know the Ivy League too well. Saturday games are very tough on road teams.

Time will tell , I may take back halfway through the season. Lol missing a key player. Guard play was terrible on defense. Not too good on offense either. Miles is awesome or woeful depending on the day. Tough game. Columbia eeks out a win on road with a much better team so I think 2nd road game is still very tough In this league.

You hit the proverbial nail on the head. Generally speaking, guard play has been horrendous all year. Dartmouth is the worst perimeter defending team I have ever seen. Every team we play gets paint touches ad nauseum. We turn average guards into stars. Very frustrating to watch.

Let's take it easy with the hyperbole
Yea, Columbia is darn good but the season series isn't over yet
Columbia lost to longwood at home; dart beat them by 24
Regarding our guards: yes it is an issue, but all the young ones are getting better and getting good experience
We need to bring in shooters and PGs who are a threat to penetrate/score and who don't turn it over
3:1 assist TO ratio
